Black Coffee Makes His Son Esona, Director Of His Two Companies

Black Coffee empowers his son, Esona “Sona” Maphumulo, making him South Africa’s wealthiest young boss.

According to City Press, the DJ’s real name is Nkosinathi Maphumulo, and he has quietly named his son as the director of the Soulistic Agency and the Black Coffee Foundation.

The DJ is said to have resigned as a director of the Black Coffee Foundation and passed the baton to his son, who joined Maphumulo’s sister Nomalungelo and mother Sindiswa Dandala on the board.

Nomalungelo, Black Coffee’s sister, reportedly refused to comment on the news and referred all questions to her brother.

“In a statement shared by Nomalungelo earlier, the foundation said it had been involved in collaborations with gym company Virgin Active SA to raise funds for disadvantaged people and the Mthatha Food Bank in the Eastern Cape.”

“According to company registration details, Tyolo’s involvement in the business was recorded in 2020, a month before he turned 21. This after his father resigned from Soulistic Agency and handed over the reins to the budding musician, making him the sole director.”
