Black Coffee’s stellar career includes a Grammy Award win in 2022 for Best Dance/Electronic Album with his sixth studio album Subconsciously. He has performed across five continents, taking his music to 82 countries each year. His five-season, 21-week residency at Hi Ibiza, and collaborations with global superstars like Alicia Keys, Drake, Pharrell, Usher, David Guetta, and Diplo, showcase the magnitude of his impact on the electronic music scene.

Black Coffee’s crossover into pop stardom

Beyond his Grammy-winning album Subconsciously, which cemented his place as one of the most innovative voices in electronic music, Black Coffee has collaborated with many of the industry’s elite. His work with artists like Drake, on the Honestly Nevermind EP, and Alicia Keys, on In Common, highlights his ability to transcend genres and create deeply emotional, textured tracks. These collaborations have helped broaden his influence far beyond the house music community.

Black Coffee’s five-season residency at Hi Ibiza further solidified his place as a global icon. Performing for 21 weeks each year, he brought a diverse mix of African-inspired beats, house, and techno to one of the world’s most renowned clubbing destinations. His performances in Ibiza became synonymous with cutting-edge production, high-energy sets, and an atmosphere that drew people from all corners of the globe.
