Black Coffee: Music helped me escape my demons

Johannesburg - We've all heard how "last night a DJ saved my life" but in the case of DJ Black Coffee, music may have literally saved his life.

Taking to Instagram recently, Black Coffee got as deep as the ocean and revealed a little about his childhood struggles.

"I grew up not a very happy child.....quite withdrawn and literally living in my own dream world," he wrote.

In those dark days Black Coffee only had music to help him fight of his "demons".

"Psychologically I think this is why music became a big part of my life to escape my own demons but most importantly to heal other people and help them let go," he says.

Well then, let the music play Dr Black Coffee!
