Nota Baloyi fires back at Black Coffee with bold money laundering claim

Posted on July 29, 2025

Nota Baloyi has once again found himself at the center of controversy, this time clashing with internationally acclaimed DJ Black Coffee.

The outspoken podcaster didn’t take kindly to Coffee’s comments during a resurfaced interview, where the Grammy-winning DJ said he would never hire someone like Nota to manage his brand.

“I wouldn’t want to be managed by a guy like that,” Coffee said, suggesting that Nota’s personality and quest for dominance wouldn’t align with a professional brand.

“You could get a guy like that to manage you, but you’re not aware of his persona, and you’ve given him your entire brand.”

In a fiery response posted on X (formerly Twitter), Nota didn’t hold back.

He took a sharp jab at Coffee, writing, “I’m not laundering drug money, that’s why!”

The cryptic but heavy accusation has left many speculating whether Nota was directly accusing the DJ or making a general swipe at industry figures.

The comment has reignited debate online, with some questioning Nota’s credibility, while others scrutinize the seriousness of his claim.

Nota has previously been entangled in legal drama with other musicians, and his latest outburst only adds fuel to his reputation for stirring controversy.
