The video is full of isolated people looking into empty space; during the clip\u2019s dramatic peak, one character kneels on the pavement and shouts at the sky, nearly overcome by longing. Before his outburst, the vocalist Msaki sings simply, \u201cmy dreams are of you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Black Coffee mastered a specific style of house \u2014 gentle but heavily syncopated, friendly to both dancers and wallflowers \u2014 on tracks like \u201cTurn Me On\u201d with Bucie. He later rocketed to international fame after being sampled by Drake for the\u00a0<em>More Life\u00a0<\/em>track \u201cGet It Together.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But instead of using the Drake spotlight to flood the market with new music, like so many Drake collaborators before him, Black Coffee tried a different strategy. In the nearly two years since \u201cGet It Together\u201d came out, he\u2019s remained quiet, focused almost entirely on DJing.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s not to say he\u2019s been completely silent. Black Coffee contributed to David Guetta\u2019s bloated double album\u00a0<em>7\u00a0<\/em>in 2018. But fans looking for the Black Coffee sound have been forced to try to find it elsewhere \u2014 or revisit the oldies.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/black-coffee-wish-you-were-here-video-794951\/\" target=\"_blank\">via:: Rolling Stone<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The South African DJ and house producer Black Coffee released a yearning video for the single \u201cWish You Were Here\u201d on Friday.
