The party’s aftermath saw a mix of praise and criticism online, with some users commenting on his family dynamics, as well as his relationship with girlfriend Victoria Gonzalez.

In response to the trolls, Black Coffee took to X (formerly Twitter) to reveal his protective and fatherly side.

“Troll me, demonize me all you want until maybe you feel better about yourself but please please leave my kids out of it,” he penned.

His message to trolls has garnered mixed reactions, with some understanding where he’s coming from as a parent, while others have expressed that none of the posts were about the children but rather about him.
