Florence ‘DJ Cuppy’ Otedola, an England-based Nigerian disc jockey, says she has been in several situations where people had told her she get shows because of her dad.
The daughter of billionaire businessman Femi Otedola said if she had been a carpenter, her dad would still have supported her.
“My dad has always been super supportive; If I had wanted to be a carpenter all he would say is make sure you do it well. For me it has always been that whatever I do, I have to do it with an entrepreneurial spirit”.
When asked about her favourite Nigerian artistes, she said: “I am a DJ; it’s my job to pay everyone’s music. It is about who is making good music”.
Speaking about the scathing remarks she has gotten from fans, she said: “I always call my dad a bit of a cloud, which is lingering over me, but I also work really hard. I think it is a gender thing and as women, we have to work twice as hard to get our voices out there. Whenever I get to perform, people have already decided. I then hear things like ‘she is rubbish, she only got this show because of her dad’, It is really painful”.
