Currently signed to Roc Nation and Red Velvet Music Group, Cuppy has been deejaying since she was 16 years.She started off in London and has since grown in the craft, earning herself a slot to play as the resident DJ for the 2014 MTV Africa Music Awards in Durban, South Africa.
DJ Cuppy was born in Lagos, Nigeria and lived around Illupeju and Ikeja before leaving the country to study Business Economics at King’s College London.
She graduated from King’s College in July 2014 and added a master’s degree in Music Business from the New York University in May, 2016.
The 23-year-old is the daughter of billionaire industrialist Femi Otedola.
She also plays as the in-house DJ for the MTV show, Uncommon Sense.
Born Florence Otedola, Cuppy has played at elite events across the country since she rose to fame in the last few years.
The DJ daughter of oil magnate Femi Otedola obviously looks ready to take the industry by storm despite the competitive nature of Nigerian entertainment.
In March, 2016, she was part of the Nigerian delegate that spoke at the SXSW (South by South West) entertainment forum in Austin, Texas where key issues were discussed with respect to further positioning the Nigerian entertainment industry.
Other Nigerian speakers at the event were Michael Ugwu of Sony Africa, Ademola Ogundele (founder, Notjustok) and Ovie Ofugara (head of content, Notjustok).
