By Oluwarantimi Oludase  ‎

‎Popular Nigerian disc jockey Florence Otedola, best known as DJ Cuppy, has sparked conversations over her view that philanthropy is more important than music.


‎Taking to her X handle, the daughter of billionaire Femi Otedola, revealed that music is amazing, but she is more drawn to philantrophy.


‎She further added that people won't remember the noise, but remember one's impact in their lives.


‎She wrote:
‎"Music is amazing, but philanthropy means more to me now."


‎When you die, people won’t remember the noise, they’ll remember how you made them feel…"


‎Many netizens disagreed with DJ Cuppy's take, and took to the comment section to air their views.


‎One Akitiolu wrote,"Yet music can give many hope

‎You can touch more lives from ur words and remove many from depression.

‎So trust me philanthropy can work alongside music."


‎One Ikenna wrote,"Music is now noise ? That’s rich coming from someone who tried to make it with all the money in the world and still couldn’t chart on the least platform.

‎Stop talking down on Musicians and their crafts just because you failed at it."


‎One Esen wrote,"I bet no one really knows the name of the most popular philanthropist, till they probably Google it."


‎One Befrank wrote,"Tupac died over 2 decades ago

‎But his music lives on
‎Impacting lives
‎So depending on what you're singing."

‎One MR. MAKANAKI wrote,"Philanthropy is something you could do while still doing music… Follow the footsteps of your father and you’ll leave a blueprint just like him💯

‎Raise people, I don’t mean dashing people 1million… Give people life changing opportunities!

‎God bless your endeavor."
