“My new album took me back to my roots”, DJ Cuppy speaks on Inspiration behind ‘Original Copy’

Popular Nigerian DJ and singer, Florence Otedola, better known as DJ Cuppy, says ‘Original Copy’, her recently released debut album, took her back to her roots.

According to the billionaire’s daughter, she remains unperturbed by the project’s success in the long run.

In a statement to TheCable Lifestyle on Monday, Cuppy said she visited her family’s farm in Epe, Lagos, where she recorded series of ambient and animal sound samples used in the album.

“I went back to my roots, where I am from; Epe and mixed with the locals for inspiration, I visited my family’s farm and recorded lots of ambient and animal sound samples. If you listen very carefully you can hear these in each track,” she said.

“I am so proud that the album is now out. For me it’s not about numbers and statistics and charts. It’s about the fact that I was able to focus and actually achieve my dream of having an album,” she added.

“So honestly, I’m already happy regardless of what happens. Nonetheless, I encourage everyone to join this journey and I hope they enjoy listening as much as I enjoyed making this album.”
