Meanwhile, Nigerian DJ and artist DJ Cuppy has faced a barrage of criticism from Nigerians on social media for her seemingly insensitive response to the untimely death of street hop artist Mohbad. The news of Mohbad’s passing broke on the evening of Tuesday, September 12, sending shockwaves throughout the Nigerian music community.
Amidst the outpouring of condolences and tributes from fellow artists and fans mourning Mohbad’s tragic demise, DJ Cuppy posted an unexpected message that left many perplexed. Instead of offering condolences or acknowledging her colleague’s passing, she posted a rather unrelated statement that read, “Please which application form do I fill to become a CITY GIRL ???? 😔🙅🏽♀️😮💨📑.”
This unusual response caught the attention of Nigerians on social media, who swiftly flooded Cuppy’s comment section with criticism, lambasting her for her seemingly insensitive behavior during such a somber moment. Despite the mounting backlash, DJ Cuppy has maintained silence and refrained from addressing the issue.
In stark contrast, several notable artists and prominent figures within the music industry have expressed their deep sadness and condolences over the loss of the talented artist Mohbad. The tragedy has united the Nigerian music community in grief, with many sharing their fond memories and paying tribute to the late artist’s contributions to the music scene.
