Nigerian disc jockey, artist and philanthropist Florence Ifeoluwa Otedola also known as DJ Cuppy, recently made headlines by hosting and moderating a segment of the United Nations General Assembly . This event marked a historic moment for both African music and global leadership, reflecting the rise of young creatives on international platforms.
When people think about creatives or creativity, it is often seen in a single light of entertainment whether it be through music, writing, painting etc. and is often seen as unprofound, uninspiring, or a mere hobby. Like others before her, DJ Cuppy’s journey to hosting the UNGA reveals the versatility of creativity across different spheres and illustrates that creativity is not just limited to artistic expression but covers leadership, problem-solving, innovation and advocacy.
“Creativity is defined as the tendency to generate or recognize ideas, alternatives or possibilities that may be useful in solving problems, communicating with others, and entertaining ourselves and others.” From artists to musicians to writers, sculptors, and designers, creatives are all needed in society or we would not enjoy the pleasures we have now; the clothes we wear, the gadgets we own, the places we visit, the music we enjoy and even the schools we attend. Else, we would live in a sad dystopian society.
