Nigerian Disc Jockey and music producer, Florence Ifeoluwa Otedola aka DJ Cuppy has rubbished American rapper, Kanye West’s claim that he is the richest black man.
Kanye revealed that he made the statement when he was stopped from entering his estranged wife, Kim Kardashian’s house to spend time with his children.
While speaking on Hollywood Unlocked hosted by Jason Lee, the ‘Heartless” crooner narrated how he was forced to announce himself as the richest black man when the Kim Kardashian’s security told him he couldn’t go inside.
He said; “Earlier this week, Monday, when I went to go pick my kids up from school, the security stopped me at the gate.
“So at that point, security was in between me and my children and that’s what was not going to happen.
“But I didn’t want to argue about it. So I just chilled, took my kids to school, and then took my kids back.
I am driving. I bring them back and North was like, ‘I want you to come upstairs and see something.’
“And it’s like, ‘Oh, Daddy can’t come see something. Daddy can’t come inside.’ But that hadn’t been defined.”
Reacting via Twitter, Cuppy said that he isn’t the richest black man. The entertainer stated that her godfather, Aliko Dangote is the only person officially recognised as the richest black man.
She tweeted; ”Random, I know… I am a HUGE @Kanye West fan However with ALL due respect, I feel the need to remind him that he is not the “richest black man” -it is in fact my Godfather @Aliko Dangote. Just clearing the air with #Facts”
