Imohiosen Patrick aka DJ Neptune has called on African creatives to come together and own their own streaming platforms.
DJ Neptune, one Nigeria’s and Africa’s most celebrated disc jockeys stated this during an interview on Channels Television’s Rubbin Minds on Sunday.
According to him, with Nigeria's population of over 200 million population, such a move will blossom.
He said, “We, as African creatives, need to start thinking towards the direction of owning our own streaming platforms because we have the numbers.
“All DJ Neptune needs to sustain me for the rest of my career is probably just four to five per cent of that population constantly streaming my music, coming to my shows.
“I’m made for life, you know. We need to come together as one.
“But you need to understand that collaboration right now is the new gold. When we go into the room as one voice, it makes the conversation more interesting and more beneficial to the creatives.”
Speaking about his passion for what he does, DJ Neptune said, “I’m still as hungry as when I started on the very first day, you know, and the goal is to be celebrated as a global DJ from Africa, West Africa, Nigeria, to be precise.”
