Oratilwe performed his record-breaking hour-long set on 10 June, after Hlongwane managed to sneak the youngster into the Platinum Lounge in Cosmo City, Johannesburg.

It was his third attempt at the title.His first attempt, which he undertook at the age of three, was unsuccessful, as the young boy wasn’t able to concentrate long enough to complete the hour and his second attempt wasn’t recognized by the global world records body, because his set was performed at a stadium and not in a club or a bar. 

 You might be wondering how the world’s youngest club DJ plans on celebrating the feat. Well, with cupcakes, of course!

“I was so excited and so was Oratilwe when I told him. He was very excited, although I don’t think he actually understands how big a deal this is. I asked him what I should get him to celebrate – he said: ‘Cupcakes’,” Hlongwe said.

DJ Arch Jr first exploded on our screens as the 2015 winner of SA’s Got Talent.

In a previous interview with DESTINY, Hlongwane said he discovered his son’s talent when he was just eight months old. He had bought his son an iPad Mini when he was four months old and had downloaded a deejaying app for himself that his son started messing around with.

The question that arises is is it legal to have a child that is so young in a night club, ofcourse he's there as a dj and not as a partying guest drinking alcohol but it might not be legal either way and it is a questionable environment for such a young child to be in. What is his bedtime lol, 5 AM?

Totally with you ,
