It is so lovely when we get to celebrate our own as soon as they hit the global stage and DJ Arch Jnr is one such case. The 6-year-old DJ was named the world’s youngest DJ according to Guiness World Records in June 2017. Earlier this week though, he was named as one of the 50 acts who will compete on America’s Got Talent: The Championship.
This means that the young DJ will compete with 49 other acts from 183 countries in the hopes of getting the ultimate title. This new spin-off features the most incredible and memorable acts from previous seasons. And DJ Arch Jnr is one of them. The new season is set to premier on NBC in January 2019.
6 year old Oratilwe AJ Hlongwane popularly known as DJ Arch Jnr won South Africa’s Got Talent in 2015 and became the youngest “Got Talent” winner ever at 3 years old. That is where he first gained prominence and stole a piece of our hearts because we could not get my minds around such a young child DJing.
Since then he has been making us proud and the one highlight was when he beat out Japan’s Itsuki Moria on the Guiness World Record. He is now frequenting overseas destinations and performing in places such as Rome and Italy. He was also recently named the youngest DJ ambassador for software, DJ Pro. This is major!
Congrats to the young king, we wish him all the best!
