The five year-old has broken a Guinness World Record and officially holds the title of the youngest club DJ in the world.


DJ Arch Jr, whose real name is Oratilwe Hlongwane, made headlines before he could talk.


Videos of him spinning on the decks went viral and he quickly became an overnight sensation - loved across South Africa.


Now, he's creeping into the hearts of people across the globe. 


The young DJ sensation was officially inducted into the record books on Wednesday 13 September, after successfully beating Japanese six-year-old Itsuki Morita's record.


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



This was DJ Arch Jr's third attempt. 



In 2015, he was crowned the winner of SA's Got Talent at the age of 3.



He was the youngest ever winner of the talent competition.
