Watch Video Of 3 years Old World's Youngest DJ From South Africa


Oratilwe Hlongwane, also known as DJ Arch Junior,  is the 3-year-old (YES 3 yrs OLD) from Alexandra in South Africa.  This smart young DJ who first rose to notoriety after his father began posting videos of his virtuoso on YouTube in January 2015.

Touted as the “world’s youngest DJ,” Arch Junior is fast becoming something of a seasoned artist, currently boasting over 49,000 Facebook followers and endorsements from Guess Kids, Beats By Dre, Mini Cooper and Djay Software…wooow, can you beat that, at 3?


Never has victory been handled with such grace as by three-year-old ‘DJ’ Arch Junior, who triumphed at last year’s South Africa’s Got Talent. His blissed-out beats had both the judges and the audience on their feet, gold confetti firing as he was crowned champion - a Kanye-esque look of indifference on his face.

His father, Glenn, who is also a DJ, when ask ‘what is next for the ‘world’s youngest DJ’?, said “We are just going to keep on doing, what we’re doing.“He’s still young and there is still a lot that will happen as he grows and mature. For now, he’s still a kid and he’s just going to continue as he does. He goes to crèche and DJs because he loves it. Tomorrow is another day.”“I don’t think that winning will affect his life in any negative way. He has great parents and we are here to guide him.”

Oratilwe Hlongwane became the youngest person ever to win SA’s Got Talent reality show sixth season, walking away with R500 000. Last year, his audition video which shows him mixing music on a DJ set like a professional went viral, garnering praises from international stars such as Britney Spears, T Pain and Ace Hood.

“This little guy gives me life,” Spears wrote on her Instagram with the video of DJ Arch Junior. Top producer, T Pain took to Facebook to share the video with the caption “Little guy has the gift.”
Hlongwane says he is proud of his son’s achievement, but doesn’t want anything other than seeing his “little superstar” grow up happy, healthy and most importantly, respectful. Since DJ Arch Junior video went viral last year, people have been asking his dad where he is going to perform next, and whether he’s been signed to a record label. But the father responds was that “I don’t have plans for any of that. My child is not a business, he’s only three years old.”





DJ Arch Junior lives with his parents Hlongwane who is a gymnastics teacher and his mother who is a student at Boston Media. They live in Alexander, Johannesburg, where Arch Junior spends most of his time at creche.

The toddler got his love for music from his father who was always mixing music on a DJ app on his Ipad and on his home DJ set. “When I spend time with AJ, he always just wants to do what I’m doing. I started showing him and teaching him how to mix music, and before I knew it, he was doing it on his own and he became better than me,” Hlongwane says with a laugh.
