Under GWR Reference Number: 260103153200lmcd, the young Nairobi-based DJ will attempt to shatter the current record of 247 hours, held by Italy’s DJ Fabre Morea.
What is DJ Frxnk’s target
In an interview with NgGossips, Frxnk disclosed that his target is a powerful and symbolic 254 hours, a deliberate nod to Kenya’s international calling code, +254.

In what is expected to be one of the most demanding DJ performances ever attempted on African soil, the rising star is preparing physically and mentally for over ten consecutive days behind the decks.
For Frxnk, this is far more than an endurance challenge as the feat will require not only stamina and discipline, but unwavering focus and passion.
Yet the mission runs deeper than breaking a record as he intends to use the global spotlight to champion Kenyan music at a time when African sound is experiencing an unprecedented global awakening.
The intensity of a 254-hour set mirrors the mental resilience required in everyday life. Beyond music, the DJ hopes to highlight another urgent issue; mental health, now recognised as a growing global concern.
A marathon of music and meaning
By undertaking such an extreme challenge, Frxnk aims to spark conversations around mental wellness, endurance, and the importance of seeking support.

From Afrobeats to Amapiano and Gengetone, African rhythms are reshaping international charts, and Frxnk believes Kenya deserves a louder seat at the table.
“This isn’t just about me,” he expressed. “It’s about Kenya. It’s about African music. It’s about showing the world what we can do.”
The record attempt is scheduled to take place in March 2026 in Nairobi, Kenya, with the official venue set to be announced in the coming weeks. It will carry the theme: “Breaking World Records, One Beat at a Time.”
If successful, the attempt would place Kenya firmly on the global entertainment map, potentially rewriting DJ history while uniting thousands of fans behind one beat-driven mission.
