Vector Did Not Break The Record Of The Longest Freestyle By An African Artist

Music lovers were over the week treated to a stunning performance by the King Kong himself on Rhythm FM Freestyle Fury where he free styled for two hours thirty minutes non stop on random captions thrown at him.

It was an amazing show from the Viper, and the Internet-osphere is buzzing of accolades for the King Kong which were rightly due.

However, unlike how it has been postulated in some quarters….

… VECTOR DID NOT BREAK ANY RECORD AND DIDN’T CREATE ANY…

Yes, you read that well… Vector does not currently hold the record for the longest freestyle in Africa even with that performance.

The award for the longest freestyle by an African artist belongs to Chiddy of the American group ChiddyBang.
Real name, Chidera Anamege is a Nigerian American rapper who also held the Guinness World Record for the longest Rap Freestyle after free styling for over Nine hours.

And yes he is a Nigerian, he was signed as an artist in Eldee’s Trybe Records under another stage name “Proto” releasing songs like “My Guys Dem”, “Shayo De Go”, even featuring on Eldee’s “One in a Million”.

Read the statement issued by Eldee when he signed him…
“I have just recently signed a new artist to the Trybe Records camp and we are really excited about this new phenomenon by the name of “Proto”. He’s a 17 year old Nigerian MC from North New Jersey and has been on the grind for quite a while talking to a bunch of major labels out here in the states. He currently owns a production outfit by the name “Chidi Bang Entertainment” and has over 100 songs recorded”

and then he goes ahead and throws out a warning,

“We’re also about to hit up Nigeria and the rest of Africa with that next level music, like we always do. We hereby challenge any artists out there that imagine they can compete with “Proto” to step up and get eaten!
