It was a moment of profound heartbreak for the Nigerian creative industry as popular entertainer DJ Pretty Play announced a major setback in her quest to break the Guinness World Record (GWR) for the longest marathon DJ set. After spinning for a staggering 72 hours non-stop, the disc jockey was forced to reset her clock to zero following a technical rule violation. The ambitious 288-hour attempt, which began three days ago, hit an unexpected hurdle when it was discovered that a song had been repeated within a strict four-hour window. According to GWR guidelines for this category, repeating a track within 240 minutes results in instant disqualification of the time already accumulated. In a raw video message shared with her followers, a visibly exhausted but defiant DJ Pretty Play broke the news, confirming she would not let the 72-hour “painful reset” stop her mission. “It’s rather unfortunate I want to break this news… but as it is, I’ve been disqualified for the first two days and I have to start all over again. Mentally, I think I’m ready… and medically, I am fit. I’m very fit to go on this journey. It’s not easy.” Despite the setback, the DJ has received an outpouring of solidarity from Nigerians who have praised her “never-say-die” attitude. Many took to social media to encourage her, noting that her ability to complete three full days of non-stop mixing already proves her elite endurance. The marathon attempt continues to draw crowds and digital viewers, all rooting for the entertainer as she begins the grueling climb back up to the 288-hour target.
