Kabuubi Akram aka Zed Monk started this streak on 3 May (by press time he had achieved 24 hours). He aims at surpassing the 48 hours record by at least achieving 55 hours or at most 80 hours.

The budding rapper is not new to freestyle rapping. He made his debut on the weekly Street Credit show hosted by Breezy Beats.

This move has garnered attention for him from media houses , public figures, Uganda Musicians’ association and even new fans.

Zed is the first Ugandan rapper to challenge the record or attempt to rap individually for over 10 hours.
