Raggamuffin legend Daddy Freddy breaks his own record for rapping the most syllables in one minute on BBC TV’s Record Breakers in 1989.
Eventually Freddy broke the record four times taking it from 346 to 598 syllables a minute. First and second time in UK (in Covent Garden and at BBCs Record Breakers on BBC Record Breakers show where he appeared with the great Roy Castle) and two times in America (New York Empire State Building and in Washington).”
Freddy’s record has been broken over the years, most recently by Spanish rapper El Chojin, but Daddy still ranks number one in the world of raggamuffin.
