Victony Makes Billboard History with 10 Afrobeats Hits

Victony, a Nigerian singer, made history by having 10 songs simultaneously on the U.S. Afrobeats Songs chart for the week ending September 5, 2026.

This achievement follows the release of his sophomore album, "STARLIFE," on August 21, 2026. The album consists of 15 tracks and includes collaborations with artists such as BNXN, Blaqbonez, YKB, Babyboy AV, Young Jonn, and FOLA.

Notably, the song "SLICK" leads Victony's entries at No. 2 on the chart, having previously peaked at No. 3. Other entries include "FRE$H" at No. 21, "2FRESH" at No. 26, and "WHO THIS," featuring BNXN, at No. 29.

The title track "STARLIFE," featuring Blaqbonez and YKB, debuted at No. 34. The album also debuted at No. 20 on the Billboard World Albums chart, marking Victony's first appearance on that chart.

The project has garnered attention for its blend of Afrobeats and R&B, with The FADER describing it as a smoother and more freeing project.
