Victony doubles down on resilience with the music video for “Stubborn,” his latest single featuring Grammy-nominated artist Asake. This high-energy track follows “Everything,” Victony’s second offering of 2024, and serves as the title track for his upcoming album.
In a statement about the collaboration, Victony emphasised the deeper meaning of the song, “This single is more than just music; it’s an anthem that speaks to resilience and the power of doggedness.

“Stubborn” is produced by Westen Weiss, 1Mind and KTIZO.
