Victony’s “Very Stubborn” vs “Stubborn”: The EP That Outshines the Album

Victony has never hidden the scars that shaped him. His rise has framed his music with a clarity few young Afropop artists possess. Victony has always carried himself like someone racing against time. Every release feels urgent, as if he’s trying to outrun the memory of what almost ended him: the accident, the surgeries, the difficult climb back into the spotlight.

When he released Stubborn in 2024, the album was praised for its ambition and emotional range. It positioned him as a songwriter with depth, not just another hit-maker.

But with Very Stubborn, an eight-track EP running just 24 minutes, Victony shows he now understands the value of precision. The project is lean, concentrated, and strikingly intentional. It does not attempt to impress with scope. It simply hits and scores. 

Stubborn, my debut album, is out now.
