Nigerian music sensation Victony has officially announced the release of his highly anticipated new project, an eight-track EP titled 'Very Stubborn'. The artist, born Anthony Ebuka Victor, confirmed the news on Wednesday, November 12, 2025, sending his fans into a frenzy with a characteristically brief and defiant social media post.
The Announcement and Project Details
In his signature cryptic style, the 24-year-old hitmaker declared on his social media platforms: “With love, Very Stubborn (E.P) November 21st.” This new EP is scheduled for release on November 21, 2025, and serves as the powerful follow-up to his critically acclaimed 2024 album, Stubborn.
The project solidifies Victony's position as one of Nigeria's most compelling musical storytellers, building upon the narrative of resilience he established with his previous work.
The Deeper Meaning Behind the 'Stubborn' Persona
The title 'Very Stubborn' is far more than just a catchy phrase; it is a profound reflection of Victony's personal journey. In April 2021, the artist survived a near-fatal car accident that tragically took the life of a close friend.
He endured a four-day coma, spent months in a wheelchair, and underwent multiple complex surgeries. This life-altering period could have ended his career, but Victony's unwavering determination carried him through. His 2024 album Stubborn was born from this struggle, hailed by critics as a powerful narrative of overcoming adversity.
With 'Very Stubborn', Victony signals that the fire of his artistic spirit continues to burn brightly. He is navigating the immense pressures of superstardom while staunchly remaining true to his unique sound, effectively refusing to conform to external expectations.
What to Expect from the 'Very Stubborn' EP
Fans can expect 'Very Stubborn' to be a significant reflection of Victony's artistic evolution. The EP promises an exciting lineup of collaborations, having secured a feature with Afro-fusion star BNXN.
It will also include his 2025 smash hit 'Skido' with legendary rapper Olamide, as well as 'Tanko' featuring iconic street-hop pioneer Terry G.
Early insights suggest that Victony is continuing his exploration of fusing genres like R&B and Pop with the core rhythms of Afrobeats, all while maintaining his authentic sonic identity.
Though the official tracklist has not been personally confirmed by the artist, the project is expected to include tracks such as:
- 'Way Home'
- 'Ordinary Things'
- 'E Go Be'
- 'Gangster Cry'
- 'Amen'
For his dedicated fanbase, this new project pledges to deliver the same emotional honesty and boundary-pushing musical creativity that first earned Victony his stellar reputation in the competitive Nigerian music industry.
