Nigerian singer Seyi Vibez is making waves yet again, as his latest single, “Pressure,“ has surpassed 1 million streams on Spotify in less than 24 hours after release — a clear testament to his rising global impact and loyal fanbase.
Known for his distinctive fusion of Afrobeats, hip hop, and indigenous Apala music, Seyi Vibez takes a bold creative detour on “Pressure.”
This time, he sets aside his signature Amapiano-infused, slang-heavy street anthems for a more mid-tempo, R&B-flavored pop sound that showcases a softer, more melodic side of his artistry.
One of the most striking elements of “Pressure” is that it’s sung entirely in English, a first for the artist who typically leans into Yoruba and Pidgin-inflected delivery.
The result is a smooth, introspective offering where he promises a love that’s refined through effort — “putting in the pressure” to make a diamond out of a relationship.

The track’s explosive debut on Spotify is not just a commercial win but also a critical moment of evolution for the singer. It demonstrates his ability to experiment without losing his core audience — a rare feat in today’s music landscape.
“Pressure” follows his recent 4-track surprise EP Children of Africa and marks his second release since parting ways with Dapper Music in 2024. With six solo projects in just three years, Seyi Vibez continues to prove he’s not just a hitmaker — he’s an artist in constant motion.
