3 Years after ‘Outlaw,’ Victony unlocks career milestone with ‘Soweto’ Remix on Spotify Streams.

Nigerian music sensation Victony has reached a remarkable new height in his career as the remix of his breakout hit, Soweto, has crossed over 200 million streams on the global music platform Spotify.
The hit remix, which features star acts Rema, Don Toliver, and ace producer Tempoe, marks a major feat not only for Victony but also for the ever-evolving Afrobeats genre.
This achievement represents Victony and Tempoe’s first track to hit the 200 million stream mark on Spotify. It also adds to Rema’s growing list of global hits, becoming his fourth song to reach such a streaming milestone, further cementing his place among the genre’s global elite.

Released as part of Victony’s Outlaw EP, Soweto quickly captured attention with its catchy whistle, mellow bounce, and infectious hook. The remix brought a fresh sound and wider reach, largely thanks to Don Toliver’s seamless contribution and Rema’s unmistakable energy.
Since its debut, the song has evolved from a local favourite into an international banger. It spread like wildfire across TikTok trends and global playlists, propelling Victony from a rising act to a recognised name in global music circles.
“This milestone is not only a career-defining moment for Victony and Tempoe but also a sign of how much African music continues to evolve and break barriers,” a music analyst noted.
As streams continue to rise, the success of Soweto serves as a clear signal that African music, particularly Nigerian Afrobeats, is not just thriving—it’s dominating. For Victony, this is more than just another hit; it’s a confirmation that he has arrived.
