Afrobeats singer Anthony Victor, popularly known as Victony, has stated that he is not in a hurry to reach the same level of stardom as his colleagues Rema and Asake.

This comment came in response to claims by some social media users that his debut album 'Stubborn' wasn’t "commercially successful" because he didn’t have "haters" posting negative comments to make it trend on social media.

Victony dismissed the assumption as "dumb," emphasizing that those pushing this narrative have unrealistic expectations for his album, given his current status in the music industry.

On his X handle, Victony wrote, “Lmao, ‘Victony needs more haters’ gotta be the dumbest shit I’ve seen cos what’s the rush? Everyone wanna be Rema and Asake in 2 hours?”
