The beautiful and humbly story of Ayodeji Balogun “Wizkid” selling out the Madison Square Garden in New York City in 2022 started from the humble beginning of being a studio boy in Ojuelegba Lagos.
The African Giant “Burna Boy” breakout single “Like to Party” was in 2012, it was not until 2018 that the self acclaimed Odogwu got his global rave “Ye” . With Davido performance at the closing ceremony of Qatar 2022 World Cup, we cannot but predict the next global take over of Afrobeat genre and all its sub-cultures.

Gone are the days where people talked about a Music Industry with no structure. With Digital Music Streaming and Digital Promotional platforms like short video app “Tik Tok” and Photo app like Instagram, Nigerian artists are now digging out liquid gold from their home studios to sell to the World.

Who are these rising Afrobeat stars that will join the league of global superstars? Let’s dig them up in this master piece.
Victony
The Nigerian fast rising music star got the fans all over Nigeria and Africa hooked with singles like Holy Father, Kolomental, Apollo and Soweto. The Afropop artist who started as a rapper from his teen age in school started delving into R&B and had to settled with Afropop sub culture in the year 2022.
As a wise man said ” There is no star without a scar and the scar of every star is their sacrifice” Victony survived a ghastly auto accident in 2020 which claimed the life of one of his friend and had him confined to a wheel chair for more than 7 months. Despite his ordeal, the singer do not loss the courage to pick up his career again in 2021 and later gave us the melodious hit “Holy Father” Feat Mayorkun.
With matured lyrics and sounds that is both sounding spiritual and elite, you can not but give it to Victony to be part of the Afropop sensations to take global dominance in 2023.
Victony is managed by Mainland BlockParty under the management of of some of the best industry veterans.
Oxlade
Oxlade always connect to his audience in an energy and extra-ordinary way. The Away crooner is the only Nigerian Music Artist named in the VEVO DSCVR Artist to watch in 2023 Program. With addictive sound and smooth voice, you can recognize a hitmaker with super love for what he is doing. The artist came with Ku Lo Sa ( A Colour Show) in 2022 and has been riding on the global waves of the Afrobeat Genre. The Hit song which began from a German staged show “Colors” is receiving great acceptance on the global stage and we cannot do but to hope that the wave continue in the year 2023.
Oxlade is an artist that has showcased himself what it is like, to being an entrepreneur. The Afrobeat singer used Instagram Promotion as his lead strategy for his breakout single “Away” in 2020. To be a global contender, you must be a global thinker, and Oxlade is not just using the digital platforms to sing but to make his voice heard on social-economic issues.
