Victony’s “SLICK” Rockets to No. 1 on the Nigeria Top 100 in Its First Full Week, It is Victony’s First Official No. 1 Single in History

Chart rankings on the Official Nigeria Top 100 are based on a weighted formula incorporating audio and video streams within Nigeria, as well as airplay on radio in the country. It is the first and only standard music chart in Nigeria, providing comprehensive music activity including the official No. 1 song in Nigeria

Victony’s “SLICK” tallied 2.63 million on-demand streams (No. 2 on streaming) and 60.0002 million in radio reach (No. 5 on radio), jumping from its debut of No. 73 last week (partial week of tracking) to No. 1 in its first full week. 

“SLICK” earns Victony his first No. 1 entry on the official singles chart in Nigeria and his 13th top ten entry on the chart. Victony was one of the few artistes with at least 10 top ten entries in Nigeria without a number-one single; together with Bella Shmurda (17), Tiwa Savage (12), and Zlatan (11).
