Victony taps Don Toliver & Summer Walker for 'SLICK (Remix)'

The night Victony hit the BBC Live Lounge, the air was thick with anticipation. He was there to re‑introduce “SLICK” to a wider audience, and the crowd knew it was about to get a whole new vibe. Three weeks at No. 1 on Nigeria’s Official Top 100 and a top‑two spot on Billboard’s U.S. Afrobeats chart had already cemented the track as a continental phenomenon. Now, with Don Toliver and Summer Walker stepping into the mix, the song is set to cross oceans and genres.

Don Toliver isn’t a stranger to African rhythms. In 2023 he dropped a remix of Rema’s “Soweto,” which climbed to No. 12 on the UK Official Independent Singles Chart and stayed there for 16 weeks. That track proved he could navigate the groove of Afrobeats while keeping his signature melodic elasticity. On “SLICK (Remix)” he brings that same swagger, layering his vocals over the infectious baseline that Victony built. His presence signals a growing trend: American artists are not just listening to Afrobeats; they’re remixing it, adding their own flavor while respecting the original pulse.

Summer Walker is known for her understated R&B delivery, a style that contrasts beautifully with the upbeat energy of “SLICK.” Her voice slides into the track with a smoothness that feels like a breath of fresh air. It’s a reminder that Afrobeats can be a canvas for subtlety as much as it can be a platform for high‑energy anthems. When she joins Victony and Toliver, the song gains a new layer of emotional depth, making it resonate with listeners who crave both rhythm and lyricism.

The remix isn’t just a musical collaboration; it’s a cultural handshake. Victony, a rising star from Accra who is now making waves in London, brings African authenticity. Don Toliver, an American artist with a global fanbase, and Summer Walker, a celebrated R&B singer, bring their own audiences into the conversation. The track’s production by Ozedikus keeps the original’s vibe while adding international polish. The result is a cross‑continental link‑up that expands the song’s reach and invites fans from different backgrounds to share the same beat.

“SLICK” is part of Victony’s sophomore album STARLIFE, released in August 2026. The album already boasts collaborations with BNXN, Blaqbonez, YKB, Babyboy AV, Fola, and Young Jonn. The remix arrives at a busy time for all three artists: Toliver is riding the wave of his album OCTANE, while Victony is solidifying his place on the global stage. The synergy between these projects suggests a strategic push to keep the momentum alive, ensuring that each release feeds into the next.

The “SLICK (Remix)” is more than a remix; it’s a statement. It shows that Nigerian music can seamlessly integrate with American R&B and hip‑hop, creating a sound that feels both familiar and fresh. For fans, it means a track that can play on the radio, stream on playlists, and resonate in clubs across continents. For the artists, it’s a chance to broaden their fanbases and prove that collaboration can transcend borders.

Look, the future of Afrobeats is bright, and this remix is a clear sign that the genre is not just a trendit’s a global movement that keeps evolving.
