Author: Emmanuel Owoniyi August 25, 2026 Duration: 2:20:28

In this episode of #ATTWSpace, we dive deep into Victony’s STARLIFE album, breaking down the standout tracks, production, songwriting, and whether the project lives up to expectations from one of Afrobeats’ most exciting young stars.

We also discuss the VMAs removing the Best Afrobeats category, what that decision could mean for Afrobeats’ growing global recognition, and are joined by surprise guest Ycee to get his perspective on the conversation.

Then, we hear firsthand from fans who attended Asake’s IGWT Tour stops in Toronto and Chicago. They join the conversation to review and critique the live experience, from Asake’s performance and stage presence to the production, energy, crowd, and overall concert experience.

Finally, we recap All Points East, discussing performances from Tems and Ayra Starr, the atmosphere, standout moments, and the continued impact of African artists on major international festival stages.

It’s a packed conversation covering Afrobeats, album reviews, live shows, African music, and the biggest conversations happening across the culture right now.
