Victor AD joins forces with Nigerian singer-songwriter Wizard Chan on War, a collaboration that uses the language of conflict to explore the struggles, pressure, and battles people face in everyday life.
War does not have to mean physical fighting. In ordinary life, people can be at war with disappointment, poverty, heartbreak, self-doubt, or circumstances that refuse to change. That makes the title broad enough to speak to anyone who has had to keep fighting for a better position in life. Victor AD brings his Afrobeats background to the record, while Wizard Chan is known for music shaped by themes of pain, darkness, struggle, and staying true to oneself.
The collaboration is an interesting meeting of two Nigerian artists whose writing often gives attention to difficult sides of life. Wizard Chan’s catalogue includes records such as “Earth Song,” “Loner,” and “Legacy”, with his music frequently touching on personal struggle and identity.
The strongest part of the title is that it leaves the listener to decide what the battle means personally. One person may hear it as a fight for survival, another may connect it to protecting their peace, while someone else may simply be trying to overcome a difficult chapter. That flexibility gives the record a message that can travel beyond the artists’ own experiences.
