Victor AD Teams Up With Timaya on New Inspirational Anthem “Only God”
Nigerian singer-songwriter Victor AD has released a new single titled “Only God”, featuring veteran hitmaker Timaya. The official video is now out, adding fresh visuals to a track that blends street-inspired storytelling, spiritual reflection, and nostalgic Galala-influenced rhythm.
The song centers on themes of gratitude, survival, and divine grace—messages both artists are well known for expressing in different ways. Victor AD, who rose to prominence with emotionally driven hits like “Wetin We Gain”, continues in his lane of motivational music that speaks directly to everyday struggles and triumphs. Timaya complements the record with his signature confident delivery and seasoned presence, giving the track a balanced mix of youthful urgency and veteran calm.
“Only God” carries a strong Afro-fusion sound layered with Afrobeat, dancehall, and noticeable Galala-inspired street vibes. From the bouncing percussion to the groovy rhythmic pattern and laid-back delivery, the track echoes the classic Nigerian street sound that dominated the late 1990s and early 2000s while still sounding modern and refreshing. The production is built around steady drums, melodic chords, and a relaxed groove that allows both artists’ vocals and message to stand out naturally.
