Her hit single, “Shake It To The Max (Fly) [Remix],” has been nominated in the “Best Afrobeats” category a recognition that cements her rising global influence in the music scene.

The VMAs, scheduled to take place on September 7, 2025, will celebrate the best in music videos and performances from around the world. Moliy’s nomination marks a significant milestone, making her the second Ghanaian artiste in history to be nominated for a VMA.
