In a video sighted by YEN.com.gh, the award-winning music icons were spotted dancing to Moly's Shake It to the Max at a recent party.

Spotify's UK and Ireland’s senior editor, Joel Borquaye (JoelRyanB), shared the videos on social media.

The two superstars' moments come after Moliy edged Nigeria's Rema to become the third most-streamed African artiste on Spotify.

Moliy's infectious global hit Shake It to the Max was released on February 21, 2025, and quickly gained popularity online.

A TikTok dance challenge helped push the song further into the spotlight. Within a month, the video had over 22 million views on YouTube and topped trending charts in Jamaica.

The song debuted at number three on the Billboard US Afrobeats chart and number one on the World Digital Song Sales chart before climbing to the top this week.

Speaking to YEN.com.gh, entertainment analyst Yaw Boadu-Ayeboafoh weighed in on Cardi B and Lizzo's Shake It to the Max song, saying,

"All these videos are indicators that Shake It to the Max is the biggest Ghanaian song in recent years. It has done amazing numbers in Jamaica and the UK, and now the US is getting served."

Netizens react to Moliy's global hit

YEN.com.gh gathered a few comments from netizens in reaction to Moliy's strides with her song Shake It to the Max.

@WONDERBERKOH said:

"The traveller among them dey vex me the most. He will never support it but every flying music bia he go tap in, yet the number is still the same."

@BrodoSchemes added:

Moliy's monthly Spotify listeners increase

Earlier, YEN.com.gh reported that Moliy had surpassed Amaarae to become the most listened-to Ghanaian artist on Spotify, amassing over 5.6 million monthly listeners as of April 16, 2025. This achievement ends Amaarae's long-standing lead on the platform.

The surge in Moliy's listenership is largely attributed to the success of her viral hit 'Shake It to the Max (FLY)' remix, featuring Jamaican artists Skillibeng and Shenseea, which gained significant traction on TikTok.

The singer is set to break even more records as the song's popularity surges by the day.
