MOLIY is heading into summer with serious momentum. The Ghanaian-American Afropop star has officially announced her mixtape, ‘Baddies Love Moliy’, arriving this summer via Gamma, and the featured artist list alone signals exactly how far her reach has grown.
The teaser video, out now, sets the tone immediately. Shot inside a grungy warehouse transformed into a makeshift tattoo parlor, the clip finds MOLIY in her signature bright blue Y2K aesthetic, moving through a space filled with baddies while a tattoo artist reveals the mixtape title across a client’s lower back. An evidence board teases track names, features, and upcoming tour dates. It’s a full world-building moment.
The featured roster spans continents and genres. South African popstar Tyla, Dancehall titan Skillibeng, Jamaican star Shenseea, Dominican musician Yailin la Más Viral, Ghanaian rapper Sarkodie, UK rapper Br3nya, emerging Nigerian Afrobeats artist Mavo, producer-DJ Silent Addy, Berlin/London producer collective Bees & Honey, and MOLIY’s own sister Mellissa all appear on the project. Cross-cultural doesn’t begin to cover it.
MOLIY describes the mixtape as intentionally genre-fluid. “I didn’t want to stay in one lane with this mixtape,” she says. “Every song pulls from a different energy, sound, and part of my personality, but it all connects through confidence, freedom, and movement. It’s like a party with no rules, just in time for a baddie summer.”
The mixtape arrives on the back of a genuinely historic run. “Shake It To The Max (FLY) (Remix)” surpassed one billion streams, spent 22 consecutive weeks at number 1 on the Billboard U.S. Afrobeats Songs Chart, and earned Songs of the Summer recognition from both Spotify and TikTok in 2025. MOLIY also became the first Ghanaian artist nominated at the American Music Awards, earned 2 MTV VMA nominations, took home World Artist of the Year at the iHeartRadio Music Awards, and became Spotify’s most-streamed Ghanaian artist of 2025.
Two tracks already confirmed for the mixtape are “Body Go” with Tyla, a groove-driven dance anthem from 2025, and “Partygyal” with Bees & Honey. Both tracks point toward what the full project delivers: bounce-heavy rhythms, feathery vocals, and production built for the dance floor.
Before the mixtape drops, MOLIY and Skillibeng launch a 20-city North American tour this Sunday, May 24, kicking off in New York City.
