Hot SourceGhanaian-American viral sensation MOLIY has made a powerful return with her brand-new single ‘Body Go’ featuring Grammy Award-winning South African superstar TYLA.
The electrifying collaboration is now available on all streaming platforms.
Blending R&B, Pop, Amapiano and Afrobeats, ‘Body Go’ delivers a magnetic global dance anthem built for movement, confidence and joy.
The release follows the historic success of MOLIY’s global hit ‘Shake It to the Max (FLY) [Remix]’, which crossed 1 billion streams and was named among Spotify and TikTok’s Songs of the Summer 2025.
Fans of each other’s work, MOLIY and TYLA came together with a shared mission — to celebrate feminine power, unity and pure energy.
After recording the track, MOLIY felt it needed what she calls “another baddie” and sent it straight to TYLA. Without hesitation, TYLA laid her verse before the two even met in person. Their first meeting in New York sealed the chemistry behind the record.
MOLIY shares, “When I was done recording the song, I just knew it needed another baddie, so I sent Tyla the record hoping she’d feel it. When she sent back her verse, it was perfect. The first time we met, it didn’t even feel like the first time.
“We laughed the whole time, and she even surprised me with flowers for my birthday. She’s such a girl’s girl! That’s when I knew this song captured the right energy needed for a girls’ night out, and I’m so excited to release it.”
TYLA adds, “I remember hearing ‘Body Go’ for the first time and thinking, ‘Yeah, I need to be on this.’ Meeting MOLIY in New York felt like meeting an old friend.
“This one is special because it’s so playful and light. It feels like you’re outside with your girls, not thinking too hard, just living, just moving. MOLIY and I clicked right away on this track.”
Produced by French producer FRNCH and Grammy-winning producer DEE/MA, the track pulses with amapiano basslines and smooth Afrobeats melodies, capturing the feeling of a carefree night across cities like Accra, Johannesburg, Lagos and Nairobi.
