The hooks survive four continents, and this is the proof of it: twelve tracks, thirty-two minutes, Tyla, Shenseea, Skillibeng, Sarkodie and Yailin La Más Viral spread across them, with ACCRA GIRLS the best thing on the record. MOLIY came up in alté, which is where the interesting Ghanaian-American writing has sat for a decade. The Shake It To The Max remix cleared a billion streams and gamma signed the moment it made. What arrived is a thirty-two-minute project carrying nine guests, which is a compilation more than a catalog. Victony answered the same question by putting SLICK out on his own imprint and filling it himself. Come back when there is a MOLIY album with three features and forty minutes on it.
