While acknowledging that Moliy boasts one of the biggest songs to emerge from Ghana on a global scale, he expressed disappointment, stating that her performance lacked the enduring impact one would expect from such an acclaimed artist.
“Moliy needs to incorporate certain elements into her performances that can leave a lasting impression."
"I can hardly recall her presence despite her having the most significant song internationally from our country. "
"She should consider adding distinctive features to her act to ensure she stands out when the dust settles.”

She emphasised the importance of time and experience in the journey of personal and professional growth, highlighting her substantial progress over the past year.
“Technically, that’s what experience is meant to do: enhance your skills, much like in any facet of life. But go off. I've evolved from having zero bookings last year to becoming the most in-demand Ghanaian artist this summer, performing at shows around the globe. They play!” she posted confidently.
