– in 195 Women’s Music Collaboration
A Liberian Multimedia Journalist and Fact-Checker, Laymah Kollie has become one of the bona fide recipients of the prestigious Guinness World Records 2025. The Record comes following her collaboration on a song produced by the Frequency School featuring 195 Women from 195 countries across the Globe.
The song broke the Guinness World Records™️ title for: “Most nationalities to contribute vocals to a musical recording (single song).” The record-breaking “195” is the first song in history to feature women from all 195 countries and use the 528 Hz ‘Love’ sound healing frequency.
The historic song was released on January 20, 2025, at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. Using the 528 Hz ‘Love’ sound healing frequency, “195” unites women worldwide through music to ignite a global movement for gender equality.
Using the sounds of birds and the heartbeat as instrumental elements, the “195” raises awareness about gender equality and promotes women’s empowerment and female leadership.
Each woman in every one of the world’s 195 countries recognized by the United Nations said one word: “EQUALITY” in her national language or native tongue and submitted her voice and video recording.
A Guinness World Records adjudicator officially verified the number of women and nationalities participating in the song.
’195’ is a global anthem produced by the U.S. Grammy-nominated and multi-platinum producer Maejor, journalist Martina Fuchs, Kingsley Maduka, and Brandon Lee, under the creative direction of Aaron Dawson. It highlights the shared strength, resilience, and beauty of women everywhere.
Expressing her excitement about the achievement, Laymah said the Record means a lot to her. For the young Journalist, it is not just about the accolade, but the connection she has built with other vibrant women from across the globe.
“This is not just a win but a moment to cherish. This song has brought me into the company of great women from all walks of life. The connection we share and the support we offer are opportunities I hold dearly to my heart,” Laymah said.
She views her collaboration on the song as a platform for advocating for gender equality in national leadership and across all sectors of government.
“It is a symbol of advocacy. Having women from across the globe join their voices to call for gender equality shows unity and support for not just the Sustainable Development Goals, but also how women can achieve big goals when they agree to work together.”
She applauded the Founder of ‘The Frequency School’, Martina Fuchs, for recruiting her for the project. “I’m grateful to Martina for trusting me to form part of such a big community. Her ability to gather 195 women and create something great out of them illustrates her strength to navigate through water for applicable solutions.” Laymah added.
