The channel focused on current music, as well as music from the 2000s and the 2010s. In the 2000s, the channel used to focus on then current music – with a heavier focus on so-called adult contemporary pop and pop rock than today, – as well as music from the 1980s and the 1990s. From 2020 until the closure, the channel also played some Hip Hop hits, from artists like Roddy Ricch and DaBaby.
On 2 August 2021, the channel was replaced by MTV 00s.[1] On 1 August - the 40th anniversary of MTV - the channel's programming was adapted to MTV 00s, where as the next day the logo and graphics were updated to MTV 00s. On the former programming, the last song broadcast on VH1 Shuffle was the 2014 single "Are You with Me" by the Belgian DJ Lost Frequencies.[2] The last music video shown on VH1 before being replaced by MTV 00s on 2 August 2021 at 05:00 CET, was "Dani California" by Red Hot Chili Peppers.[3]
