Conflict with Wizkid: Skales Clears Up Rumors
Written by MAX FM on September 6, 2024
Nigerian singer Raoul John Njeng-Njeng, known professionally as Skales, has recently responded to allegations of a conflict with fellow artist Wizkid.
The drama started when Skales promoted his upcoming album, Martina’s Son, on X (formerly Twitter).
In the wake of his promotion, a user named @aurora94212924 accused Skales of betraying Wizkid by befriending his enemies. This accusation quickly spread, leading to heated online discussions.
In his response, Skales took to social media to set the record straight. He clarified that he and Wizkid were never particularly close friends, despite their shared history at Empire Mates Entertainment (EME).
According to Skales, Wizkid simply does not like him, and he has never acted against the Grammy-winning artist.
Skales noted that he only interacted with Wizkid during their time at EME and through professional collaborations. He expressed frustration at others misunderstanding him and highlighted his significant contributions to the industry, despite facing frequent unwarranted criticism. He believes that these unfounded rumours overshadow his public persona and professional achievements.
The online exchange has ignited a broader conversation about the nature of industry relationships and loyalty among artists.
Skales’ comments highlight the complexities of personal and professional connections in the music world. He said that there was no betrayal involved—just a lack of personal closeness with Wizkid.
As the conversation unfolds, fans and industry insiders alike are reflecting on the dynamics of artist relationships and the impact of social media on public perceptions.
Skales’ response not only seeks to address the current controversy but also to shed light on the realities of navigating professional alliances and public scrutiny.
