Nigerian singer Skales has responded to accusations of betraying his colleague, Wizkid, in a recent online exchange.
The controversy began when Skales promoted his upcoming album, Martina’s Son, on X, formerly Twitter.
A user, @aurora94212924, claimed that Skales had turned against Wizkid, befriending his enemies to spite him. However, Skales clarified that he and Wizkid were never close friends, despite their time together at Empire Mates Entertainment (EME). Also, he stated that Wizkid simply doesn’t like him, and he never switched on the Grammy winner.
Meanwhile, Skales emphasized that their connection was limited to their time at EME and collaborative work, but not a close friendship. Additionally, he expressed his frustration with being misunderstood, stating that he has been a blessing to many in the industry, yet faces criticism.
The online exchange has sparked a wider conversation about industry relationships and loyalty. Skales’ response aims to set the record straight on his relationship with Wizkid. It emphasizes that there was no betrayal, just a lack of close friendship.
I never ever switched on him … he doesn’t like me … we were never close friends either but eme members … so rest https://t.co/eddqkX1fXi
