I love Burna Boy, but he did not make me – Skales
Singer John Njenga-Njenga, popularly known as Skales, has issued a warning via social media, to all those who accused him of betraying Burna Boy after the singer (Burna Boy) allegedly helped his career skyrocket.
He made a post on X (formerly Twitter) saying that Burna boy didn’t make him and that if anyone should receive accolades that it should be Olamide, Timaya and Banky W. But he made it clear that Burna Boy did not contribute to his success.
A comment insinuated that Burna Boy helped Skales career secure a boost, to which he responded:
“Listen I will defend myself always … I love Burna but don’t you ever say he helped me … no one helped me! Only my fans and God’s grace .. we do collabo wey all of us benefit from .. if the thing no benefit us we no go Dey perform for our different sets” He wrote on X
In another post he added
“Put some respect on my name… I don tell una the only person sef wey help me na olamide and Timaya and Banky W… much respect to Burna … you guys always love to see artiste go against each other but ama set the record straight … so love your fav and stop cooking up bullshit stories…”
When another X user came out to say that it was the singer Wizkid who “made” Skales, the singer (Skales) responded: “Ask am make him tell una how… got respect for him but he dint help me… if anything Banky deserves the praise and respect for believing in teenagers.”
Skales emphasised his desire to focus on making music and avoiding negative energy, stating, “I’m a don with this music and all I wanna do is make Music and stay away from all that negative toxic bullshit.”
Skales and Wizkid were signed to Banky W’s Empire Mates Entertainment (EME) in the 2010s, but have since moved on to pursue successful solo careers.
