In a recent interview, Nigerian singer Raoul John Njeng-Njeng, widely known as Skales, made a bold assertion regarding his impact on the career of his fellow artist, Burna Boy. He reminisced about the early stages of Burna Boy’s journey, suggesting that the collaboration on the ‘Temper Remix’ in 2017 played a pivotal role in setting the latter on the path to success.

Skales noted that before this collaboration, Burna Boy had not yet achieved a significant hit song. His remarks not only highlight the importance of mutual encouragement within the music industry but also underscore the shared influence that artists can have on one another’s careers. “I inspired Burna Boy. He will agree with me,” Skales stated, emphasizing the essence of admiration and collaboration in fostering talent.

In an intriguing juxtaposition, Burna Boy subsequently shared his own reflections on success, revealing that he is now wealthier than many politicians and business magnates he once looked up to. Through social media, he encouraged his followers not to underestimate the potential of younger individuals, reflecting on how the music industry has emerged as a lucrative path where previous norms have shifted.

This dialogue between the two artists illustrates a dynamic and evolving music scene in Nigeria. As they acknowledge each other’s contributions, they also serve as reminders of the communal spirit embedded in the creative industries.
