Nigerian Musician Raoul John Njeng
known by his stage name Skales has expressed regret for exchanging words with
his former record label mate Wizkid on social media.
Speaking on Multi TV's 'Let's Talk
Entertainment', Skales said: "That's one of the mistakes I made and I
feel like I'm growing in the eyes of the public so definitely, I know that you
can never benefit from things like that. So I've become a better person now,
I'm more grown now, I've realized that I'm a role model, a lot of people look
up to me and so there's some mistakes I cannot do".
Skales recently accused Wizkid of
allegedly stealing his hit song 'Azonto' and claiming that he wrote the lyrics
of Wizkid's 'Superstar' song.
Wizkid responded in a series of
tweets saying it was just a public stunt by Skales to promote his new song 'Je
Kan Mo'. The controversy raged on for a while between the two.
Regretful Skales who says the issue
has been resolved said, "I'm a human being, I must make mistakes and the
only way is if I correct myself and make myself a better person".
He however warned that he will come
after anyone who steals his song saying, " if you steal my lyrics, I'm
coming for you.
For now nobody has stolen my lyrics
because I only play my music to my team if I want to play to other people to
hear, I can put it on snap chat".
On protecting his songs, Skales
said, "this is your exclusive material and you don't want it to be out yet
so just let it be between your team so you that if it gets out you hold your
team responsible for it but for now, protect it like it's your life".
Skales also debunked speculations by
some entertainment pundits that the Nigerian media do not support works by
Ghanaian musician.
He said, Sarkodie's 'Illuminati',
'Azonto Fiesta' and 'Adonai' with Castro, Joey B's Tonga, D Black's 'Red Card',
including Shatta Wale and Stonebwoy's songs and other Ghanaian songs are very
popular in the Nigeria music circles.
Skales stressed that, " The
Tonga beat is raining in Nigeria, everybody dey do that kind song. They call it
Tonga beat".
The 'Shake Body' singer hopes to
collaborate with Edem, D Black, Sarkodie, Fuse ODG, Stonebwoy and other
musicians.
The musician, who is owner of OHK
record label but not signed onto it says, it is a business move because the
label is not performing well like the one he his signed unto.
"I had to sign to Baseline
Records because I had bigger plans and things I wanted to do but OHK is still
going on, because I own it with a couple of friends of mine so for now, every
one of my project is signed under baseline.
