    Why I left EME –Skales

    When the news of his exit from his former record label, EME, broke a few weeks ago, it generated mixed reactions from his fans in and outside Nigeria.

    Though the dust raised by his sudden exit from EME is yet to abate, Skales, the act in the centre of the melodrama, has, however, come out to clear the air.

    According to him, “ Both parties agreed to go their separate ways. I decided I wanted to be on my own, do my music and take my own decision. Nothing happened; people are just speculating and spreading rumours. We did not fight. Right now, I am working on my album, rebranding and taking Skales to the next level.”

    When confronted with his decision to team up with Timaya, he was quoted to have said that” Timaya is my buddy; we are always together. He is like my mentor; I take advice from him and I call him my big daddy.

    He is a very close friend of mine. We are always together and people will always speculate that I moved into his house. That is why people came up with the insinuation that I moved into his house. It is just all about music between us. No, I did not move into his house. We are friends and he has a studio in his house. I do a lot of recordings there.”
