Skales’ Epic Comeback: From EME Days to No.1 in Spain, 10 Years Later!
Remember Skales? Once labelmates with Wizkid under the iconic EME Records, Skales made waves with early hits but struggled to keep the momentum after his record deal expired. Many wrote him off. But as they say, delay is not denial.
Fast forward 10 years after dropping his 2014 hit single “Shake Body”, the unexpected has happened — the track is now trending at No. 1 in Spain!
How? Enter football sensation Lamine Yamal, whose viral challenge using Shake Body took TikTok and social media by storm. What followed was a digital explosion — with over 5,000+ TikTok videos, 40 million Spotify streams, and more than 150 million streams across all digital platforms.
And here’s the sweetest part — Skales owns 100% of his masters. Translation? He could walk away with over $100,000, and keep every single dollar. No label cuts. No middlemen. Just pure reward for a decade-old banger finally getting its flowers.
What a full-circle moment. For many fans and artists alike, this is more than just a viral win. It’s proof that God’s timing is perfect and that true talent never expires.
Skales' story is a powerful reminder: Your season might be delayed, but it’s never denied.
Let the music play — and let the blessings roll in!
