Skales, who was once signed to the same record label as Wizkid, experienced a life-changing moment when a 17-year-old Barcelona player named Lamine Yamal unexpectedly impacted his career.
Yamal posted a TikTok video of himself dancing to Skales’ hit song “Shake Body,” which was released 12 years ago. The video quickly went viral, garnering an impressive 96 million views in just 48 hours.
The popularity of the TikTok video led Spanish social media influencers with millions of followers to create a dance challenge based on the song, further boosting its exposure.
Additionally, the song saw a surge in views on YouTube, resulting in a significant increase in revenue for Skales. As a result of this newfound fame, Skales is now preparing for a tour in Spain.
All of these remarkable achievements were made possible thanks to the unexpected support of Lamine Yamal.
