- Skales has revealed that he wrote quite a number of hit songs for his colleague, Wizkid when they were both signed to the same record label.
- The singer shared on the show some songs he wrote for Wizkid when he still used to be signed to Banky W’s record label, EME.
- However, he was quick to note that the relationship was symbiotic and sometimes Wizzy wrote for him as well
Popular singer, Raoul John Njeng-Njeng, better known as Skales, has claimed that he wrote a lot of hit songs for his colleague, Ayodeji Balogun professionally known as Wizkid, during their days at Empire Mates Entertainment, EME record label.
Appearing on ‘Curiosity Made Me Ask’ hosted by content creator, Bae U Barbie, Skales revealed he has co-wrote some of the songs in Wizkid’s debut album, ‘Super Star,’ including the bonus track ‘Wiz Party.’
Skales during the interview however admitted that Wizkid also wrote songs for him, including the hit ‘Mukulu.’ In his words:
“Back in EME, we were a team so we used to write songs for each other. I wrote songs for Wizkid. He also wrote songs for me, too.
“He wrote ‘Mukulu’ for me and I wrote his song ‘Wiz Party.’ As I said, EME was a collective, so we did teamwork.”
Wizkid and Skales were among the first artistes signed to Empire Mates Entertainment, EME, owned by R&B star and music executive, Banky W, in the early 2010s.
The record label brought the singers to the spotlight.
They both later left the record label after a series of disagreements with Banky W.
In an interview with Ebuka Obi-Uchendu a few years ago, Banky W revealed that Wizkid owed EME three albums based on his initial contract with the label.
