Skales, the Nigerian music sensation, recently took a stand against online trolls targeting his fellow artist Burna Boy. In a heartfelt post on social media, Skales emphasized that Burna Boy deserves respect and should not be subjected to any form of disrespect.
“Pls and pls put some respect on burnas name … Burna is not anybody’s mate including me,”
Skales passionately expressed in his post, urging trolls to cease their derogatory behavior towards Burna Boy. The two artists have collaborated on the popular track ‘Temper’ remix, a song that holds significance in their musical journey together.
The controversy arose following Burna Boy’s electrifying performance at the Jazz Fest in New Orleans, where he included their collaborative track in his setlist. Some critics insinuated that Burna Boy’s choice to perform ‘Temper’ remix was influenced by Skales’ recent success with his hit single ‘Shake Body,’ which has resurged in popularity through viral TikTok videos.
However, it is essential to note that Burna Boy has consistently integrated ‘Temper’ remix into his performances over time. This fact underscores the organic connection between the two artists and dismisses any unfounded claims of opportunism or commercial gain.
In the dynamic world of music, both Skales and Burna Boy have been riding high on waves of success in 2025. While Skales celebrates the resurgence of ‘Shake Body’ propelled by TikTok trends, Burna Boy continues to make history with sold-out shows at prestigious venues like England’s largest indoor arena and France’s iconic Stade De France stadium.
The resilience and talent displayed by these artists serve as testaments to their enduring appeal and influence within the global music industry. As they navigate fame and acclaim, support from peers like Skales reinforces camaraderie and mutual admiration among musicians striving for excellence.
