Nigerian singer Skales is making headlines after previewing a new track dedicated to Lamine Yamal, Barcelona’s teenage football sensation. However, the move has sparked mixed reactions online, with some critics accusing the artist of mishandling a potential career revival.
The inspiration behind the tribute stems from a recent viral moment where Lamine Yamal featured Skales’ hit song “Shake Body” in a TikTok video. The clip, which showed the 17-year-old star dancing alongside his teammates, quickly garnered massive attention, propelling Skales back into global visibility and driving a surge in streaming numbers for the long-time artist.
The renewed spotlight even led to Skales being invited to celebrate with FC Barcelona during their Copa del Rey triumph over Real Madrid, where he performed in the company of the team’s players.
Riding on this unexpected resurgence, Skales has now previewed a song titled after Lamine Yamal himself. While the move was likely meant as a tribute, many Nigerians took to social media to criticize the execution, suggesting that the track missed the mark and calling it a wasted opportunity to solidify his comeback.
Whether the full release changes public opinion remains to be seen, but one thing is clear: Skales has reentered the conversation, and all eyes are on his next move.
