Skales recalls how Olamide changed his life.
Nigerian rapper cum singer, Skales recalls how music colleague, Olamide assisted him during his financial crisis and changed his life.
In a recent interview with media personality Chude Jideonwo, Skales said that EME didn’t renew his contract because the label couldn’t generate money off of him, which led to him ending up homeless and broke.
He said Olamide called him and asked if he wasn’t going to shoot a video for his song ‘Shake Body.’
Skales however, replied that he was broke and homeless. Olamide sent him money for the video shoot, after which the song became a success.
He said: “My deal with them was done and they refused to continue because I wasn’t doing well at that time.
“Olamide contacted me and said he loved one of my songs, Shake Body, and asked if I wasn’t going to shoot the video. I told him I was homeless and couldn’t possibly shoot a video and he sent me money. My God turned my life around after that video shoot”
