Raoul Njeng-Njeng, the Nigerian singer, who is popularly known as Skales, has shared how a viral moment featuring Barcelona teenage sensation Lamine Yamal had a positive impact on his life and career.
Recall that videos of Yamal dancing to Skales’ song quickly spread across social media, drawing massive engagement from football fans and music lovers alike.
Testifying at Harvesters church service, the ‘Shake Body’ crooner explained that the unexpected viral moment sparked renewed global attention for his music, opening fresh opportunities and conversations around his career.
Skales described the experience as a clear reminder of divine timing, stressing that the help came at a time he was facing public ridicule.
He said, “Earlier this year, I told God he needed to bless me because my career, I was being laughed at. My team and I had a plan, but little did we know God had a bigger plan.
“God raised a kid in Barcelona, Lamine Yamal, and all it took was one simple dance video that went viral, and changed my life.
“I had written down seven prayer points, and all of them happened in one day. It’s so amazing that I found myself editing an adidas advert, a global advert. I want to give glory to God.”
