Nigerian singer, Skales, has detailed how his colleague, Naira Marley, requested that his verse be removed from a song by Tanzanian artist, Harmonize, which featured both of them.
The singer revealed this while participating in the most recent audiovisual podcast edition of Doyin`s Corner.
Skales stated that he was surprised when Harmonize contacted to notify him of Naira Marley`s position because they had no animosity between them.
He claimed he was the one who drove the Tanzanian singer to Naira Marley`s house to record the song.
In his words:
“I want to share a story that I still find crazy, you know. I have never said this before, but this is going to be my first time. So I have this brother from Tanzania, he is one of the biggest artists from East Africa, as a matter of fact, Africa. His name is Harmonize.
“So he was working on his album, he came to Nigeria. I remember I took him to Naira Marley`s house. It was all good vibes and everything. The song he did with Naira Marley, he hit me up and said I want you to give me a verse on this song. And I did it. I sent it to him. It was dope. He was like, I like it blablabla. Then weeks later, he called me and said, ”˜Do you have a beef with Naira Marley?` And I was like, ”˜Beef? We were all chilling. What is going on?”
