Nigerian singer, Raoul John Njeng-Njeng, aka Skales, is enjoying a new fame status as the hit song ‘Shake Body’ is now trending 10 years after its release.
This is following Barcelona’s teenage sensation Lamine Yamal’s viral dance.
He appreciated God for the unexpected favour and urged his colleagues and fans to cooperate with him for greater growth.
On his X handle, he wrote,
“I feel like my life just restarted again.I’m nothing but a learner pls allow me to enjoy this moment without disrespecting anyone that has achieved way more than me. God is the greatest . let’s grow together yall.”
Skales met with Yamal over the weekend after Barcelona’s dramatic 3-2 victory over Real Madrid to claim the Copa del Rey title at the Estadio La Cartuja de Sevilla.
Taking to his Instagram page, Skales shared a video of himself meeting Yamal and Barcelona left-back Alejandro Balde, before performing his single “Shake Body” at the celebration party.
He captioned the video,
“FORÇA BARÇA !!! Felicidades Barcelona!! @lamineyamal @alejandrobalde It was an honour to meet you all and perform at your Celebration party 🎉. Well done, boys.”

He also met the rising star’s mom.
Skales’ 2015 hit, ‘Shake Body,’ gained newfound popularity, following a viral moment where Spanish stars Yamal, Nico Williams, and Samu Omorodion danced to the track.
The youngsters danced to the song while celebrating Spain’s win over the Netherlands in the UEFA Nations League.
Days later, Yamal was seen in another video showing Barcelona legend Gerard Piqué and popular Spanish streamer Ibai Llanos performing the dance moves to the song. Skales has the video pinned on his Instagram page.
From all indications, it appears Yamal is a huge fan of Skale’s Shake Body. It is, however, unclear if he is also a fan of the singer.
It is worth mentioning that the 17-year-old winger who turns 18 in July has the dance moves to go with his love for the song.
