Hours ago, news broke that Skales is currently in talks with Pop singer Timaya for a record label deal with his Dem Mama Records.
.
The rapper says the news is totally false.
.
This comes after we exclusively reported that the rapper has ended his three-year recording contract with Empire Mates Entertainment (EME).
.
Sources said that the label decided not to extend the contract with the rapper as they see it as non-profitable.
.
Urban culture blog PopOffCentralreported the rumours of a deal between between Skales and Dem Mama Records yesterday.
.
Sources close to Skales also said that although the rapper is in talks with Timaya, he has another record label offer and is currently weighing his options.
.
‘He has two deals on the table as we speak, he’s weighing both deals to see which pays him‘, a source said.
.
Skales however says the news is completely false, explaining that the media has taken his friendship with Timaya out of context.
.
‘It’s not true. I’m not signed with Timaya or Dem Mama Records. I’m just doing my thing. Timaya is my friend and that’s what it is’, Skales told NET over the telephone.
.
Meanwhile, there have been other reports that Skales currently resides in Timaya’s home in Lekki Phase 1, Lagos. Skales has also denied the report.
.
‘I go to Timaya’s crib because he’s got a studio and we just vibe. I’ve got a studio too and he comes over. It’s all love around here’, Skales explained.
.
Skales is currently working on his solo debut album ‘All the Above’.
