On his X page, Skales motivated upcoming artists who haven’t achieved success yet to continue striving, since numerous individuals give up right before good fortune arrives.
“Your music has the potential to transport you around the world. It’s crucial to remain persistent until you achieve this vision. Many creators abandon their dreams before they witness success. Stay determined,” the message states.
Skales’ cautionary remarks stem from his present financial prosperity, an unexpected silver lining.
The artist is experiencing their most successful commercial period to date, spanning over a decade throughout their career.
As social media helps propel songs to commercial success and simultaneously revives older tracks, Skale’s emphasis on consistency becomes crucial for up-and-coming artists.
His chart-topping song “Shake Body” is experiencing a commercial revival more than ten years after its initial release.
The track has emerged as one of the most popular trends on TikTok, with users dancing to it following a spark initiated by an 18-year-old sensation from Barcelona.
