In a series of posts on the X platform, Skales expressed his frustration and disappointment over the relentless trolling, which he claims has taken a toll on his mental health.

Skales accused Wizkid of turning a blind eye to the toxic behaviour of his fans, and even implied that the singer might be financially supporting their actions. He emphasized that he has tried to maintain peace and focus on his career, but his patience has limits.

The singer urged fans to respect boundaries and warned of potential fallout if the trolling continues. Skales' comments come after fellow singer Tiwa Savage previously called out Wizkid's fanbase for their negative online behaviour.

Skales' posts have sparked a heated debate on social media, with many calling for Wizkid to address the issue and condemn the behaviour of his fans.

“And to think that Wizkid sees this and he enjoys it and probably bank rolls this people ... I want peace but war Is an option too”

Speaking on the Shopping The Sneakers podcast, Tiwa Savage lauded Wizkid, Davido, and Burna Boy as prime examples of artists who have effectively forged lasting connections with their audiences.

“It’s not just about the music; it’s your fanbase and your brand,” Savage remarked. “You’ve to think of your fashion. You’ve to be relatable. A lot of times, artists are just putting out music; they are not really connecting with the fans," she said.

According to Savage, establishing real ties with fans goes beyond releasing hit tracks—it encompasses lifestyle, image, and authenticity. She credited Wizkid, Davido, and Burna Boy for mastering this approach, which keeps them consistently relevant, even during musical lulls.

“They love their lifestyles. Whether they are dropping a song or not, they are in the conversation. So it’s really important to build a fanbase. You are only as good as strong as your team,” Savage explained.

Her comments come as Afrobeats continues to expand its global influence, underscoring the need for artists to cultivate strong and loyal followings. Savage’s insight reinforces the idea that in today’s music landscape, success is as much about connection as it is about creativity.
