‘I’ve dated 100 ladies’ — Skales likens self to King Solomon

Skales, the Nigerian singer, has compared himself to King Solomon in the Bible while revealing he has dated “about 100 women”.

King Solomon was a monarch of ancient Israel who married 700 wives of royal birth and had 300 concubines.

Skales spoke about his intimate relationships with women when he featured on Drip Check At The Nike Store show hosted by Sheye Banks.

The 33-year-old singer said he had access to women and “could not get enough” during his teenage years.

He added that he would have been on the same path as King Solomon if it were not for his status as a married man.

“I have dated about 100 women or so. If I was not married I would probably be on the King Solomon path,” he said.

“Let me explain. I am in a different situation right now but back then I just could not get enough of women.

“Women are endless, you know? You keep going to the streets and you see women everywhere. As at then, I would have been like King Solomon.

“You know he had like so many wives and many concubines. This guy used to travel and take ships to meet these women.

“I did a lot of childish things back then. What do you expect from a teenager that had a lot of fame and lots of access to women?

“There were a lot of good women that I lost because of my childish mentality or behaviour and stuff like that. I am becoming a better man now.”

Born Raoul John Njeng-Njeng, Skales started writing rap songs in 2000.

Skales and Precious got married in May 2021. The couple have a child together.

In November 2022, the singer sparked a breakup rumour after he shared a diss track for his wife who he described as the “devil”.

Skales would later apologise to his wife for bringing their private life to the public eye.

Last year, he detailed his struggles after leaving Empire Mates Entertainment (EME), a label owned by Banky W.
