Afrobeats singer Raoul Njeng-Njeng, popularly known as Skales, has revealed that his breakthrough in the music industry was sparked by a prayer he made during the 2013 Shiloh programme of Living Faith Church, also known as Winners’ Chapel.
At the time, Skales was navigating a challenging phase in his career following the end of his contract with Banky W’s Empire Mates Entertainment (EME). He recalled that things began to change after fellow musician Timaya invited him to attend Shiloh.

During the programme, attendees were asked to write down seven things they were praying for. For Skales, his focus was clear: a song that would achieve global recognition.
Reflecting on the experience, Skales shared on X on Thursday: “In 2013 @timayatimaya took me to Shiloh and we were told to write down 7 things we are praying for and I wrote a song that will take me to the ends of the world 7 times … fast forward till today he gave me a divine unending song … when they think it’s over another thing pops up about this damn song… Lord Jesus thank you.”
His prayer was answered with the 2015 hit single Shake Body, which has recently regained international attention after Barcelona youngster Lamine Yamal and some teammates were seen dancing to it.
