Skales, a name that resonates through the world of music, is a testament to unwavering determination and a passionate pursuit of his dreams. From his early days, where he boldly declared he was “Heading for a Grammy,” to navigating the complexities of fame, Skales has remained a resilient figure in the industry. With his latest EP, Proof of Life, he reaffirms his presence in music, calling to mind the profound connection between personal happiness and the pursuit of one’s passions.
On “Heading for a Grammy” he rapped with so much positivity and self-belief, assuring anyone who was still supporting his intentions to become the greatest.
Achieving fame came with its fair share of difficulties and setbacks for him. Nevertheless, throughout his professional journey, he has consistently displayed an unwavering commitment to forge ahead, regarding happiness as an ongoing pursuit rather than a mere destination. He once shared his mantra with a media publication, “Happiness is peace of mind to me, doing what you love and being profitable from it,” reflects a deep-rooted understanding of the connection between personal contentment and pursuing one’s passions.
The Proof of Life EP debuts roughly 20 months after the release of his Sweet Distractions album. This is a celebration of the therapeutic impact of positivity, happiness, and the profound nature of social bonds.
When asked about the album’s title, Skales responded, “There’s a misconception that I’ve disappeared, and some of my fans stopped listening to my music a while ago, assuming I’ve stopped making it. ‘Proof of Life’ is essentially my way of affirming that I’m still active in the music scene. It’s also a celebration of my long-standing tenure in the industry, despite the limitations I’ve had to overcome.”
