Skales Set to Drop New Hit “Dance Like Lamine Yamal” in Tribute to Football Prodigy
Nigerian Afrobeats star Skales is turning up the heat with an upcoming single that’s already creating major buzz: Dance Like Lamine Yamal. Inspired by the viral dance moves of Spanish football sensation Lamine Yamal, the track blends high-energy Afrobeat rhythms with a splash of Spanish flavor, delivering a vibrant tribute that bridges music and sports culture.
Skales, known for chart-topping hits like Shake Body, has been teasing the new release across his social media channels, sharing snippets that hint at an infectious dance anthem. The song was sparked by a viral moment when Yamal was caught on camera dancing to Shake Body — a clip that quickly took off online and captured the attention of fans across both the music and football worlds.
Adding even more excitement to the release is a special feature by 3Dnan, a Moroccan-born Spanish artist whose distinct vocal style and cultural blend add richness to the track. The collaboration brings a fresh dynamic, merging Afrobeat with Mediterranean melodies to create a truly global sound.
The track comes on the heels of a major highlight in Skales’ career: his electrifying performance at FC Barcelona’s Copa del Rey celebration. During the event, Skales had the chance to meet Lamine Yamal and several key Barça players — a moment that laid the foundation for this upcoming release and deepened the artist’s connection with the football community.
Dance Like Lamine Yamal is more than just a song — it’s a celebration of cultural exchange, youthful energy, and the unifying power of rhythm and movement. With its catchy beat, international flair, and tribute to a rising sports icon, the single is poised to become a favorite on global dancefloors.
As anticipation grows, fans won’t have to wait much longer. Dance Like Lamine Yamal is expected to be available on all major streaming platforms soon, marking another exciting chapter in Skales’ ever-evolving career and solidifying his place as one of Afrobeats’ most versatile and globally minded artists.
