During his interview, Skales opened up about being broken, not believing in love anymore, and more. He said:

SKALES: I'm a broken man right now. I don't believe in love anymore. I just believe that human beings are selfish. There is really no love. There is a motive behind every love right now. And it's crazy because I feel the realest love is still my mum's love and maybe God's love and even though in a way I feel like I'm offending God when I say that because God is love y'know. But I'm just talking about the human form of love, it's like there's none of that.

I believe I'm a great person that is in a wrong generation. It's like there's a competition now between the men and the women. I hang out with a lot of females, and every day I'm like this generation is totally lost. My family was broken and I have an experience of love still. Seeing what I'm seeing now is crazy man, and it's like a circle. Everybody just gets recycled.

I used to love love. But falling in love right now is such a dangerous thing. True story is that I'm like the only flesh and blood from my family that is alive right now. I have no uncle, no aunty. It's part of what's affecting me. I'm beginning to understand that and I'm talking about it because that's like my own therapy. And also, as I talk more about it, I feel like someone would be inspired by my life and see how no matter what is going on around me, I'm still going at it.
