The Mentor Reality Show has been one gold mine for producers these days and it's not surprising that almost all the participants are acheiving some of their childhood dreams of becoming musicians or entertainers.

Many were those who touted him as the R Kelly of Ghana music but he chose to name himself the 'Humble Lion'.

He endeared himself to many of the viewers and the public alike during and after Mentor 2 and it as no surprise as he is about to break new and conquer bigger territories just like a true lion.

Joe is all but set to sign a 'deal with J 2 Records, one biggest recording and artist management company's in Africa and this record deal would mean Joe having to leave and reside in South Africa during his recording and whatever post production slated for him.

The contract agreement when signed(anytime soon) would mean Joe would have to record all this thirteen track CD with a live band in Ghana and the final product being mixed and mastered in Ghana.

In a telephone conversation with Joe, he hinted that he is waiting for the arrival of the big guns of J2 Records to the country anytime soon, preferably before the end of this month to seal the already cooked deal.

"I am just waiting to put pen to paper and things will start rolling. I have written most of my songs and soon I would be making it big on the international scene as well as in my country Ghana; the Humble Lion added.

'As part of the pre-contractual agreement I would have to relocate to SA for my post production and the promotion of my album and I would be there for as long as the contract permits', he concluded.

We hope that nothing comes in his way in his attempt to contribute his quota to taking Ghanaian music onto the international market and we wish him well.
