Joseph Ankrah, popularly known as Joe or the ‘Humble Lion’, of TV3 Mentor II fame is coming out soon with an album.

As a teaser, he released a single, ‘Falling’, in January 2008, which is receiving airplay across the country.

Joe walked into the offices of Joy Fm in the company of one of his Managers and Executive Producer, Jason Gyamfi, to talk about the album.

The 12-track album, which is titled ‘Falling’ would be launched soon in February, and fans of Joe should expect a great musical work. The album is on the Lime Lyte Entertainment music label.

Joe, who started singing in church at the Ernest Bruce Methodist Church at Adabraka when he was five years old, told Joy Fm that he continued singing through to Labone Secondary School, until 2007, when he got the chance to take part in TV3’s music talent show, Mentor II.

According to him, the competition exposed him to the music world and helped sharpen his musical skills.

On this album, as his fans would expect, he sings about love.
His contribution to the music industry in Ghana would undoubtedly add to the rich repertoire of musical works that the country already has.

Joe tells his fans, “it is a promise I will keep, expect a great piece of musical work.”

But Joe’s journey to this point did not come easy; he told myjoyonline that it took him two years to get a producer. The lack of professional music producers seems to be keeping many young talented musicians in Ghana with great musical talents in the dark.

Thankfully, though, Joe’s time has come. He will launch his debut album in February.
