A UK-based Ghanaian musician, Francis Augustine Mensah Kojo Edu, (popularly known in showbiz as Don Jojo), is to shake Ghana with his new album, the Stickup Kid - Farac-Cann Music. However, the actual date has not yet been scheduled.

This young artiste started working on his album in 2006 and has recorded additional seven hit tracks. He has therefore, become one out of the thousands hip-pop artistes who have worked very hard to keep the Ghanaian music burning in UK.

The album has seven tracks including the Stickup Kid. The most interesting thing about this album is the quality of the sound track, the recordings and everything that makes music tick.

According to him, the two tracks which brought him into the lime light - The Burning Rose and It’s a Shame - which talk about relationship, featured Samita. Another track Lyfe, featuring Djinn on the vocals, also talks about what he went through with his mum and siblings when his dad left them.
Other songs on the album include All I Need, Tell Me and a remix, Burning Rose.

“For me it’s the only thing I love doing because I wasn’t really good in class but I tried to find something I could escape to and with God, every thing is possible,” he stated in an interview with The Saturday Statesman.

He explained that he was brought up in a church “but I always see myself as a lost soul and as a child growing up.” That wasn’t very pleasant because in those days things were very rough and his mother had to go through a lot before he later found himself back in the UK to change everything for himself and his family.

Since music seems to be the only thing he knew, he took that path and was later introduced to Djinn through a bosom friend, which led him to his new album. “I always wanted to have my own record label so I was glad with the help of Djinn Music which helped me to establish the Farac-Cann Music.

The said date of the Farac-Cann Music show in Ghana would be announced soon to the general public.
