P-Square to Sign Predy X

Square Records and Northside Entertainment is said to be closing in on Ghanaian Afro-pop singer, Samuel Omane-Mensah aka Predy X, barely two months after parting ways with May D. The duo who parted ways with May D over "irreconcilable differences", is reported to be keen on getting the highly-rated Ghanaian youngster into its fold. It was reported that CEO of Square Records and Northside Entertainment, Jude 'Engees' Okoye said the deal was expected to be concluded in the "coming days".

Bayo Adetu, publicist for Square Records, which features the talented music duo P-Square, is reported to have told a Nigerian magazine, 'Entertainment Today' that their pursuit of Predy X was due to his versatile music talent.

Predy X is said to have been discovered when a top producer mentioned him in a discussion, there after, the management of the label assessed and decided to give him a chance.

The young Ghanaian who is signed on to X Entertainment, is expected to move his base to Nigeria to agree to terms of Square Records, with the latter keen on avoiding the same mistake that led to its separation with May D.

Currently, Predy X's 'Dance With My Baby' is enjoying massive play in pubs and nightclubs in Nigeria and Ghana.

The 25-year-old musician, a graduate of Ghana Institute of Journalism, is optimistic that the deal will materialize as soon as possible.

Predy X told 'Entertainment Today' that his hard work was finally paying off. "I am sure what might have endeared me to Square Records is my knack for performing with live bands rather than miming."
