A few weeks after this, on Day 21 of the national lockdown, the singer decided to shave off his much-loved beard.  

‘If you shaved a lion’s mane, pulled its teeth and cut its nails, what would he be??? A lion!!! Just because he doesn’t look or feel like a lion, doesn’t make him any less than a lion," the Skepe-hitmaker wrote on his Instagram post. 

Jo mentioned that he is anticipating a lot of positive and negative comments, but ensured his followers that change is the only constant at the moment. He added that "every day is a new day for a new start."

So here goes, I am anticipating a lot of positive and negative comments, but here’s the thing.... Change is the only constant at the moment, everyday is a new day for a new start. I have decided to start over. A second chance to do things better, with better intent and more heart than before. We are not defined by the opinions of others. If you shaved a lion’s mane, pulled it’s teeth and cut it’s nails, what would he be??? A lion!!! Just because he doesn’t look or feel like a lion, doesn’t make him any less than a lion. Being a musician doesn’t define me, having a beard doesn’t define me. It’s heart that defines us. Good times builds confidence, hard times builds character. Here’s to second chances👊🏼👦🏻
