So far it appears everything is going on well for Rockford Josphats ("Roki"), the Zimbabwean celebrity housemate in the Big Brother StarGame.
Apart from gaining weight from the calorific treats in the Upville house, Roki has lined up at least three rousing videos which are due for release anytime soon.
The videos, which will be released by "Team Roki" - a fanclub, are expected to rally support for the urban grooves star and ensure that he stays the course until the 91 days when the winner is expected to walk out with a whopping US$300 000 prize money while at this stage, the reality series is still anyone's game.
Those who want Roki to win are doing everything possible to mobilise votes each eviction week.
According to Discord (Lovedale Makalanga), the three videos would be out anytime soon.
"We have about three or so videos that Roki recorded before he went into the Big Brother house. And since he left we are only relying on the tips that he gives us through watching the show," Discord, a former member of the famed group Mafriq said.
One of the videos to watch out for is one called "Dandaro" featuring MC Chita.
The music video begins with the death of Roki who goes to heaven.
He comes back to his loved one as an angel dressed in all white.
Unfortunately, Roki can only sing to his loved one while his lover only reminisces on the good old days.
However, his friend and confidante (played by MC Chita) will be rapping along the tree-lined streets in the neighbourhood where they used to hang out.
The concept of showing Roki's death and him being an angel on earth depict life in Shona as a game - "dandaro".
The second video features his on-off wife Pauline Gundidza. The song, which was premiered at the Miss Zimbabwe pageant in February, contains some samples of
Shanice Wilson's "I Love Your Smile".
The video shows Roki and Pauline playing lovey-dovey on the lush green grass while their friends enjoy themselves at a shopping centre in Waterfalls, Harare.
The friends, who are mostly members of Roki's dance group called Chocolate City, spice the video with their superb performances as they break dance and ride on their bikes.
The third video features MC Chita again and it is called "Gimme Dat" while another rousing video of the song "Usandicheme" featuring Discord is a masterpiece.
Roki appears dressed in a long robe similar to those worn by actors in the film "Passion of the Christ". The song is good and mellow and well complemented in vocals by Discord.
It remains to be seen whether or not the new songs will beat his previous hit "Chidzoka".
