Joshua Baraka Denies Signing to New Label, Confirms Independence

Singer Joshua Baraka has moved to clear the air after days of speculation about his management situation.

The conversation started after reports emerged that he had parted ways with Lobstar and Ssese Nation, sparking claims that he was either joining Jeff Kiwa or signing with a Nigerian label.

Baraka later confirmed that his working relationship with Lobstar and Ssese Nation had changed, but insisted there was no fallout.

I have been seeing that conversation. Those are my brothers, first of all. All that I have and where I have reached, it has been Lob and Ssese. They will always be part of my story. We are just working in a different way now. We are still brothers, everything is going well. I think some people have exaggerated the situation, but there is no issue whatsoever.

Despite that clarification, speculation about a new deal continued to circulate online.

He has now addressed those claims directly, shutting down reports that he has signed with any international label.

Responding to a post on X, Baraka said he is currently independent and focused on building his own structure.

This is misinformation. I am not signed to any new management. I am fully independent now and just building a team around me as I am trying to do my own thing. I have been with my brothers for 5 years. It only makes sense that I try to step out and grow.

His statement brings clarity to the situation, confirming that his next move is independence rather than a new label deal.
