Netizens had a light moment on X as they reacted to a comment by Joshua Baraka’s former manager, Lobstar, on A Pass’ latest hit, which he dubbed the song of the year.

“SONG OF THE YEAR💯💯” Lobstar posted on X while reacting to a video shared by A Pass performing the song at Abeeka Band’s concert on Saturday night.

Lobstar’s comment on Sunday, May 3, 2026, came after Joshua Baraka confirmed he was no longer with his old management, though the split is amicable.

Lobstar and DJ Ssese, who were both involved in Baraka’s management and music distribution at the early stages of his career, are yet to comment on the split.

Baraka is yet to share details of his current management structure, but reports show Richard, the manager of his girlfriend Etania, is handling bookings.

Reports also indicate that MOVES Recordings, an independent UK-based record label that has been handling him alongside Ssese and Lobstar, could be taking full charge. The label already manages artistes across rap, RnB, bashment and Afrobeats.
