After a controversial argument with his former camp-mate Ofori Amponsah over monies owed him and also for the fact that he had been featuring on people’s songs too much, Barosky quit the camp and went solo.

He released his 10-track album Okyerewaa Ba in 2007 and enjoyed related airplay. He has featured on the works of various artistes such as Ofori Amponsah, Kofi Nti and K. K. Fosu and also Sidney's Scent No. He is a single father of one boy.
