6. Kobby Wuta (Wuta) – The duo had their names in the big shows in the past. But for some strange reasons they ended their ‘marriage’ and went on solo for eight years. Kobby was not doing well but Afriyie was on top of his game. However the duo has dropped a banging song to announce their comeback this year.
7. Five-Five – The pop fusion duo also registered their names in the music industry with some beautiful tunes. However, the Adabraka-based duo made up of Luther Azamati (Papi) and Jeffery Opoku Agyekum (Killy) couldn’t stand the test of time.
