The duo that consists of Palagabedi Mphoyakgosi and Thono Nkwate started out as a five-member group that had broken away from Charma Gal’s ensemble to pursue a musical career of their own. The group has since lost most of its members with only the current two still retaining the group’s credentials whereas two other members retraced their steps back to Charma Gal and the other one pursuing a solo career.
