After a period of intense popularity, the band lost ground to other new artists and only regained nationwide exposure with the release of a new album in 2009.^[1] The band was a launching point for several other successful artists, most notably including Tsiliva, who ranks among the most popular contemporary performers of the kilalaka genre.^[2]
