Wutah

Tagged:

Wutah is made up of Daniel Morris (Risky) and Frank Osei (Papa Virus/PV). Their songs can fall under the genres of hiplife, rhythm and blues and reggae. Wutah is a Hausa word that means fire.

They came together as a group during a programme at Wesley Grammar Secondary School in Accra. They are both trained in engineering. They got their first big break while performing in the Ghana contest for Nescafe's African revelation where they placed second. They were known as Ojah at the time which also means fire in the Akan Twi language.

Their debut album, Anamontuo, was a major success which won them an unprecedented 11 Ghana music award nominations. Big Dreams, one of their hits, has become one of the biggest reggae hits out of Ghana, even gaining airplay in Jamaica.

Some of their popular songs include Adonko, Den, Lomnava, Nonnsia abo, Foriwaa, Menye den, Alomo, etc

I recently spent six weeks in Ghana and fell in love with Wutah. Where can I buy one of their albums now that I'm back in the U.S.?!?!?

I can't find Wutah CD too. Maybe, it can be in one of the music shops on the web?

Seriously, I don't see why Wutah failed to make a video for any of their top 3 songs for which we have the lyrics on museke.
And now, their second album has not been publicized that much either.
Black Kapricorn? Stand up!

Wutah faya!
