I taught Mukulu was a nickname that was made to sound like Papa Wemba's Bokul. Jb,Werra and the rest of Wenge are lucky that they were allowed to go back to Europe after the fakes visas scandal. And what was the conflict with Mobutu's son?

Mukulu comes from Tshiluba language it can mean Elder(used mostly in churches) as a mark of respect...comes from same family as Mukulumpa(big,as in big brotheror big man)

Conflict with Sadam, I heard it was between him and JB over a woman...Sadam even went as far as calling Aime Bwanga back in Kinshasa to take the name Wenge away from them.....but I also heard that there was a song in that album dedicated to someone Sadam was in conflict with! Lol

Thanks for that info, it must of been scary for JB because Sadam could of had him killed.

Archos I need some clarification if u could provide it

The Songs,Moni La Rose and Daddy Bitodi

I always thought Moni La Rose(formely Dodo La Rose) was a blaise Bula song..but in an interview with Nathy Lokole he says it's Masela's song

Same with Daddy Bitodi...Credited as JB's but after their European tours, at their Maman Angebi concert, the presentator(forgot his name) asked JB; whats the name of the second song you guys gonna sing....He replies: Amitié Daddy(daddy Bitodi) of Mandundila(Djolina)

Question: How can you be listed as the composer of a song but yet you say it's other group member's song?

  because the songs were reworked  the original songs were from blaise and djolina but when it was studio time,jb and masela gave the songs a different shape

Mukulu comes from Tshiluba language it can mean Elder(used mostly in churches) as a mark of respect...comes from same family as Mukulumpa(big,as in big brotheror big man)

That's how we say it in my Zambian language too,''mukulu'' meaning he's older or ''umukulu.''

exactly the conflict was a about a beautiful woman of mixed race  who prefered jb to saddam despite saddam's money and power,saddam wanted to punish him harder but other brothers like nzanga defended jb,so the only remaining way of punishing him was blocking their album until that woman accepts to leave jb(which happened as that woman who gave him a children  went with saddam and amida came in)

koffi olomide miss des miss is that song talking about the same woman hes with right now ? and how did he meet her and what was their relation ?

This topic is for information on JB Mpiana or Wenge family not vieux Ebola.
