In the video he says that he will make an 8 song album with no crie neither vocals just "manganese na mbanga" which is a kinda vulgar way to say mouth. Anyway the comments under the video are destroying him saying that Zacharie he is a Kizengi (Stupid) and a guy without class. Why that? What did Zacharie did at the time to be hated?

Ah yes, this one. The world wasn't ready for a Zacharie Bababaswe album, that's why it never dropped ;D. Plus, who would want to listen to Zaccle le Nduleman going off and ranting for an hour or less? Did he still have enough people watching his interviews and videos at the time?

Back then Zacharie Bababaswe was the most popular journalist in Kinshasa and the Congolese diaspora in Europe. He even made a show at Stade des Martyrs on his own where 65.000 people attented different to the one of his rival Serge Kayembe who had almost the same amount at l'Esplanade de Palais du Peuple but needed to invite various bands (Wenge Maison Mere, Nouvelle Ecriture, etc.).
After thing changed for Zacharie Babababaswe from the moment he released this video. Making himself ridiculous. He was never afraid to attack Koffi Olomide, Werrason, Nyoka Longo, JB Mpiana, etc. in his videos and doing kind of comedy. But this time it turned bad for him. He made this video to react against Lesamisdewetchi, they made a show against him after that people heard that he recorded a video at Centre Fermé in Vottem (I don't know how you call it in English). It's a prison where immigrants who don't have papers, being illegal are placed until they will get deported. Some are there for two years. Back then Zacharie Bababaswe hadn't released that video yet, but people went mad on him, like he wanted to humilate the Congolese diaspora in Europe, which wasn't even the case. So to react
against them he made a whole DVD. The DVD sold alot, but he made enemies. It was also the same era when the combattans-phenomenon appeard. The combattans saw him as a pro-Kabila. He had also problems with Angolan people, for the way he insulted some people who used a poster of him during when protesting against Centre Fermé and him saying that they don't had the right to do that, because they aren't Congolese but Bazombo. The next year Popol Mukelenge invited a journalist Philemon Ndombele (RIP) who reacted against Zacharie Bababaswe. The same Zacharie Bababaswe would react against the two guys in 2008.



Although, not being loved anymore in Europe like the way used to be back in the years 1999-2003 during the polemic era.He still remained popular in Kinshasa. He created there his own television channel and a show called Lingala Facile. Who would for like 5 years being the most followed tv-show in Kinshasa.

The late Jean-Willy Bondjala (RIP) was a journalist based in Brussels who often used to write articles and make interviews with the Congolese diaspora and Congolese musicians. Zacharie Bababaswe attacks him for the way he criticized the way he made that interview in Vottem and accepted to do the campaign "Vanda na Mboka" made by the Belgian governement who was collaborating with Congolese governement, associating also artists like Werrason, etc.
