I was listening to bana lunda, and I thought to myself, wow, JB can actually sing, and then I felt like real-world records should've given him a chance to internationalize his music like they gave papa wemba with Le Voyageur (1992), Emotion (1995) and 1998's Molokai I feel like he would've done an excellent job cuz his voice is unique and he's a great vocalist especially on Feux De l'Amour

I don’t see how JB could make an album for real world records though. Papa Wemba had many styles he could adapt. I heard he had some hip hop albums recorded.

I can easily see records like, I love you, being on a real world album, and adapting to a different style; who knows, put some different producers around him like David Monsoh and watch the magic that would come out of it. it wouldn't shock me at all if papa wemba recorded a hip hop album cuz ye te oh got a beat and a hook that's on the hip hop/rnb vibe the original version, btw not the one with the white woman that couldn't sing a note

Congolese have to get to work. This is their chance to fuel this genre. I am also wandering why JB could perhaps include BCBG as well in this. You have Fally with Tookoos and Ferre starting his. This is a chance to make our music worldwide. Also I feel they need to promote heavily.
