Like politics, music has a lot of cadres who seem to support artists in everything be it good or bad. I do not want to sound perfect or better than others but Wenge Maison Mere is so poorly manged even a five year old baby would tell. They recruit everyday. Some musicians leave even before making it on an album. Werrason needs to check the following:

1. You cannot have half the band leave a few weeks before release of an album and still have the guts to say they are wrong. You are not dealing with babies but adults who reason and they will question your thinking.

2. Music comes with attachments, you cant keep changing musicians like clothes and expect to keep a large fan base.

3. No matter how good an album is if half of the people who sung on it leave shortly before its release, then it will be a flop

3. Why do admins, Kakol and one artist seem to receive favours while those who have stayed longer, are better musicians and remained loyal are sidelined? What kind of management is that? Worse still they are volunteers?? Only street kids would remain in such a band.

4. If musicians leave you to join an artist of their age and generation with only one album, it says a lot about how frustrated they are. All their boss does is to share pictures of his newly acquired mansion in Chicago with his preferred team members enjoying while the rest wallow in poverty despite sacrificing so much for the group. That is simply unacceptable and Congo DR should check this.

5. As time goes all the remaining good ones will go and it will even be difficult to poach from other bands.


Lobeso, Polyster, Arnake, Olivier, Eboa (close), Tadet (close), Mile (close) ...... all these are almost out of the band and all you do is insult them and show off your wealth while favouring others?? Let him shift to Chicago and get a job for some American artist as a sound engineer or something than torture these innocent hard working young men and women. His style of management is the worst in history. Congo DR should have a regulatory institution, levels of exploitation in the music industry are too high and Werrason should be the first target.

Watanabe should just get the entire band. Let him get Kakol, Bikorino, Sarah, Ambulance and the rest. He knows what he is doing and success is assured. Werrason and JB should retire stop wasting our time. JB takes a decade to release an album and Werrason runs his band like a piggery. That is what has remained of Wenge!

Nalanda napwisha!

This guy is so underrated.

I agree with top three.  Right now caferoum is by far the best.

The album has two generiques: one has bakaya kitoko, toza libanda, liboka and Gobert chants while the other one has charge and mangole yawewa and other new chants

This is great.  This type of music sells. English Speaking countries will enjoy as well

He was called by leaders and talked to him. He apologized to Werra. WMM is working on project new generation involving him, Arnake, Caferoum and other new guys of which he has a part to play.

Let's wait and listen to the album.  There is still room to produce an album ten times better.  Werra  has a list of songs he has kept way back from the Wenge days.  He  unleashed a few on solola bien and kibuisa and kept some for future albums one being Arch de Noe. 90% kibuisa was not done by any of the guys who participated on it.  They just sung and played on it and added a bit (10%). Those songs were from way back even before first album of Maison Mere.

indeed but the bigger problem is that jb does not seem to be any interested anymore to be in big spotlight about music,the only hope of having again a jb interested about being among the best of the year(which means being into competition) is when he'll do his solo album
back on maison mere topic,why not try to get gesac,although for me he does shout too much in live he is experienced and energetic and it will be million times better that the current career he has of playing in small bars of tshangu and being mocked "un peu de whisky" because  due to big career downfall when he goes to nightclubs he just goes from table to table to drink some whisky bought by other people

Good suggestion, though I would advise Werra to stick with Ambulance and the new guy Congo Central. I find him more creative and interesting than Diego and Gobert. As for Ambulance, I think the guy is versetile and is proving to be better than a lot of WMM recent Atalukus.

But can Tutu leave leave Europe to come and join retirees in BCBG who once in a decade when pressured would produce an album. Iam sure we have all heard of reports that he has been trying to get back to BCBG.

Lof Lofombo is way too senior and respected of a figure to join any group as he effectively runs a studio and has his own Delta Force band.  (I AGREE WITH YOU HERE)

Tutu Calludji is living well in Europe with his family, I don't see why he'd return to Kin to work for Werra, as he knows all too well his negative temperaments from later years of Wenge 4x4.  (HE IS NOT DOING AS FINE AS YOU THINK. HE HAS ACTUALLY BEEN CONTEMPLATING GETTING BACK TO TO KIN TO REJOIN BCBG BUT THERE IS RESISTANCE FROM BCBG MEMBERS WHO SURROUND JB)

Olivier Tshimanga of is booked year round with studio work in Paris. He has a unique and highly respected musical position he wouldn't leave to play for drunk fans at La Zamba every Thursday night (let's be honest), waiting for them to give him validation. (I AGREE WITH YOU HERE)

Brigade like most artists who have gone solo has too much pride and would not revert to square one. (BRIGADE, DEPLICK AND FABREGAS ARE NOW ON TALKING TERMS WITH WERRA. BRIGADE IS NOT DOING THAT FINE WITH HIS BAND. THE SPONSORSHIP DEALS HAVENT COME TO FRUITION AS EXPECTED. HE HAS NO PRIDE. HE LEFT BECAUSE OF HERITIER).

lol, Marchouse has insulted Werra way too much for him to just accept Marchouse. Anyways Marchouse only wants to a part of the 5th generation. ( NO ONE TAKES THOSE INSULTS SERIOUSLY. ITS POLEMIQUE. JUST LIKE BERCY INSULTED WERRA AND WENT TO HIM AND INSULTED FERRE AND RETURNED.) MARCHOUSE HAS A PURE WMM BEHAVIOUR).

RUMOURED LEAVING:

Tadet, Miel, Eboa, Nicodem & Kakol.

Tadet -working on an album
Miel - He has had a band for over two years now
Nico - Rumoured to be working with Kakol
Kakol - The Linda issues and challenged by young ones like Herritier. He feels he can do better
Eboa - Rumoured to be part of the Lobeso group

INTERNAL CHANGES
Caferoum is stepping up. He is already taking dance lessons
Olivier will be promoted and given a bigger role
Sarah and Bikorino will be made Artistic Directors
Melin Bouton, Cedric Effecer, Tonny Montana will be brought back with two guys from Ferre's camp joining (not sure about names)
Bercy Mwana is openly telling his friends that the day Kakol leaves WMM he will go back and beg to join.


A five man shortlist of Chef D'Ochestra with surprise names:1) Tutu Kaludji (I hear with JB's permission. Its like there is internal resistance to him getting back BCBG and the Europe based Wenge is not making much progress); 2) Brigade ( Still struggling with his band and is in good terms with Werra), 3) Olivier Shimanaga   4) Gode Lufombo  5) Makahouse (Grevi is ready to remove his chaque book. He will replace Coreen and his aggression is much appreciated). The person who gets the job will be paid directly by Skol ( Werra is close to agreeing a big deal with skol).

462
That is too quick for him.  He should have waited and built a following like Miel. No wonder Werra is giving Caferoum more space now.

What is her real name? She is such a good dancer and seems to be "very" comfortable in WMM. Koffi tried to porch her but I hear she resisted.
