Ong Back Solo doesn't convince me. Im surprised a lot of you aren't fans of Makaba. He's improved a lot since he first came. I like his aggressive and simple style, and the fact he doesn't try too hard to be like Kapaya. If you listen to the repetitions from the last couple years Makaba did a great job. Only maybe Sarah solo can come back but im not sure.

It's not even close. Makaba is way better and Ong Back Solo should stay at rhythem. They need to find a better replacement.
What about the guitarist Makaba Arc en Ciel? If he’s gone I truly think it’s over for werrason. He was the reason I still kept listening to all of the repetitions/concerts until now.
It’s sad because if he did a fire generique and had a music video similar to the Quality of the Bokoko video, that would’ve taken off as well. The priorities are really messed up with this genre. Minimum effort, maximum popularity
“You used to dance Bokoko, but now another banger!” I cracked up when I heard that. You gotta be kidding me lol he’s so out of touch with his music it’s not even funny
Werra is a legend but as of right now……there are other artists and bands better than Werra and Maison Mere.
Like?
Good question. I see Maison Mere hold fully packed rehearsals and energetic practice sessions that no other band is doing. Werra has a second/reserve team with more quality than several main bands so while we are allowed to have different tastes and preferences, when we rate artists/bands, objectivity requires that we show what criteria we using.....
Totally agreed! If we're being honest, no one in this genre is killing it at the moment and have fallen off from their glory days. At least with Werrason, and JB at times I still really enjoy their rehearsals, concerts and practice sessions.
I don’t know why, I can’t pin point it but I like their smaller concerts/repetitions a lot better. They are way too conservative when it comes to the bigger concerts. Same with werrason at times.
On top of that they always perform the sebene songs from their classic 90s albums all the time. Like they'll rarely produce new sebene songs so they always revert back to the ones in concerts. How about keeping that same energy and have only rhumba concerts? Because they know it will flop
