From what I'm hearing, it looking like a sudden heart attack. He had been feeling unwell for the past week

Congolese Music / Re: I MISS THE REAL TCHATCHO« on: January 08, 2024, 04:05 »you take v12 you add loi's sebenes and generiques instead of beevans rappa's parts you have a very very very difficult album to beat Did Beevan Rappa not have enough time to find cries for V12, because he sounded like he was improvising. His animation was less cohesive, just a bit of cries from Wenge Musica's Pentagone and a lot of belting. I heard he tried his luck at Cultura in the late 90s... 34
Congolese Music / Re: ATALAKU 3JOURS RETURNS TO VILLANOVA« on: January 07, 2024, 10:05 »I mean, being humiliated, not being paid, being given limited space on a song and then no space when Showme came, why would have he stayed?lol i hope for him that it wont be as rude as the 12 on adada because of merveille,man sold all his house fourniture and gave clothes to family and friend only to be told at airport by their young brother fabro's brother yves who is the secretary "where are you going" yo oza na liste te Only to come back, because solo career is very difficult to get started 35

And I'm sure Fabro will bring him to Europe for concerts because his animation section is looking really weak lately 36
Congolese Music / Re: THE NOUVEL HORIZON GUYS WHO LEFT IN FRANCE TEAM UP TO CREATE NH EL PARIGO« on: January 07, 2024, 09:30 »number 2 of zangul is fiston boko who joined from maison mere back in 2001/2002 and had been loyal with all the splits Fiston Boko was in Maison Mere?! I actually understand why it didn't work out for him, because everyone's place was cemented since Solola Bien – he had an advantage on Adjani and Aimelia when it came to dancing (that's it). Taka benefited from being Bill's friend and entering the group as a dancer first, then exploited the Les Marquis situation to graduate into singing. If I'm not mistaken, Prince d'Angola did the same thing... 37
Congolese Music / Re: BOURO MPELA HAS WON HIS SPOT OF DEPUTY« on: January 06, 2024, 17:48 »Is it possible to balance music and politics? I think so, he can limit concerts to two or three per month and still carry out his duties. You know with positions like these, there's a staff that does most of the work – he's just there to give authorization via signature, speak to press, or take meetings with important clientele. 38
Congolese Music / Re: THE NOUVEL HORIZON GUYS WHO LEFT IN FRANCE TEAM UP TO CREATE NH EL PARIGO« on: January 06, 2024, 17:45 »yes they probably teamed up with those who left extra musica zangul in the two tours of the recent years(the one before nh was created and the one after) So whose "number two" in Zangul right now? I remember Levyson used to be that role publicly. Also, I think NH should have done that system Zangul did for Papy Jah and Bastin back in 1998. They could have joined them to record Etat Major, but they had to wait. Maybe Sonor and Rama let those guys Willo, Bonbon Rouge, and FBI tour abroad too early in their career. At the same time, how do you really tell who will return or run away from a European tour? But that question I'm sure you'll answer in that thread you're working on, thanks as always and Happy New Year's to everyone!!! 39
Congolese Music / Re: BRIGADE THREATENS TO TAKE WERRA TO COURT« on: January 05, 2024, 20:36 »CNN spoke about this in his interview with Ado Yuhe, how is it only now Brigade found out he isn’t credited? Atalakus aren't credited for their work. For example guys like Mboshi and Somono realistically could be millionaires off of royalties by Loi alone with how many times that’s been played, sampled etc. The music industry is a dirty business especially Congolese genre. If the lawsuit is successful, does that open the doors for musicians to collect payments from their songs from group albums ? 40
Congolese Music / Re: LOFOMBO AND DJUNA MUMBAFU HAVE FINALLY MADE PEACE« on: January 05, 2024, 20:34 »
Was the years long beef really due to leadership wars for Delta Force or did it eventually pass over, but they never got around to talking until now? I don't think they were mad at each other for decades long 41
Congolese Music / Re: BOURO MPELA HAS WON HIS SPOT OF DEPUTY« on: January 05, 2024, 04:26 »Like title says,many musicians had gone for deputy role(bouro,werra,lacoste,jean goubald and co) and bouro is the first of them to have officially taken his role as a deputy and having his office already set What does this job entail? Why is it so desired by musicians? 42
Congolese Music / Re: APPARENTLY ANOTHER CRISIS HAPPENING IN CULTURA« on: December 25, 2023, 03:17 »
But why? Why fire all of them just like that? Has this ever happened in music before 43
Congolese Music / Re: NOUVEL HORIZON NEW EP IS OUT« on: December 21, 2023, 05:37 »HAHAHA we would have had "bana le monde entier nabengani sonor na ramatoulaye lol appelez moi le leader maximo enigma immorta le musicien le plus charismatique du monde" Do you think Levyson regrets going solo? His first generique is still the highest viewed song on his entire channel. Aside from that, it's a couple excerpts of playbacks, bland rhumbas, and interviews. I'm guessing he makes a little more money as a solo artist, because he doesn't split profit and donors with the group members like Ramatoulaye, Sonor, and others. But the pool of money is a lot less, because he doesn't carry the Extra Musica name which is still a strong brand. 44
Congolese Music / Re: THE RULES OF CONGOLESE MUSIC« on: December 19, 2023, 00:50 »yes some of the questions have answers in some of my older topic but you just gave me there an idea of how to structure my topic,i think i will do for example rehearsal rules,concert rules,studio rules and so on Also, could you give some stories of politics and conflicts that big bands had and were able to solve? We know often about the ones that split groups, but I've heard stories of donors, members, and even family members that have made interventions to keep a group from splitting or losing key members 45
