It thought that the question was about the conflict of Werrason against JB Mpiana. About the money it already started a long time again. After the 1990-91 tour, many musicians were unhappy about not paid well including JB Mpiana and Alain Makaba himself. JB Mpiana didn't mind, but Alain Makaba was really dissapointed because he had done hard work during the recordings of the album and also concerts because rhythm player Collegien ran away after 2 concerts. His uncle wanted him to stay in Europe to study music, but Makaba was first against it and being eager to return back. After that dissapointed he ended up by following his uncle's advice and went to settle in London. When Wenge came back in 1992 for a tour he joined them and participated to the recordings of Pleins Feux and Kalayi Boeing. At the end of tour many musicians were fustrated for not being paid well while the tour being a big succes, musicians like Désire Kalala and Don Pierrot Mbonda decided to stay. Alain Makaba was also mad because he also not paid well by the admins. In opinion of the admins, Makaba hadn't the right to be paid like them because he was in Europe while they were suffering in Kinshasa. Makaba then threatened to erase all his work in Kalayi Boeing & Pleins Feux and not return back to Kinshasa with them which scared the admins and made them pay more money.
I don't remember if it was the tour of 1994 or that of 1995. I think the one of 1995 and when the tour ended, one of the admins claimed that all the money got stolen by new jack gangsters in Brussels and the musicians couldn't pay. But the 3 admins ended up by buying mercedes benz cars
Here is actually a good comment from the video that sums today's Wenge Musica Maison Mere

Well, Koffi did not like Jordan when he came in 1999 and used to leave him when he was on tours, and when it was time for Bercy, he left him behind. Jordan then came to Europe with everyone being confused with Koffi asking why he was here. Then when they were touring in Europe after Bercy, Koffi used to leave him behind hoping he would leave but Jordan was always following them. The police one time asked Koffi if he knew Jordan with Koffi saying no. Also when they were recording Force de Frappe, Jordan did not have a song. Jordan asked Koffi why he did not get a song when he came before all the others and had to convince Koffi to let him put a song on the album. Also one time in 2001 during a concert backstage, Jordan tried to joke around with Koffi, but Koffi said that he did not really want him there. During the same time, Koffi was in a beef with JB Mpiana and said to Jordan to insult Wenge BCBG back when Tutu Caludji said he was the real Mopao Mokonzi, but Jordan refused because he had his reputation almost destroyed so Koffi started liking him less. In 2002 you had the girlfriend drama that made Koffi mad and left him when they were going to Europe. After the Kora Awards, when Koffi went to Kinshasa for some interviews, Koffi said to Jordan that he was going to get a song on Affaire d’etat and tour with him in Europe, but Koffi ended up leaving him. Also during the same time Koffi was calling him a dog. Which made Jordan leave. When Jordan came back in 2004 he was less popular than he was when he left. One time Jordan talked to Aliya because they did not have some food but Koffi heard that and was not happy that Jordan talked to her. In 2005, during the GHK concert when Emeneya came during a rehearsal, Jordan sang all the Emeneya songs but not Koffi’s song which made Koffi think he was a spy. So during the concert, Koffi tried to ban Jordan from coming on stage but Jordan came in force. So when they were finished singing Riziki, Jordan said to Fally that he was leaving his group, then Fally said “stop joking” but Jordan said “oh yeah watch me” and jumped off of stage to go to his car and drove off. Jordan then made an album I do not remember the name of but along the lines of 7 ans cruelles translated to 7 cruel years but changed the name to Danger de Mort just to piss Koffi off. Then when visiting Fally during a concert he said to the crowd “that there will be a man with mad blood pressure” referring to Koffi. That is the story between Koffi and Jordan. Some say Jordan is the most 12’d person in Quartier Latin.
