Congolese Music / A Congolese guitarist playing Benga
« on: December 18, 2016, 11:55 »
This Congolese played benga style guitar (popular in Kenya) just to prove he can..hehehe.
This helped me differentiate congolese style from the kenyan style.

words of encouragement from JB.....below
"Rien à dire , félicitations à mon fils Mignon Abraham ... La 5eme Génération devra compter avec lui maintenant ! Très bon travail , bon courage et bonne chance mon petit , tout BCBG est derrière toi ."
rough translation
"Nothing to say, congratulations to my son Mignon Abraham ... The 5th Generation will have to count on him now! Very good work, good luck and good luck my little, all BCBG is behind you."

Congolese Music / Drummer alalisa tempo ?

This is an expression frequently used in reference to Seguin drumming.  Any drum expert who can explain this to me. Feel free to add the technical bits.

So Shamala, if I got you right, it is until I have a godfather amongst the "lord(s)of the manor" (Kibens,Seguin,JDL,Rio,Roger) that I will become untouchable in BCBG.... Really!!!  Is that a healthy work environment?Is that the appropriate way to fair in a group?  Once I don't have them to help me "cushion" the internal politics therein, they would definitely make my stay a hellish one..  You called these mean men "mentor/protector"...Wow! This explanation is really wonderful.
So the fans that complained about these wicked men too were just trying to play politics and cry foul over nothing... Nice!

I mean whenever you join,a senior guy can help you navigate the internal dynamics of a band. There is usually intense competition internally and if you are good chances are you will receive flak. "protectors" are not necesssarily Kibens,Seguin,JDL,Rio,Roger  I just used them as an example. Backbiting,backstabbing sorcery etc just to get ahead in any band is quite evident.
About fans I meant fans pressure is what will force changes.

Nono Fudji ...
Bcbg is like love charm. No one feels like running away even f things are against them. Nono Fuji should leave the moment abrahams cd is popular....he will not last in bcbg....

I think you don't leave just for the sake. Some understand their deficiencies and understand they cannot make leaders. In BCBG no-one is forced to stay, why do they complain after leaving.  I think this nature of internal politics is not unique to BCBG.

Let me offer two pence worth of opinion. In BCBG it pays to have a mentor/protector who will cushion you from the internal politics. Cellulaire was strong until his "protectors " left him.  Independent individuals like Metreau have it tough when in conflict. At the moment touch Blaise you touch Seguin, Fusee... Genta Le Quado.... Kibense  Tolbert.... Ficcare etc. Zulema is favored by JB.

Leaving or individual  defections will not shake BCBG  or any of the big bands because the have too much  muscle.  I suggest that such defections lead to formation of group bands and not solo artists. I was just listening to Marquis and Academia and my my would they have succeeded. However big egos is not a strange subject.  Check  on any who left and see how they fare on... Djino, Chai, Bogus.

Finally if you watched the four hours BCBG  concert you could have seen a very aggressive audience with demands and this was not in Kinshasa. Now this will make JB and CO.  listen.  Hope for revival lies in aggressive fans and audience.

And that atalaku Angola was clearly crushed by Fusee......

Clearly Prince d'Angola did anticipate the "war rocket"......Hehehe... He got burnt. Genta laughing!!!

jdog because those guys except the "smartest" or guys like wata who have long term europe papers,do not have their professional passport in their hands,so in most cases they make a new passport which often gets rejected easily since there are no signs of previous flights, apparently deplick has been released today surely they checked and noticed thats a guy who came and returned 6 times or so if not a bit more

I have not watched..
