Apart from Mvula ya bolingo all the other songs sound the same, I think he has stuck to the second or is it third generation sound?(madilu, Nyboma, TP and Bana OK, Bozi Boziana, Tabu Ley et al)......... happy listening to fans of this kind of rumba though
Maybe I need to listen to it more for it to grow on me but for now am not feeling it. A downgrade from MAMD generique in my opinion. Saving grace for me is that I am more a rumba fan so I know there will be enough delicacies for me and my ilk when the album comes out
Werrason actually needs a very good soloist, I'm not convinced by current team and seems he actually prefers Yamukolo more on solo and Vedes on mi solo.
The quality of the sebene is very poor in rehearsals and I am 100% in agreement with you. The signature hard-hitting WMMM sebene is lost and replaced with a very uncoordinated sound. On another note, I have watched many rehearsals and I have never seen Van Vedes play....@Nkosi, is it possble you upload a video of him playing prominenetly? Yamukolo has refused to grow on me....bang average IMO
He is unhappy with the fact that werra took chai's song that they sang together to release on his name,and that chai received nothing,and that werra took two dancers the soloist and some singers from chai band while he had to be his "mentor" or producer its like he approached chai to destroy him while chai was not even strong enough yet mann everytime siblings of our artists appear on tv its never to appease things but rather to make it explode
About the dancers, I know he took Udjana and Balotteli. Did he not ask Chai for permission to take them? For soloist and singers, what are their names? I haven’t seen any new soloist or singers in rehearsals
....Just thinking....if it had happened in that other band, allegations of witchcraft and sacrifice would have already filled the air....my condolences though
One of the biggest mistakes Werrason made was to abandon that which made him great. He is good at performances and not slows. This means he needs a good team of dancers, both male and female. The female team is now sealed: 1. Udjana 2. Balotelie 3. Ketchy 4 Ketto 5. Solanje 6. Sarah 7. Linda 8. Tanya
He has upgraded Roi Sabo to first team and has settled for Yamukolo and Van Vedes on solo. Based on the information I got, Morote has 3 generiques: Two traditional generiques with one of them being a live recording and 1 folklore (the current one they are vibing to.
Who is the atalaku on the extreme left of the screen, next to Michigan? Where Jamaique always is?
Tutu must be a legend..... it's curious how if it was any other artist the commentary here would have been very loud of how that is a big step back.......
He is called Djanelly, was with Ferre up to a few months ago. Left and started calling himself Djanelly Ipupa and has come full circle...I am not very sure but he keeps singing parts of Ba Chinois by Ibrator when he was with Ferre and here at the test so makes me think he may have been with Ibrator before Ferre but just a hunch. On top of all, he has such an easy way of singing he'll improve Werra's vocal lineup which is not bad but just bang average......
Werrason likes Wasabo so much such that unlike others who had to go through the reserve team, he came straight into the first team. He was openly praising him and his creativity three weeks ago. Wenge MMM fans also love him so much. He has not been given much space because they mostly do old animation which has been shared between Jamiaque and Golbert. However, he has been given space on Morote and we will see him taking a leading role next year, Jamique will most likely leave and focus on his band in Kisangani.
Wasabo can really reenergize Werra's animation department given a chance and exposure. It's been flat for far too long
Omusakhulu, I think you got it wrong. He is not recruiting new atalakus. The three featured here are his atalakus, Jamaique, Wasabo and Golberg. Jamaique has been there since Ambulance left, Goldberg even longer and Wasabo was recruited early or mid this year.
My bad, I don't know them... The Gucci guy cri was impressive
The Gucci guy is Wasabo, the most creative in my opinion, and has a real atalaku's voice plus interesting stage antics and engages the crowd quite well. I am just curious why Werrason doesn't regard him as highly as the other two washed-out ones. He is given very limited opportunities in repetitions and concerts. Maybe @Nkosi the insider could shed a light why the most talented and versatile atalaku is the one at the bottom of the pyramid..

A friend of mine told me that the full venue is 20000 people with the minimum attendance at 7k meaning that they won't give you the hall unless you sell 7k tickets my friends said that Ferre would even struggle to get the 7k let alone 20k I have said that yes it might not fill the 20k because Ferre unfortunately is for Congolese and Congolese people only (I have rarely heard a person outside of Diaspora speaking about Ferre) but I think he will fill the venue in 7 k without no problem. I would be pleasantly surprised if he fills 20k
How many people out of Diaspora do you interact with in a week, a month, a year and either hear or not hear speak about Ferre? Twenty a week? Five thousand a month? A million a year?
