One of our fellow members will need to brace themselves, as they may go into ecstasy reading this
Direct Translation-
"Big thanks to my brother Ferre Gola Le Padre for having honored "Papa Wemba" (a real legend of Africa and of Congolese music). You are the new king of Congolese music brother, I appreciate your hard labor and vocal force, May almighty god continue to bless, guide and guard you presently and always brother. - J.Martin "
Usually a générique with a rhythm section this long would piss me off, but it works here as the point was to present all 25 (jk ) of his atalakous and have them exercise vocally. Also present the addition of le meilleur drummer du moment, Île de Cambodge.
Audio:
Kabuya killed it
This and Libre Parcours 2 are my favorite Fally génériques
LE PADRE WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME REPLAY AFTER REPLAY EVEN THE WIFE SAYS I WILL NOT SLEEP TONIGHT DAMN THIS VIDEO HAS JUST BOUGHT YOU MORE FANS AND PROMOTED THIS SONG AND ALBUM FANTASTIC
papa eza nini? boni boye ko, zala na maîtrise
Imagine the day ndeko, Pole Position goes back stage to meet Ferre
Ah, thanks. One of my favorite albums ever. Released at the wrong time like all the other young solo acts (Montana, Alpatshino, Suzuki, etc.), unfortunately.
An absolute all star studio backing; an artist couldn't have asked for better
lol, will watch interview for entertainment purposes. He's fully embraced that bitter & dark old man personna now, especially with that villain voice of his
@manzambi I like Naza, and I think he's really promising, but he needs to loose some (a lot) of weight for the sake of his health. He has trouble performing on stage for long, even has trouble sitting in chairs for interviews
He's like how Notorious BIG (RIP) was, clinically defined as morbidly obese in his early 20's. If I weren't for him getting shot, something cardiovascular would've taken him out
It's been eerie quiet lately as if all the big artists are on sabbatical until sometime in 2018.
Not much recent developments from Koffi/QL, Wazekwa, BCBG (yeah, I know), Zaiko, Karmapa, Roga Roga & Extra, and more.
Ferre & Werrason already blessed us with great new albums.
Or even some of the Europe artists - although they are not major. - Alain Mpela has a complete album, but seems to have lost confidence. - Blaise Bula's still taking his sweet time working on his album - Sam Tshintu? - Reddy Amisi has recorded many new songs over past few years. And there's that duo project with Werrason coming whenever
I agree Pole Position 100%, as proven by all the clips kindly provided. What Fally has done on the International (& local scene I'd argue) only scratches the surface of what Papa Wemba (RIP) accomplished in his career..
And he also accomplished this without social media or the conception of "viral" online video. Both aspects are critical to Fally
