I have long liked Suzuki. I have seen him in many bands, Wenge, Mpiana & BCBG, Maison Merre & Werrason and of all Koffi Olomide and Quartier Latin. It seems he is able to flow in and out of bands with no issue.

Archos, can you shed some light on Zusuki, his career, marriage and where he is at right now. Any children of his, wife, etc. Anyone can pitch in for that matter. He complimented Koffi alot on Koffi's earlier recordings. How well of is he financially?

 

suzuki was in the group of sam tshintu called flash musica,almost the whole group went into quartier latin later on(sam,suzuki,lebou kabuya,willy bula, rocky blanchard,sunda bass to name a few) the after quartier latin went for a short time in bcbg,jb wanted him to be the replacement of werrason but suzuki had his sight set on a personal album and career and most importantly about staying in europe
he is in france now and has been for the last 5 or 6 years,as far as i know he has 4 kids one of them is stephane who he mentions in some songs
he has his own group in kinshasa,but due to family life spends much more time in europe than congo,especially as he could soon claim french nationality thanks to his kids if he continues staying regularly in france
about his finances,he is definitely nowhere near the generation of fally ferre and co let alone the top 6 of koffi,jb,werra,fally,ferre,wazekwa but he lives well,i sometimes meet him doing shopping with his kids and stuff like that

How is he surviving in Europe? Is he washing horse stables or what?

Whoa! Didier Masela, the co-founder of Wenge is a lawyer? I am impressed.

Archos, thank you for the very interesting update. About how old is Suzuki now?

40 next year

Wow,so his silence has been because of studies!! Excellent news!!!

Yes after struggling to establish his own group,he went back to university in kinshasa and china,he already had a licence before wenge became a big group so he had 5 years left which he brilliantly did from 2008 to last year
but he will still  have a foot in music,he promised  his friends jb,werra,blaise,adoplphe than whenever they will want him to participate in  their solo album he will be ok(already booked for chemin de fer and had participated already to blaise's rendekita)
 i am so happy he bouced back the guy was mocked in congolese press a lot from 2004 to 2008 that he is in such ppor life condition that it would be charity from jb and werra to hire him so he can survive and stuff like that
