he arrived in kinshasa in 2003 from the kongo central region, and he was taken to werra's house in 2007 and he passed his test in front of werra then he got sent to kakol's house to be prepared to anticipate the potential departures of flamme and mogratana and was part of that group of fabregas deplick and co leaving with kakol and even did the pre-record of kakol's classic fidelité d'amour before the first team guys played it in studio and then a place was up for grabs in ferre's group as christian ran away in europe,and due to the urgent need of a soloist he did not even pass a traditional test and covered straight away from their first concert back home he talked about hardship in our music saying that he will not let one of his children do music in congo because there is a lot of stupid things happening in and around that music and gives example of how when he joined the group most of the group did not like him because they were still upset about the one who left and chikito who was then not even major yet was sending him to buy stuff or things like that then in the long run they got us to him he said he grew up in a wealthy family and he did music only out of passion which is why he knew that once he had handled the hardships he could build his life and his career he said that his role models are maitre ficarre,alain makaba,roga roga,rigo star and franco and played some of their work,then about flamme he said flamme was not his model but undeniably the icon of the post-makaba generation shame he did not get asked about guy though,he was in the best position to talk about his death as guy lived in the same building 2 stairs up i think or something he started music as a rnb dancer,then became a drummer in rumba/sebene and then moved to guitar by pure coincidence as the street group he was in split and there was no guitarist to be on the other side
He talked about various topics he already mentioned several times,his friendship with jb well before music, his arrival in bcbg and so on and got asked 5 names he considers as legends he said papa wemba koffi nioka longo jb werra and he was asked about the new generation of fally ferre and co and said he was proud of them and that the only thing he regretted is that their rivalry goes overboard ,sure the rivalry of his friends jb and werra was crazy aswell but there was a lot of mutual respect behind the scenes once they were done fighting literally to defend their camps and reveals for example that ferre mabiala and co were asking them literally after having fought in front of people on the side how him rio and chai was doing to produce that chorus of th and he'd give them tips, and about jb and werra as their friend he can confirm there was never a deep hate just a little ego of who will resist better after 4X4 and that they were in touch when it mattered for true friends,and he said them the musicians sometimes got caught up by the false feeling that there was deep hate but he started fully understanding it was just a game when he was seeing kakol and seguin eating together after having gone hard on each other's band in the same interviews and he wished the rivalries of the younger brothers could be like that and not look like some genuine hate he got asked why he does not do his own album since he is a prolific writer and jb has allowed people to do their albums,and he said jb himself presses him about it every single year but he just does not feel it he thinks he's more useful as bcbg's artistic core than trying to build solo glory which he already experienced a bit in brazza and about bcbg ex members he says people should not bury them its not everybody who is meant for instant impact,and one day people will get to realise that they can suceed aswell
Robinio performed yesterday at a venue which was broadcasting ferre's second concert before his own,so technically most of the crowd he found there were golois,and they booed him and so on given his years of repeated attacks towards ferre and he had to sing the golois anthem to calm them down i believe deep down robinio would have loved to be pire petit of both his vieux but unfortunately its hardly possible or to achieve it you have to be somebody who has a foot and half outside spotlight like capuccino for example
at 3rd minute responding to criticism of some internet journalist who said him and his friend kakol have spent 30 years behind jb and werra and have benefitted nothing and he says he does not like doing that most of the time but exceptionally he's doing that and if they think its the house of a pure vieux which he is showing to save his face then they can bring out that pire vieux(kakol was also suspected of that while filming himself visiting an house in the building process with linda and the kids) he adds that he's been through too much financial struggle in his childhood (after the death of his parents and family taking all their wealth away) to play with his life at such an old age,and he jokes that he's grown beard again so that people realise how old he is,his oldest children is 27 and 3 of the oldest are done with uni already and that him and ferre had their first kid before being 21 and now they are close to 50,so he is not your unconscious guy who just enjoys success and does nothing in his life and he shares his "secret" which is that he always saves minimum half of what he get then uses the rest for his fun and his needs he also talked about the situation of ferre and heritier saying he regrets that they are beefing both are his close friends and its uncomfortable to see them like that and be at the middle
