Will it not create problems for Kisindjora to come to Europe in the future, for the way Tarou Buange exposed her. In this video Tarou Buange explains how he started to sell drugs in Kinshasa. Also how people from Europe introduced him into selling cocoaine and heroine. He also talks about his clients and how Manicke got even more addicted than Babia, etc.
I don't remember which musicians it was exactly, but the person said that before working on this project, Debaba had made several statements in the press saying that if the project flopped, he would stop with music. At the same time, he was being linked to a return to Viva la Musica in Europe. Shortly after it, Debaba became a born-again Christian, starting preaching and doing gospel-music.
Talking about this project. Does anyone know the name of this album? I saw these two clips on two or three different compilation-videos, but I never knew from which album they came. I've been looking it more than 20 years. Was it an album that was only released in Zaïre, like some of Defao’s rare cassettes? Or was it never officialy released ?
Last weekend, I was watching with friends different shows of JB Mpiana from the 2001-02 period and we were discussing if JB Mpiana’s concert at Elysée Montmartre after Bercy was orginally a Plan B in the case Bercy would get cancelled
A few months before JB Mpiana’s show at Bercy, there were rumors that the concert would get cancelled because of the deposit not being paid, but nothing happened and the show was maintained. After that the story of 9/11 came and rumors about musicians not getting visas. Despite all those problems, JB Mpiana still managed to perform at Bercy
The thing that brought me to the question about Elysee Montmartre being a plan B, was that at the time, there were no Congolese artists that performing following week after doing a Zénith de Paris or Bercy. They would usually wait one or two months before doing a second show in Europe, mostly starting with Brussels or Geneva.While JB Mpiana did immediately another show after and it took place in Paris, not another European city.
Talking about the Elysee Montmartre-show, it was among the last shows of Titina Al Capone within Wenge BCBG. They performed the following week at LA Madeleine in Brussels and went to Canada without him. According Titina, they travelled to Canada without informing him. While people of BCBG's camp claim that Titina decided to stay in Europe. Wenge BCBG on their side, were supposed to perform in Switzerland after the Canadian tour, but something went wrong during the stopover, which resulted in them being arrested and deported to Kinshasa
One month ago, Koffi made an intervuew with Migue Niema, saying that people of AccorHotels Arena called him to perform at their hall and that there would be soon announcement. But until this day we hadn't seen anything what happened ? Was it in realiy a concertpromoter trying to plan an event for him at Bercy, but the admin refusing ? Or Koffi changing his mind and wanting to wait for QL's album to be released ?
