in short he says that his album has 2 generiques 16 rumbas but there is also a generique and rumba which was not finished in time which will be released like two weeks after albumhe disappeared from media because he wanted to focus on himself and on his music and try to see if he would not be able to survive without a strong mediatic presence and he can see with the feedback from his album release that people were waiting for him and he promises they wont be disappointed because his songs are of a strong level he worked with the best songwriters and he believes his album will succeedhe does not have a rival because he is not in the logic like some artists that the others have to be weakened so that their superiority is highlighted but he's rather one to like to be strong among other strong he was asked about fally's arenas and ferre's double arena and said hats off to them and when asked about fabregas' casino de paris he could not help but laugh then indirectly said later that papy just talked about big things but managed to insert stuff of little boys into the discussion of big men and he said that he will perform in france this year he has dates set already but people will know after album is out and that he will like he said perform in martyrs a second time aswell which he could not do last year because of the major accident his group suffered in equatorial guinea taking a good time for everybody to recover and thats the reason why he sang the gospel song because it was a miracle that none of the 11 guys who were in the little bus that rolled over 4 times died,which people would have interpreted as his sacrifice for his album so he wanted to thank God with that song

Even myself, I'm surprised and happy nobody died. Good lord, I hate the imbalance of the albums with the rhumba/sebene ratio. First of all, too many songs and barely three or four songs are memorable
its really a weird mix,i know a donor who gave to two big names 60K each for a song and he was a fan of viva wenge so even if there is not an atalaku shining at least upbeat tempo throughout the song and the defence playing sebene at the end,both artists said hell no such a donor deserves one of the top3 rumbas of the album so they decided on their own to switch and the donor was upset but just let it go as the song still became viralso it works in both ways unfortunatelyeven writers sometimes they bring sebene song which are transformed by force into rumbas only roga roga did the opposite to do 12 on his group since sebene songs became unpopular to many,he forced them to transform their rumbas into sebenes so that they cant shine in full lead mode lol
i believe also the reason why there is still so little sebene songs is the leaders microphone greadiness,sebene songs offer the possibility to their musicians to have even 2 vocals or 3 per song each,one in the slow opening start,one in the transition,one in the pre-heating part before sebene kicks or even the singer doing some animation like fally bouro alain mpela for example were doingso they protect at all costs their 30 full leads and the odd 3 4 5 songs max where some of their singers are allowed to get their 35 second of spaceand sebene songs requires variety,you'll bore the hell out of people if you sing 10 full leads of sebene songs alone while people can tolerate you on 20 plus rumba even if they barely like 7 songs out of itferre and fally especially piss me off with not contributing to bring back the balance,you have 2 hours of vocals plus 11 or something combined solo albums is not it more than enough to let the others breathe a bit more
I wish Congolese would balance albums like they did in the past. How can one dance to rumbas in a club?
