Yango okomona makambo ya kala mais okoki kozwela yango makofi ya sika. Vieux Felix alingi abeta Mopao pona makambo ya kala. Hahaha

 Minute 24 where he talks about what Papy Mboma said about how his then boss Shabani Record wanted him to stop Wazekwa's programme in order to accommodate Koffi's but Papy refused and ended up losing his job with Congoweb.

He started talking about how presenter papy mboma revealed that he got fired by his former tv channel because he refused to broadcast a koffi olomide spot during his interview fully destined to wazekwa,and wazekwa said he was really touched by the risk papy took in doing that and papy had never told him despite them doing several interviews in the new channel he works at
he adds that papy did the right thing because it could have  ended really bad,it was few times after the conflict between him and koffi reached its absolute peak and the whole cultura group got beaten,assaulted,spat on by gangsters sent supposedly by koffi,because they were performing in matonge,not too far from the quartier latin rehearsal hall
and few times after guys from  matete(wazekwa's area)went for revenge against those gangsters and it happened that quartier latin's bodyguard champion kiwaka found himself among them and got beaten too
he is happy that it came from papy himself because he received a lot of hate during his career from koffi fans for being according  to them  somebody who hangs on to koffi to get attention,and that situation shows the opposite
and all rivalry aside it shows that koffi considers him way more than his fans imagine,because koffi would not insist to broadcast his spot only right in the middle of interview of a worthless artist,not at the introduction of  the show  destined to news of various artists
he admits he is shocked by that news and jokes about why he keep training martial arts because he has to be ready always in case people mess with him
and he explains that however he does not have any current problem with koffi,they will surely never be as close as once but they have reached peace and mutual respect and today's context he'd not be bothered at all if koffi's spot was shown in his interview,even in the past moments he'd have understood but the thing is that people around him would already be upset and seeing it as a planned humiliation and already react and its too late when 99 per cent of your staff is already very angry and ready to react
then he talks about mentality of some congolese people and jokes about some people he gave shoutout to on songs who call to complain that their name comes after a certain person and reminds them  that the most important is that they received shoutout,and he tells ado you see us congolese fallout over so petty stuff that even among my friends there is competition about shoutout order
he talked about his generique ki lelo and said that he wanted to pay tribute to legends of the genre and show that there is not only hate and conflicts in their corporation,and about why only jb werra zaiko he said simply because he could not release the full version of almost 40 minutes people would find it way too long
and he added that he has really fond memories of jb when his dad passed he came to support then said that he was leaving for a private concert and that he'd come back but he was thinking that jb said it just like that so he was very surprised when he heard that after he went to sleep as his dad had to be buried in his village jb came to perform for 4 hours after having already performed 3 hours at his private concert
he also added that it happen that jb loaned him big money for something or that they gave each other advice on private or professional issues,so he wanted to honour guys like him  who he gets along so well with outside musi
he said that there was already another generique but he prefered to release this one before as he things the future one is the best of the whole article 23 project
he was asked about relationship with family of former president kabila and says indeed he's friends with most of them,but it has nothing to do either with politics
in fact,when joseph kabila had to get married musicians were invited to perform but all of them leaders had conditions about the money they expected to be paid,which is typically the thing politicians hate when musicians or comedians openly appear too greedy,and he was the last to be asked and he said "forget about paycheck for now,just give us a minimum so that we can pay decent smokings for musicians to wear",and they loved the fact for once one artist did not seem obsessed by the idea of chewing big money from them
so after that they got in touch with him a lot to ask for his ideas and advice,people  said he was janet kabila's husband but its false its just that he'd visit her or zoe or gracia because he was invited to  eat and discuss of their common passions for example
and he also said one of his typical proverbs which he used in generique ki lelo,"if you want to steal money,also steal the explication you'll give when caught" and he says its a way of warning politicians and  people in companies about the way they steal big money which they cant explain why when caught,and also urged them to have more humanism,it makes no sense to have your employees unpaid then you the boss you are rocking  at that moment a new car and ado tried to tease him about whether he applies himself  what he said and he said of course and thats why he's one ofthe rare leaders who never shows off with cars
he prefers sharing with his musicians,still about  politicians and businessmen he openly says that it happened that  he received serious money and deep down he knew that this person could not give that much just from his salary so he clearly stole,but however he tries his best in twisting it into something morally positive by using that money into paying rents for his musicians,instruments or his expensive deal with promedis hospital all across kinshasa so that every cultura musician and their families are treated for free
he is asked about gesac complaining aabout not receiving money he deserved,and he says you know if somebody does not want to acknowledge what you did for him he'll find anything to say and that if he was against helping gesac he'd never had left him and joss in europe to sort out papers which would have helped them until today if they got it
he admits that end of sponsorship has limited his ability to help out musicians,because primus was paying concert or not whatever you agreed you'd receive,so with the lack of concerts in europe too its even more difficult
but he makes sure to still ensure a certain minimum to his band members,even if the system of monthy salary is not possible with the lack of income,he tries even from his own pocket to try to keep them happy because for him cultura is a family
