Now people are blaming Blaise Bula for Reagans problems, thanks to the succes of Ponderation 8. The kid is not there in the head, he lost it. That what happens when the parents are only looking for 'mbongo ya kosomba parcelle". Its a bit distusting. I wish his parents would protect him as Bebe Tchanda's family did.
I think that JB's Wenge is the best band in Congo in terms of job security and respect. MPIANA is very loyal, why blame for that quality? I think that his musicians are the happiest in all Congolese bands. Look at Koffi; he fires anybody depending on his mood and Cindy also manipulates him to get rid of musicians. JB is very loyal and deeply respects everyvody working for him, he values them. Yes there are Roger Ngandu and that crazy drummer. They are weird and causing departures but if you can honestly talk to those who left, they give the fault to their fellow bandmates, it is rarely Mukulu's fault.Call me crazy but I think the way JB leads his band is remarkable, he has value and principles. He even lets his musicians record music videos without him appearing in them....who else in Congo does that?? Nobody else. Some may say he doesnt produce as much as he should, YES but patience and his next project should amaze us. I rather have one from JB every 5 years than 2 songs from Koffi (Central) every month.
I still remember when Laureats 2000 came out by JB; it made headlines; This is a quote about it:
· Il faut aussi rendre hommage au chanteur JB Mpiana. Dans ce titre intitulé Lauréats 2000, il réussit à placer 200 dédicaces en 9 minutes et 13 secondes. C'est un record.
Anybody knows why he didnt have a vocale in Bord Ezanga Kombo? He just did the chorus...it was saturated with Cindy's voice. And Cindy was so direspectful towards Suzuki
To me thats one of WMM worst albums because of Mabanga, it felt like a get rich quick scheme of ya Ngiama.Tooooooo many names !!!!! It is refreshing indeed to have zero mabanga.
His wife Sidegie Mampata preceded him...and I think thats enough in that family.... he will not become the next Carlyto or Debaba... look at Montana Sommets des Sommets; worse decision of his career.
Afande was offered 50K USD to go back as le Chef du Gouvernement BCBG, but he declined and laughed at JBs face. He thought that Generation A would stand as a powerhouse but they disbanded as soon as their leader went to Europe thanks to Koffi and others. Mortel Combat is an amazing album but their promotion sucked, and having Bourro as an ally, I dont know if the guy can stick around for that long. Afande's chances are gone, heck he should hit 50 in the next 2 to 3 years. I believe that he should look into other business ventures and be called once every blue moon for featurings.
Kibuisa is Werra's only masterpiece. The arrangement was dope, the vocals and the musicians who participated. The sound is very clear and it looks like Werra invested a lot in the album (energy, professionalism). Thats just my opinion.
Hello name's Ngoy...been following you for the last 12 years or so...its the only reliable place I get music news. Thanks you all for your contributions. I've lived in Canada but now am in the USA.
I love any Congolese artist that can actually surprise me with talent and or compositions. I hate polemique!
