As some people know already, Pompom Miyake was a brief member of Quartier Latin. Pompom gives an interesting story about Koffi Olomide and Papa Wemba. This comes from Pompom himself:
One day, in Kinshasa (I assume), Koffi Olomide and Papa Wemba were talking while Pompom was rehearsing with Asta Paola, Bendoson and Reddy Amisi. They happen to pass Koffi and Papa and then Pompom returned while Bendo was going forward. Pompom wanted to salute Koffi and Wemba but could not because Koffi was speaking to Wemba's ear while revealing that Pompom had sung briefly in Quartier Latin. Two weeks later, Papa Wemba went to Kenya with Reddy, Bendo, Asta and himself Pompom. Papa Wemba went to ask Pompom if he was a singer in Quartier Latin which he said yes but only briefly. Papa Wemba was smiling. Pompom understood that Koffi Olomide told Papa Wemba about his time in Quartier Latin.
It looks to me that Koffi Olomide and Papa Wemba may have also performed together in Kenya. Don't forget, Koffi did some clips in Kenya.
