I liked the concept and they used all the major languages that are spoken in Africa. Wazekwa always always have to have multiple slow rhythm parts in his generiques which kind of ruined it for me.

I really like the concept; it'll have Pan-African appeal if the promotion is good

Wazekwa génériques are an acquired taste; I'm a big fan of these parts in his génériques because there's always a strong bass line.

I wonder if Wazekwa consulted writer Alain Mabanckou, because his writings and accompanying  albums are about spreading Pan-Africanism in modern Africa through mediums like music

the rythm parts are the trademark of the style himself wazekwa(who sometimes plays those rythm parts himself) and hono kapanga built
i remember there was a generique called ko debout which was done just before he fired bercy which was straight sebene during the 4 5 minutes he did not release it but released penalty with  rhythm parts instead
