It should have been released for JB's 50s birthday 2nd June and now is the sixth, can he please stop making a fun of us fan? Sick of waiting for not getting any music
-
SAD....
At least we have a release date of : 7jouurs de la semaine le 24juin à 17h
-
Why do you keep stressing about it? No one cares anymore just forget about it you're just gonna give yourself a heart attack
-
lol it was obvious they would not release it on that date from the moment it was known that it was not gone to factory yet,it should have been gone to factory in the first week of may to be released on time given how artists like to release at this time of the year
-
Give it a break guys...I don't even know why people are waiting for this lame ass album...it's not like it will take the world by storm

that is what i have been saying unless guys are eagerly waiting for it hehehehe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
There are better albums to be released from more serious artists' JB is a rotten cabbage, how long should we wait for the stupid album anyway,,... We have great gift coming, lets look forward to QQJD and Caligula.
-
voila guys given the way jb operates its a waste of energy to expect him doing agressive marketing and album ASAP,better let him possibly surprise or not
there are enough other musicians to appreciate while he continues his "thing"
and no matter what the day he releases all of us who bashed him day in day out will comment again since he is not a "nobody"

JB Mpiana seems to be congolese music's d'angelo LOL d'angelo had a whole 15 years between albums. he's one of my favorite arists and he was dealing with drug addiction and depression. after a few years i just ignored him then boom he literally without warning or marketing dropped an album winter of 2015 and it was everything the fans wanted from him. be patient. forget about it. go on about life. if he finally drops something of note, celebrate. if he doesnt go one with your life.

Big d'Angelo fan as well. Black Messiah was such a powerful album, very relevant to the times.
Some promotion could've led to a grammy or billboard award nomination though

I have personally left dust to settle on JB, I no longer care about him like I used to. In fact I have realized that had I given him a red card long time ago, I would be richer in Congolese music and history by today. I worshipped him like a small curio God. I ignored Werrason, Wemba, Zaiko, Koffi not realizing until today that these other guys are great and have been producing better music. I have since opened a rhumba pub in Lusaka and I play all kinds of rumba music from all artists. What I have come to realise is that fans of JB are only 1% while most song requests are for other artists. That just shows how JB has fucked up his career. Its a pity really to see such a gem rotting with Kibense and Rio for 100 years.

Secondly, I now conclude that from a personal point of view, JB is not great, he was only lucky that the beef between him and Werrason threw him in the view of Congolese music fans. JB would not be known today if it was not for that rivalry. He also took strength from Afande, Makaba, Titina etc.....the moment he was left by these great guys, his career has been on the downhill. It was evident when I swallowed a bitter pill during Anti-terro CD.

You know even though seeing EMO like that make me question if the 3rd wold war is close, every time I get mad I go on Snap (download it yesterday after a year of absence) to on JB and I see so much energy that all my anger goes away

No No No thats not true....
It's Werrason who profited the most from the JB-Werra rivalery. JB was the person who lost everything. Because he was from day 1, when Mulolo came out the image of Wenge 4x4 and the succes of Feux de l'Amour let him reach another dimension. Guys like Koffi Olomide, Emeneya, Marie Paul, etc. were jealous of him and wanted his head off. So they were waiting for the right moment to do that and that was with the Wenge-split, with almost everybody supporting Werrason. JB was also naïve by saying things that he shouldn't say on tv. I remember that alot of Wenge BCBG-fans went towards Wenge MM, because he denigrated their quarters (Bana Tshangu) and an angry Tabu Ley who asked his collegues and mates to support Werrason, since that JB disrespected him during the negociaties to bring Wenge 4x4 back (before the split). The succes was getting on JB's head and after his arrival in Kinshasa '98 it was diffcult for the press to contact him, because he started to himself like an god "Souverain 1er" and you had then to contact Roger Ngandu and co before meeting him. So it made Werrason getting the press automaticly in his pocket, since it was then easy to find him. JB was also stupid to react on Sankara's and Werrason's provocations, which was boosting Maison Mere more. With the Maison-Mere camp starting with gossip-stories and alot of people starting to hate JB with at a moment also politicians getting involded to block his succes. The 5 years ban in Europe is a good example. Hence why he sung the song Ezau from Anti Terro, who is about Werrason profiting from the split to get sympathy from the peoples and stealing his benedictions and the real story about Wenge's succes. In Accapella from T.H., he sung about Werra & Masela being happy about him during the Wenge 4x4-days and later turning against him with the pain of being hated by everybody.

à partir de 25min
He confirms his return as a member of BCBG but is free to do what he wants as long as he respects the laws of the group
