Title: FLASH BACK ON KOFFI OLOMIDE'S ALBUMS
Post by: PCGY KASTELLO on July 14, 2017, 20:14

V12, Loi and Ultimatum arguably my all time top 3 albums of Koffi. Just listen to those mellow Choruses from Sam shintu, Suzuki, Abalambwa, and the late Babia. Not even our own Werra's dream team would challenge them were sebene and Rumba chorus is concerned. They were the A Listers in that department.  What is your take on this Y'all?

Fantastic era especially V12, this reminds me of a joke of a late cousin who used  to say if you dated a girl and made her listen or  you tried to sing songs from that album and still did not succeeded then she surely hated you  :D :D :D

Koffi from 1992-2006 was untouchable everything he released was fantastic it started slowing down with monde arabe, longitima made up for it but danger de mort sucked the sound was incredible but it was overhyped

Ultimatum, Effrakata and Monde Arabe(most will disagree) make the top cream with honourable mention to Maggie and V12. Sadly his tune changed starting with BEK, Abracadabra, 13eme and Nyataquance. For the last 4 albums put together the only songs I enjoy are Ikia, BB Gout, Soupou, Double Mbonda, La Foudre, Symposium. As for Nyataquance I have tried to get even one song to identify with and everytime I come up empty!!!

Etage ya suka, ultimatum,  droit de veto , force de frappe and danger de mort are not really koff album, so to me they really dont count , they are quartier latin album .to me  Noblesse oblige,V12, loi and effrakata are the best when it comes to originality nd artistic work, arrangements , text and so on .
However we also have  haut de game  et  les prisonnier dorment that i personally consider as hors series...
Just like reddys albums in viva , they were all hors series.

The team he had by then was a marvel to listen to. You can only compare that team to Werra's dream team choreographic wise

Suzuki,Willy Bula,Babia,Eric Tutsi,Sam Tshintu,Modogo Abarambwa = the best chorus Quartier Latin ever had. Point.

amennnn guys this was a very very very strong chorus, i remember an interview of sam suzuki and babia  before babia went to angola they were so complementary you'd think they never stopped working together
