It was produced by Lusafrica/Sony BMG. The label expected alot of this album, after that they saw how he filled Zenith de Paris & Olympia in 6 months. They could have bring Emeneya on another dimension. I remember Koffi mocking Emeneya about the flop of that album.

Did not this album come in 2002? It looks like 2002 may have not been a good year releasing music.

Yes. Another reason that the album flopped is that the most members prefered to stay in Europe, instead of returning to Kinshasa. With alot of them asking for a car as exchange to return in Kinshasa. While Lusafrica already sended a team to record videoclips. With problems starting between the musiclabel and Emeneya and him ending up paying thousands euros to his label for not respecting the contract and a Kassav-singer (I forget the name) taking advantage of that situation.
