7.5/10.

Great rhumbas, but there are few songs that sound the same. Not nearly as bad as Boitre Noire, where it felt like the next song was a repeat of the previous song.

Regarding the generiques - I still haven't listen to one in-full to this day. Very basic sound and they're all uninteresting. I skip them and get straight to the rhumba.

i feel the same not gon lie. my biggest problem with the album is the length of it, like how do you even think making 33 tracks is going to keep people interested

The best album with great classics which our kids kids will listen to, they will use lyrics like we use The Grand Kale, Luambo, Papa Wemba etc....QQJD get a 9/10 as this album is aimed at responsables who will understand the lyrics and arrangement watch the video below see how people who appreciate good music were enjoying themselves on the 19/5/18

10/10 I don't know how people may say that it is not perfect, I mean 33 songs is the right number, since Congolese music have a very short number of songs.

Lots of respect for the Lofombo guitar, Calluggi's collabo and some lyrics.

Right now I will wait for the end of the year because the only real competition came from Manda Chante, Karmapa, and now Blaise Bula.
Sad to say that Congolese artist are not releasing Congolese music anymore like before.

Good taste, "Les Trois As" of albums for me over the past 2 years are Manda's "Je Suis", Kapmapa's "Caligula", & Blasie's "Rendekita". Also, Gloria Tukhadio's recent "Identité protégée".These albums have given me hope for great music from this genre and are a cut above the rest.

Not saying QQJD is bad; but he could've cut the fat by trimming it to 2 Volume of the best songs, as well as mixing the generiques properly in Europe.

The rest of the releases over the past 2-3 years have been either alright, lacking something, too long, or just terrible.
