I think that this means that concerts in Europe will be very back soon. I'm seeing him already performing at Bercy or will he prefer to fulfill his new dream to perform at Stade de France ?

And everyone had judged him guilty on this blog. Maybe he did all those nasty things but there is a reason courts of justice exist. And now they have deemed him free so his haters are welcome to invent the next round of condemnation...

Wow, this guy is the luckiest person on earth

Didn't know for today that he was guilty of tax fraud in 2006; kind of explains why he was more Kin-based then before the allegations

it just hope it wont quickly turn into rubbing it on the alleged haters face or the alleged haters talking much about it,otherwise it could lead to months of polemic again especially given how our youtube guys vincent franck and co love fuelling things like that for views

The big question is now; is he returning to France???

Was wondering why he posted a clip of Victoire with the "deuces" emoji. How did the court find him innoncent? Not enough evidence or witnesses coming forward?

They're happy about the potential of Koffi performing Europe but didn't Koffi himself have trouble with combattants in the UK years ago even when concerts was still going on.

He’ll do a « concert of the century » only if he performs songs of 91-2008. I wont pay 1€ to hear selfie, symposium, papa n’a pas d’apareil & his future afro beats songs.

Man, imagine dodging justice for 10 years only to get what equates to a slap on the wrist... I need his lawyer. That being said, mixed emotions.. he’s technically guilty of statutory rape of a 15 year old

(Being cynical) In that case, best thing would have no visas approved for his current Kin, so he can recruit QL legends in Europe to be his band.

With that weak current QL team? Naaaa they can stay in Kin only bring a few like my guy Asso and one or two people other then that he can bring back the Europe based QL guys it would be a win win

I dont think the current QL is thaaat weak. It has some vocally solid guys like Lindalada, Mayase, JR33(Not the fat one but the one who sings Fally parts), of course Omba, Fabrice Mayela and DVD. The reason they are not visible is because Cindy sings in 50 per cent of his current songs and Koffi mumbles in the other 50 percent so no space for the other vocalists

I also think the same. We rarely had the chance to see what they worth. I think koffi is a bit selfish, why he would drop his album « legend » dispite ql’s album wich he benn teasing since 2016?
Well, if he go to europe I hope he will wall phillipe guez back & get some dope arrangements for his albums

BTW this interview is from which year? with Ado were he said he was no longer even interested to go to countries like France because of the likelihood of Marie Le Pen's party Front Nationale winning elections saying that he would rather visit new places like Cuba? Lol

The old man is relaxed not acquitted .. I still feel like something fishy is beyond that decision. To me it looks just like a way to get to come to europe then get arrested . he just needs to be careful when going there

You have a bit of a point but still if you compare this current team to the past teams they don't have a leg to stand on. If you held a gun to my head and told me to name 10 QL musicians lol just tell my family I love them  ;D ;D

I mean just look at this performance they had the chance to impress but this was painful to watch like Matebu says they look and sound like a cover band

That's true he was just got a suspended sentence, (something that I've never heard of) not acquitted in the court or have charges dropped.

Haha then why hasn't he gone to Cuba yet? And he if he goes to France this interview will be void.

koffi received the same sentence than wazekwa back in the years for ngulu's,except that the fine was bigger(60k for wazekwa,5K for koffi)

Suspended Sentence is normally used for less serious cases, or where the judge deems the offender as someone who doesn't pose much of a danger to the public. So instead of sending the offender to prison you give them conditional freedom. Sometimes it's even part of a plea bargain by the defense lawyers for their client to get off with a lighter sentence while admitting being guilty for lesser charges. Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo and Jose Mourinho have all walked away with suspended sentence with fines as part of the guilty plea bargain for Tax Evasion in Spain.

The affirmative response here save for two or three members is evidence of disappointment why Koffi was not jailed. Well, I keep asking myself whether we are true followers of this genre, if we only allow deep hate to the players. I do not love all the musicians from Congo but I don't think I would hate them to the extent of wishing them prison term.

Secondly, We are as confused as the musicians themselves!! I see guys calling on Koffi to recall former QL members for concert but these are the same guys who have been on JB's case for keeping old musicians in his band.

To me Koffi does not need former band members to stage a good show. QL has talent in it currently and what Koffi needs to do is to give these musicians freewill to showcase their talent and to allow them to market themselves.

Otherwise, congratulations to Wakapenga for the acquittal.

@Ken Bilele, welcome back. I always wonder why Koffi invites so much bile on this blog. Granted, he may be a horrible human being but we are all guilty of our own demons and this is a musical blog not a moral platform where we police individuals behaviours. Rape is a sin, lying is also a sin and all sins are equal before God so while we condemn Koffi for rape(in case we have hard evidence not assumptions and insinuations) let us pray to God to deliver us from our own sins.

Kenya is currently coming to terms with a case in which an innocent man has been in jail for the last ten years for charges that were framed by the wife so that the wife could sell his property. The woman directed the daughter to report the father to police for having raped her. Ten years down the line the daughter has shocked the nation by coming out to confess that the father did not rape her. So for those that are quick in judging let us be considerate.
