I’m surprised to see Kila Mbongo animating here and Abilisi dancing.

I've been looking for the complete thing for a while. This show had given me festival vibes, with the way it took place around New Year's Eve, and the way that artists from the same label were playing on the same stage. Did JPS organise the whole thing? Imagine if Sono or Sonima organised such festivals where their respective artists played on the same stage.

It was organised by Obiang Nguema (the son of the president of Equatorial Guinea) who was then one JPS Production’s partners. The festival still exists and is every year during new year. They invited Ferre Gola, Awilo Longomba & General Defao for the last edition.

I remember Joss Diena and Rippason were left behind in Kinshasa during the concert but why? That Jose Senga is one unlucky guy; he danced in Bonjour Monsieur clip, had vocals on Mapendo, appeared in Kin clips of Yo Nani & Signature, but wouldn't add vocals on a Cultura album again until Et Apres.

If I'm not mistaken, Abillisi and Kila Mbongo would leave the group in Europe before recording Trop C'est Trop. Abillisi joined Academia when they were giving concerts in Europe, like Bozi Boziana's son (I forgot his name).

They had an affair with dancers,but since they were favorites wazekwa could not suspend them he just left them behind knowing there would be other concerts
you are right about jose senga,may his soul rest in peace by the way he died during the corona crisis, cultura had quite a lot of singers for a young group so there was always guys left behind

I thought that Abilssi and Kila Mbongo stayed in Europe and rejoined Extra Musica for the concert at Zenith to leave it afterwards again because of payments, since that they didn’t record the videoclip of Abilissi’s song Tu Me Manques and Kila Mbongo not appearing in the scenes they recorded in Brazzaville. That’s why I’m surprised to see them here. Abilissi didn’t join Academia on the same moment like Abel Benz, Abilissi joined months later (I don’t if he joined through Brazzaville or Paris), but his first concert in Europe was the one at LSC with Popolipo, Pitshou Concorde, Tonton Lay and co. Before trying to rejoin Extra again for the Zenith-show.

Ndeko, your theory is closest to the truth. Abillisi appears only in the generique's clip, while absence in the other clips filmed in Europe (Matongi, Sissi L'Impératrice, & Laissez Passer). Abillisi was present the majority of the European tour and performed at Palais des Sports with the group, maybe Roga Roga was blocking him from appearing in clips to slowly unsettle him. The Brazza clips are often filmed last, compromising the majority of the footage on the VHS.

My condolences, I had no idea he passed away! It's been sixteen years, but I still remember his vocals on Tu Me Manques and Pardon.
