So yesterday I was speaking to a really close friend and admittedly he’s a combattant and was one of those very radical ones till about last year. We were speaking about Fally’s concert at Bercy and how it was all decent show and to my surprise he said he literally hopes Fally releases the audio and footage of the show. I turned around to him saying “whaaaat?”
And I asked him wasn’t he against the return of concerts, and he said No not anymore because it solves nothing and also most of those that are against the return of concerts don’t really care about Congo and haven’t even been in 10/20 years
and they just don’t want it to return due to personal issues with the musicians themselves, and the same people that are against the return of music are the same to pay for Mabanga in songs.
He also said it’s unfair because the older generation of combattants had their time to go and enjoy concerts in Europe and now the new generation have to suffer because they don’t get to see their favourite artists live and he gave for example Fally’s concert at Bercy there were a lot of young people in attendance so it shows that it’s time for the new generation.
He admitted the whole ban and threats were/are very ridiculous because the combattants that were celebrating making the news after setting fire outside the station in Paris thinking that the problems in Congo would be noticed and solved whereas they weren’t concentrating on the problems back home but just made us congolese look like terrorists.
He also told me that there are actually a lot of people that are up for the return of music but they get threatened and are forced to block whilst him he’s openly said he’s up for the return and no ones tried anything on him.
Our music is down because of the ban and the same people that are moaning about the lack of good music these days are the same ones blocking a group to Europe and the combattants need to find another tactic because it’s clearly not working when in fact Congo is getting worse by the minute since he went last year.
What made him change his mind on the whole thing was the fact that he realised nothing was changing and one time his nieces were dancing to Fally and Innoss’B and one of them turned around to him and said she wishes she could see Fally live one day and the way she said it it saddened him.
He also gave a few jabs to Jb saying if Jb ever comes and brings with him Kibens, Rio, JDL and Seguin he’ll personally block the concert since he can’t stand those guys :D ;D
So thoughts?

You know, your friend is right on the money. These zobattants are no longer blocking concerts because of the regime back home, they're just blocking for the fun of it, because of some petty BS with the musicians, because they're salty their own careers are at a dead end. That's why they throw their toys out of the pram and act up like spoiled kids whenever a Kin-based artist comes to Europe for a show. Almost like they don't have side jobs. And I really like the whole 'OK boomer' mentality he had here lol.
Oh yeah, I'll help him block any JB concert that involves the old farts lol.

Everybody knows these combattants used to follow musicians back then I saw pictures of Koffi with combattants that were against concerts, when he came back to Europe last year.
Did Odon Mbo had personal issues with musicians because to be really serious about the situation in Congo ?
