I thought that he never returned since 2003. When Congolese bandleaders return to their province or birthplace its alwaysa huge event, making always alot noise in the media. But that of JB Mpiana hadn't created alot buzz. Reading the description of the first video, it's also mentioned that he went there in 2016. I noticed that JB Mpiana had more performed more in Mbuji Mayi and Tshikapa then Kananga in his music-career. In the second video I see JB Mpiana talking in Lingala, does JB not know how to talk in Tshiluba or his Tshiluba not strong enough, because of being growing up in Kinshasa?
