When Bouro Mpela, Alain Mpela & Jordan Kusa claimed to be the first Congolese and African artists to perform in Las Vegas. They forgot that Soukous Stars already went before them. I can't find part 2, where Alain Mpela bragged alot about it. They gave the impression that they were about to perform in a big hall.

lol, an office kiekiekie. I remember Garry Iwele interviewing Patience who came in LA, I think and Garry mocking her, saying that they came in 2003 performing in big halls of US and them making huge mpiakas. What made Koffi's tour in the US not being succesfull like those of Soukous Stars ? and how were General Defao, Wenge 4x4, Maison Mere and BCBG's tours in the US ?
