Where is Diego Music now?
Here he says that he sold 50 thousand CDs of Mayi Ya Sika if I am not mistaken what I wanted to ask is are those examplaire money going to him? And if not what percentage he took? Is he still in business with Werra? Or he left music? Does he and Werra still have good relationships?

Koffi was furious at that him, when he heard that he was negotiating with Werrason about producing Sattelite+2, while had still to pay Koffi the rest of the money of Abacadabra. Koffi decided to go to his hotel room at Grand Hotel and then punched him in the face. Diego sued him after that.

Diego is still there, he has still his shop in Chateau Rouge, but he doesn't produce music and theatre anymore since 5/6 years, because everything is youtube and the production is nowadays mostly done by the artists themselves.

It was Techno Malewa volume 1 that sold more than 50.000 copies, not Mayi ya Sika. Mayi ya Sika was produced by Duo d'Enfer of the late Adrien Mukiadi and his brother Papy Mukiadi, who ended up by being in conflict with Werrason. The money of Malewa is going to him, because he's the excuctive producer. I don't know their contract, but the way Verckys explained it in one video, the recordlabel always get 50% and the rest going to the artist, but the recordlabel can also earn more money if the artist signed a slave contract. For example most artists who signed with Verckys weren't getting royalties of their songs, because they sold are they gave VEVE 100% of the rights in exchange of free instruments. Emeneya used to regret about it, because he couldn't benefit of his songs he released from (1982 until 1986), the same for Bozi, Evoloko and Nyboma.
