Will he bring Quartier Latin of Kinshasa, former Quartier Latin musicians or mix both teams ? With the situation now in Kinshasa, I am sure that many will stay in Canada if Koffi decides to bring the Kinshasa team

It strange the Koffi himself didn’t post anything on his social media yet. He may not show up or maybe he will repeat that Abidjan incident

Oh my, what's going on in Kinshasa? Hopefully Koffi will pay them well leading up the tour in USA and Canada to ensure their return to Congo.

He's going to have problems securing VISA to the USA for future concerts, if his musicians run away. President Biden is under a lot of pressure to enforce immigration laws with the crisis at the border between Texas and Mexico.

The amount Koffi pays his musicians isn’t enough anymore. 20 years ago, but back in those days the economic situation was different compared to these years.Life is now so hard in Kinshasa. It was already hard,  but now it’s worser compared to 5 years go. The prices for daily life are to high and keep rising everyday. Also due to the huge employment, insecurity become stronger. Kuluna became to strong, people getting kidnapped by “fake taxi” drivers for money, some even getting killed and organs being sold to Chinese, Pakisanti , Indian and Sri Lanka people, etc. Girls getting recruited to make pornvideos, guys making gay-porn videos for quickly money. Those who have some money feel the pressure from family become stronger to help and the amount of shegues and youngsters begging for money keeps growing. Now you can’t go normal to a bar peacefully without groups of youngsters praising you, just to get money.

Also, what happened in Abidjan? That is bad those things are happening in Kinshasa. What if he brings Quartier Latin Fashion instead?

Just after the release of 13eme Apotre Koffi went to Ivory Coast. But he wasn’t happy that the concert promoter didn’t respect the contract by using drones and cameras. So after 2 songs he started singing Selfie and interrupted the song in the middle by leaving the hall and going back to his hotel with Cindy. The musicians and dancers were left behind and the public started to lynch them. There used to be a video of the dancers begging the public stop harassing them and they couldn’t do anything for them, but it got removed.

By the way it’s from that moment the Ivory Coast started to boycot him, often sabotaging his shows there, the press if there often denigrating him, etc. While before used to be their favorite foreign artist since the mid-90s

That's really sad. Why the situation keep getting worse? What is happening that makes this situation go worse then before? With that said would you recommend for a guy like me a Europe born guy but of Comgolese descent to make a trip to Kin or any Congolese city cause I would like two go with two of my white Italian friends and make videos and pictures but I am kinda scared after you told me this. Also the fact that politicians don't do anything to stop this is just shameful, too busy stealing money to give to musicians instead of caring for the country, that's why The Combatant phenomenon is too strong. I get that they are musician and they need to live but since Mobitu's times or even earlier they have been complicit in the empovireshing and corruption of our country.

Classical Koffi, being a spoiled brat thinking he won't face consequences I am not for cancel culture but tbh Ivoirians did only well to boycott him I don't condone violence against the musicians who stayed but Koffi really doesn't have respect for anyone. With that said how much of a good pay it would be for musicians to stay with Koffi? 300 dollars instead of 100?
