Zaparo and Sonor dominated the interview without acapella from the group, aside from teasing the new animation. Also, look at Dido Senga's body language - the man barely speaks and lacks the usual charisma in recent interviews. Do you guys think he's the next to leave? I hope not, but it seems like the group needs defined leadership; this dual system of Sonor and Rama is too weak to maintain discipline long-term.

Could you imagine what Quartier Latin, Wenge Musica, or Nouvelle Ecriture could have been if they had this level of freedom with their musicians? You would see a line-up change with each album because three or more would run away each time they go to Europe. I'm not advocating the abuse that Madilu put his musicians through but there has to be limits.

i think they came mainly to promote their generique which is out tomorrow,and to counter roga roga's attacks so the two most targetted sonor and zaparo did most of the talk,dido was actually rumoured to have left because he was not on the single cover so he did interviews to adress it in all the days before thats probably why he was laid back
but you are right about the "freedom",the thing is that the one who wanted to be the leader levyson would have been a dictator like roga
maybe if espe stayed in the group he created instead of going back to zangul because of money and reunion of his parents with roga's there would be that more natural leadership

I think it is more about money than leadership. Can you imagine them leaving if they earn the amount they want? I don't think. Sonor and Rama just need to keep the band in good financial standing and things will keep going. Especially if there is vision and opportunities lying ahead.

Hopefully, Espe's conditions in Zangul has improved since he decided to remain loyal to Roga. If there's anyone that Roga could have a soft spot for it's definitely his childhood friend.

Sonor Digital should have a reservist to give him partitions or share songs like Wenge does because Eboka and Eloko have similar guitar solos. Unlike Roga or Durrel Loemba, Sonor doesn't have a "classic" catalog of sebene...maybe his partitions from 242 and Mopepe Ya Sika. Do you know what I mean? Like how Kibusia and Sous Sol are prototypical solos from Flamme Kapaya or Felly Tyson with Effrakata and Force de Frappe.

unfortunately it seems not,unless it has changed now he had remained in europe while roga went back to honour some contracts in africa and i heard from a lot of friends that he was in barbershops and so on asking for money to survive and that they were trying to convince him to leave because its unacceptable for him to be treated like that abandoned in europe without money and so on and that he was just nodding his head and breathing (you know that type of upset breathing without saying a word)
sonor does have a back up who has played  some songs i posted years ago before he joined NH but i think he is not yet open to let him play or the label,because sometimes labels dont even know that there is back ups and want their known and trusted faces to be the ones doing the work
i remember a story of viagra studio session in academia with the producers arriving and being surprised that pitshou concorde who they did not even know yet was playing and they insisted that lebou comes

What is wrong with Espe Bass? Why did he joined back Roga Roga in the first place and why he keeps going back despite being paid peanuts? And why the family convinced him to stay? this is witchcraft ESPE MUST BE IN HIS 50s maybe and he gets treated like that

Yes, Roga might be a douchebag but nobody can't deny his talent in guitar playing wiyh Sonor he does have some good licks but most of his solo are boring cause he alwyas does the same thing with a little bit more variation and I don't know if it is stubborness or lack of diversity but his solo are starting to become pretty boring, il faut danser comme ça was fun and very danceable cause it was different but now is just the upteenth distorsion solo or usual boring solo who doesn't change.
