While Didi Kalomobo does not travel with BCBG or has a main position in BCBG I have noticed that he has quite an influence.
On the rare occasion he is around for repetition or concerts they play songs with his vocals and there are numerous shout-outs to him by both singers and atalakus.
What exactly is his role and why is he not a mainstay or frequent during repetitions and concerts ?
Below is an example

despite not being too high in the pecking order,he still is quite respected even from the elders so he has a role close to caludji's with the difference that caludji travels,metro's arrival also changed his situation because most of the parts he was singing even on balle de match apart from his own song were metro's so naturally metro took it back so the fact jb travels now with both metro and rio plus caludji that's 3 tenorists there so no space for him

Thanks,
Is he a prolific writer for the group? If so, which are his songs?
