Wow. I literally watched his interview the other day when he was talking about Latino how you can’t compare the old quartier Latin to the current one.

It was painful to hear about the 12 he received when coming from South Africa. Kayembe Chez Ntemba advised him not to go back, knowing what he could risk. If he stayed he would still be alive or already moved to Australia, New Zealand or Europe like many others of that generation in SAF

Who was he?

Before becoming a dancer. He also used to be Koffi pire petit. Here are the video's where he talks about his life.

He had also an interview with Vicent Tshiluizi years ago along with childhood friends of Koffi, explaining how Koffi was living on his own when coming back from Europe, how he managed to get back to Europe after Historia Musica, etc. But I can't find it anymore. In the same video you had Koffi's friend Sambale explaining that it was Evoloko being the person that Koffi wanted to give songs (because of being the biggest star at that time and Koffi being also his fan) and not Papa Wemba. But because of Evoloko refusing, him going towards Papa Wemba, them becoming friends and rest being history

I saw a video of Tolin's family. Apparently according to one of the family members, Koffi and Tolin had a major fallout. I am just curious to know the story between Koffi and Tolin after Tolin had became one of Koffi's dancers.
