Did Dicarson stop collaborating with tv-channels in Congo-Brazza. Because the way he started and the video itself is very informal

i think they might have seen him as too big in the group while they did not want the lead singer formula so they spent years trying to politely get rid off him

But they solicited for him to join them at the beginning. Why would they want to get rid of him?

if you look at it well,the 3 high profile departures were people who did the shoutouts(levyson,obama,bastin) i believe sonor and so on feared the shadow of roga coming to haunt them in the sense that those who did the shoutouts started having a lot of ambition and demands(even dido who is the fourth to have done shoutouts at some point was rumoured to have left) and they are trying their absolute best to never go down a unique leader formula
then you have bebert etou aswell who is quite controlling
when i mean get rid of him not necessarily in a bad way but like his presence can be hindering,as he is not one of the founders of the band but has to be treated  like one,at some point there are clashes especially between singers,even himself bastin was relieved the day levyson left because levy was always trying to install competition between them and show him he is not one of the big dons of the group but somebody who came when they laid foundation already

I hear you. Interesting that they had to let him go over egos. Now EMNH is a shadow of itself with the now likely departure of Zapparo.

he is in europe to get longterm papers,but then also there might be something between him and bebert in particular and also lets not forget that he basically put his solo career on hold to join and co create nouvel horizon so with how urban and dance music has taken over the industry in terms of hits i am sure he has too many songs like that he wants to release which would not be possible as a fulltime band member
if you look at it there is too many examples of people who abandoned solo career to join a group who end up solo again(titina,judol in bcbg,aimelia in maison mere...)

He hasn't officially left but is likely to leave. If you follow Papy Bastin somewhere in that interview, he says it's like the group has already replaced him because they are even hesitating to send him the generique single they are working on for him to add his parts. That with the fact that Youyou Mobange started rehearsing with the group all but confirms his departure.

Thanks Archos and Cavalier, I understand now. It did seem like he was only there temporarily to help the group and that he was eventually going to go solo. It seems the time may now be coming.
