Ezala Zola by Beniko Zero Faute Popolipo and Liberer Schengen By Savanet Depitcho R9. Both sound like Quartier Latin songs, Ezala Zala would've definitely fit in Force De Frappe and because of Mustapha being in the chorus it sounds just like the Force De Frappe chorus. Liberer Schengen the chorus the tenorist sounds like Eric Tutsi and it gives me the same vibes that would've fit in force de frappe also it has CNN doing the animation along with Champion playing on the drums.
I honestly think both songs would've fit in the album if they participated in the album.

You are spot on. With Beniko Popolipo sadly, Koffi pushed Beniko out of Quartier Latin due Beniko's solo album Alerte Rouge. I think both songs would have been perfect for the Force de Frappe album with the rhythm and singing styles. I wonder if CNN and Champion's participation on Savanet Depitcho's album also played a role behind Koffi's decision to get Titina Al Capone into QL and push Brigade more when he did the album Effrakata?

They had already left QL long before this album was recorded and released. CNN and Champion both left the group in 2001 and this album was released in 2003. It’s even got some affaire d’état cries in it.
