Exactly at the worst time…….. When does he think to release code 16?
Looks like he is in a bad position but bad luck is always on his side

Bro what’s wrong with him and his team?
We can keep blaming his team but at the end of the day it’s Ferre himself that’s the problem.
He needs to take the business side more seriously, I’ve lost count the amount of concerts he’s announced and then it ends up getting postponed. I don’t like to bring Fally into it but this never happens with him, heck it doesn’t even happen with Heritier so why always Ferre. He needs to do a complete clear out of his staff and get some more serious guys in because at this rate it’s not normal that these kind of things keep happening to him especially when he’s coming up to 20 years solo career.
Then him and his fans get upset when people say Fally is ahead of him, it’s because of things like this why it looks like Fally is ahead of him marketing wise, he needs to swallow his pride and just look at how Fally does business and try and do the same.

I’ve said this exact thing before. His team are not the one to blame fully, I blame Ferre himself. He’s not learning or trying to change at all and this concert was the last straw for me….i won’t bother with this guy no more, it’s actually pointless.

the biggest thing with him is even not for me that it happens,the most worrying is how they'll cope in between,we might just see him disappear for two months like he often does,including posting on his page,and that is a collateral damage of how he does not seem to want to adapt to the conditions of how the professional industry works these days,he said something in his two recent interviews,that he does not fancy much to sign contracts with some managers or structures because he wants to have control of his career,especially financially,while in order to have those manager with network and adapted to the new era,like it or not some will have a percentage even on your spitting lol like my brother says,they'll have 10 20 per cent on everything and my man does not seem ready for that,because it will also require him working according to their orders if he has to take 11 plane trips in 15 days he has to and i think he's a bit reluctant to losing that freedom while lets say it like it is people see him through the eyes of fally,to extent that all his arenas are given a credit like he barely did a dock eiffel because of not only what the rival did "bigger" or even the whole marketing around those events
like prince said,we dont want to bring fally into this,but in similar situations you'll have fally already posting that he is coming to 4 5 countries in africa to brush it away,like for example the american tour that never happened the fact he maintained a combined trips/jetset(how ironic lol)image brushed it under the carpet,like many other cancelled african concerts man could even afford almost two years prior to his stadiums with concerts that you can count because he had already "stocked enough credit in the bank" and kept his image alive still with those cameos those lives and so on,while ferre will just go "bunker mode" in his studio and his family life until one day a new date or something else comes
man

Yeah this man is done out here, age pe epusani

It hard being a Golois at times it really is. Every time Ferre has momentum it’s always something that halts it. Like JV said it might be too late, Ferre is 50 years old he’s set in his ways.
-
I’ve given up sticking up for him in debates with warriors. Imagine being the most talented singer in your country, yet no one takes you seriously because you lack basic business and marketing acumen as a professional musician 30+ years in the public eye.
@Jdog - agree it’s damn near impossible to change a 50+ year old’s mindset.
-
i know one thing that code 16 better be fire cuz for a show to get postponed three weeks before is just unprofessional mess

And he always comes u with some lame excuses when his concerts gets cancelled or rescheduled

you see the impact of lack of communication even after the news broke,before and after the match we "won" there has been a evergrowing running joke saying "we decided to go to sorcerer to bless congo he said bring to me something valuable,we decided to bring ferre gola,he said no thanks i cant do anything with that",do you imagine the level of leaving space wide open exposing your weaknesses you need to have to have people peacefully running such stuff,this is a country where even petit fally got taken seriously at the end because he has some management around now,its criminal that literally like it or not the first post AFDL star we've witnessed gets reduced to such level because of playing down everything or always thinking everything is under control
ferre should learn by now that congolese people dont rate cold confidence,somebody who just calmly takes his life whatever happens,most of us dont rate that they'd rather you look active eager to always impress and take risks and even if you fail you'll have succeeded in their eyes 8 times out of 10,even worse when you have an assigned rival,you have to be on the guy's toes constantly,especially if you are not the one who is the most media friendly
i could write for hours about my guy,heck even his looks sometimes help rivals mocking him,if i was him i would revert to braids reduce the beard a bit and wear more leather jacks and stuff like that,some some of updated version of his les marquis early quartier latin days look,back then you'd never hear so much about his height and all that because all what he wore and his demeanor with it kind of hid it,and when facing such an image driven rival such details also count

I completely agree with everything you just said. The problem with Ferre is, he got too many yes man around him and he got wayyyyyy too comfortable with his ways as an artist. All these concert venues he has played in, I can guarantee you he was not thinking about it. The pressure of his fans is what got to him….such a frustrating artist.
-
also he has traitors among his guys,how he's had say 10 cancelled concerts since the covid era and 10 times out of 10 its the rivals announceing it 1 week before,yeah it can be just the banter of the game,yes it can they were assured that something was done underground to make sure what the world is about to hear happens,but ultimately it cant also be constant like that without snitch or spies on a mission
there are guys like tresor or yeleza who try their best to give the impression that they care but then their own egos strike a lot when they talk,while the mentality should be i would happily lose some influence if somebody can contribute to taking us to a bigger place,imagine badiata alain nzambe and co had managed to absorb fally's ambition to block the way for manon or all those guys since the universal and elektra opportunities,fally maybe would have performed at martyrs way earlier and him and ferre continuing the blueprint of jb werra rivalry with fikin and martyrs at the heart of the project
look how much the perception of dilaso has changed because there is an atmosphere of we'll push together and live a part of the dreams of the boss while he literally started as "dit kende payeler nga lipa na saucisson"
-
Would it make sense for Ferre to release code 16 now or should he wait?
I remenber last year did Ndombolinho post that Ferre got a lot of things planned for this year and in June we only got Bercy.
Beside his rival, did 2 days stade de france, released a world album, will release a rumba album and O2 Arena in UK

Remember the charisma of the Avant Gout Boite/Noire days! Even (what I think was his best period) the SDM period. He had unreal aura in that period. I like to call it the Ferre rockstar era. I’m sure he got tips from LaPaja but hey 🤷🏾♂️
-
I don’t think Ferre’s interested as much. He’s just staying somewhat relevant because of the large fan base. He probably feels like he’s completed it all with the arenas, SDM & consecutive rumba classics. He gave a cryptic message about this in one of his interviews recently.
Maybe he’s planning to come back with Code 16 but I know my guy too well 😂 there’ll be hits in that album and he’ll come out aggressively but then go back to hiding when he has the opportunity to explode

While Ferre struggles to get his London concert going, Fally is about to announce 2nd date for OVO…levels 🤦🏾♂️

That's why Fally is the best

there might be that ebola thing some of the ferre guys are trying to defend with but this is why organisation and anticipation is key,pretty much every thing which includes legal stuff has loopholes to exploit in case,i am sure the fally admins alredy secured the visas way before these issues,or even if there is those issues they paid lawyers to find loopholes and alternatives,because they have that mindset that nothing will step in their way to
this is why the way there is so often start and stop in ferre's schedule goes against him because if he was accepting those "building bridges" contracts in order to perform more often he'd be used already to having for example january to april fully set and a big event say in june so by then he'd have made sure there is no interference between his tour and handing passports to maison schengen and co which can sometime take days and weeks of treatment/the dark arts behind the scenes because of rivalries
even back in the old format of "improvised administration",you always had to have a step ahead because of the competition,its not rocket science how those perceived as the best in the last 30 years( K W F lol )were those who'd always find solutions no matter what (until some drastic stuff like the dancers things stepped in,or bokul's ngulu affair )
