They have different tones,Chikito is no longer a pure tenorist, his voice has changed after becoming a man, Cafe Roum remains a pure tenorist,both singers are excellent, it's difficult to say who is better between the two.

After Qui Est Derriere Toi, Chikito's voice has changed and doesn't sound as good anymore but he is still a good singer but I will go with Café Roum as the better singer because he has actually gotten better as the years go by.

I noticed this too his voice doesn't sound as good as it used to. For me this was when his voice was really good.

I don't think he can sing like that anymore

I think Cafe roum is better because he took care of his voice better.

Chikito's voice has not really gone bad, he's a grown man now and not the 13 year old tenorist we first saw at Ferre's first concert in Bandal. Chikito's voice is now mature and he's no longer a pure tenorist , Café Roum is a pure tenorist. The other notable musicians with Chikito's vocal range are JB Mpiana, Ddid Kalombo, Papa Wemba etc, they can sing in many vocal ranges.
