Title: CHANGING STRUCTURES IN CONGOLESE BANDS
Post by: shamala on March 17, 2014, 12:33
I have noticed subtle changes in Congolese bands..

one...there ate no longer upcoming groups and those around are disintegrating fast for example QL sea yo have fizzled out...Ferrer group does not even have  a name...a while a go you could get four to five big names in a group now it is the president and others...I dare you guys to post a video of an upcoming video..you will notice the disintrrgrate once they become famous

two..bands have become too large and unwieldy for example BCBG has over 200 personnel and not counting adminstrative personnel.this is one of the reason why artists resort to witchcraft ,undermining others andusic pastrolism.

three...bands are now recruiting from music institutions more and more than the streets.if a musician is picked from the streets he goes to school to learn music..

Yes there is a up and coming group in Congolese music and that's Ferre's group and they do have stars in their group like singers Chikito,Guy Digital (Ferre's little brother) and atalaku Kunzarso and look at Fally's group they have a name F-Victime but they really get no shine so the name thing is kind of played out but it would be nice for Ferre's group to have an official name.

I don't get what your saying here because if they recruit a musician straight from a music school or a musician from the streets who goes to a music school then both will obviously have gone through a music school.

I would say it is because of selfishness all over not only on the part of leaders but also sponsors. Why would Fally and Ferre not give their bands name? It is pure selfishness. For a young group to come up they need sponsors, to which today no sponsor is willing to put their money on raw talent. On the other topic we've said that Wenge may have not been Wenge if the Mobutu's were not there. There are serious Congolese bands even outside Congo that are playing good music, but with no proper funding they are reduced to small pubs and they don't see the need to produce their own albums with no proper marketing. I will give an example of Congolese band Rhumba Japan playing here in Nairobi which have played very very good music for years but are not able to penetrate because of lack of good funding.

There is no band that is outside Congo that can make it. The fans in kin are instrumental in helping a band or artist to strive. Station Japan is good and I have watched them at simas in Nairobi several times. I even met a Kenyan woman, Joyce there, or my......she is nice I lost her number.

Coming to the topic, a band will come up I am sure but there has to be a shake up to dismantle this disease, SLOW TRACK MUSIC!! The band has to come up with a new unique sebene to shake ferre gola who is the major culprit now after koffi olomide. He is the one now poisoning our beloved music and discouraging bands to come up. I mean no band can make concert or cd sales from crying like birds in the orchard. Its sebene, sebene
