Chai says that after a long period of disagreement between him and his older brother senado over becoming a musician,senado told him if he is really wanting music to be his job he should go apply in bcbg who were recruiting after titanic to build PPU
and he did so and there were hundreds of singers including the likes of fally,soleil and some other guys who are now leaders aswell
and they were tested by group of 5 and in that group of 5 he was in he impressed jb straight away and unlike some other guys who did well( rio,alba accompa,zygal and so on) he was told to give his personal information to mbuta kiss and start rehearsals straight away with the team of alain mpela and co and since people cheered him a lot at tests over his performance jb gave him nickname of ngenge (power) he says now he has gone he misses the group and especially jb but life goes on and they have good relationship
he is forced to talk about his illness and leaving and he says maybe' it had to happen like that so that he leave
he adds that many guys in the group are not active and productive(he is not necessarily talking about his generation emo lol) but jb has a too nice heart that he cant kick them off and some end up leaving themselves(example of mente or cellulaire who is said to be on the verge of leaving) but he says on his own case,he convinced jb to give a good opportunity to the likes of zulema,abel,pajo...and adds that bcbg has a too big squad( over70 musicians who participate to concert plus many who have never ever been on stage since their test)
he says sometimes jb tried to be less nice but it was not natural from him so it stopped quickly which is why for example he protected kibens and co when they were wanted out of the group instead of firing them
he says he is sure of himself because he is a great singer and even his friends fally and ferre know it,his album will have 12 songs and he will be the first "child" of jb who succeeds
he is asked about what he thinks of maison mere and more precisely who he rates the most in the group, he says heritier because he is a great and experienceartist,he used to take heritier sometimes at his house during his time in bcbg and they were working a lot and heritier was even sleeping at his house so he is proud of who he has become today

Ah,good revelations, will follow the interview later. Thanx for the summary.
-
If he is not talking about his generation then who is lazy in Bcbg?? And I can name atleast 20 singers who are way better then Chai. If Cellulaire leaves then where would he go because no other group would put up with him.

like he said there are many guys who never ever stepped on stage but who are at rehearsals( some ended up in his group by the way) because they do not make that extra effort to be allowed on stage
yeah would be though for cellulaire to find another group unless he wakes up because his problem is not talent but rather extreme laziness
-
I dont hate kibense, rio, cellulaire, genta, segiun personally but I hate their presence in the band. Even chai, a close person to the band acknowledges it. So I dont lie when I talk about this.
-
yes indeed but the case of genta is a bit particular,he has never ever been wanted out and was even very pissed and almost fought with some fans when he received stones on stage the same way as the other guys
his voice sure has changed and himself knows it but at the end of the day what matters most in his type of voice is having key animations which are popular,its the tenorists which almost lose any interest when they can not hit very high notes anymore(look at how people are doubting celeo these last years)
"unfortunately" for rio, he left the woman who could have got him out of bcbg because she made him chose either he comes to europe live with her and their kids or he stays in bcbg and forgets about her and their kids for life,and he prefered remaining in bcbg

Then Rio is a fool.
