LOL for the first time Koffi danced good, but this album wow probably the best quartier latin album stiff competition with Affaire D'etat and even the team this was complete sqaud the same with the Affair D'etat team. my favourite song goes to Sam's Miss nicole and modogo alai debs (that chorus "j'ai chante..." what a harmony and chemistry between the singers) and obviously the dances and animations legendary even the female dancers great album and good memories.  :)

Like Sam said it's too bad that they lost the data off the version recorded in Kenya with Babia and Éric Tutsi but it's still a excellent album

I'll go with Magie and Force de Frappe as my Fav. QL album
Magie with songs like Mansouri,Amen,Shambouyi

Force De Frappe the generique, songs by Eric Tutsi,Fally, Lola Digital,Do Akongo.

Affaire d'etat was good overall,but lacked catchy dance and Animation..but the solo by ramazani and Felly Tyson were excellent

I would say that Utlimatum is a very good album but it is not his best but it does demonstrate the geniuses of koffi olomide back in the 1990s.

I say the best Koffi work has to be Force de Frappe. Those songs are pretty good if you ask me.

1. Force De frappe
Hands down one of my favorite Koffi/QL albums just on the intro alone Aquarelle, Eternellement ,Kompressor, Dulcinee, Arche de noe, Pragmatisme all fire songs Mamale Tupac and Jordan Kusa really shine on this album
2. Ultimatum
This the only QL album where they got the credit alone anway classic album intro fire as always Bouro Mpela stand out as a star on  here, Miss Nicole, Ali Debs, Fois cent, Sheraton, Mbrime all classic songs
3. Droit De Veto
Hey say what u want about Depitsho's voice he sounds like Kermit the frog lol etc but he made this album STAND OUT  period and i think his voice is pretty unique he killed it on Retour Riva, his own song Shopping is quite nice as well. But everytime i listen to this album i wonder what wouldve happend if Sam never left QL smh
4. Affaire D'Etat
Piwawa.... thats all i gotta say FIRE
5. Pas De Faux Pas
Slept on this album heavy but after a few spins its great

1) Ultimatum or Magie

I might go for Ultimatum since the sound is better, even though the version with Babia and Eric Tutsi should've been out.

2) Pas de Faux Pas - Etage Ya Suka

Very underrated album.

3) Affaire d'État?

I'd say that the best Quartier Latin album would definitely be MAGIE.

Ultimatum was my childhood but MAGIE with that distortion guitar!

Ah ah ah ah. Non c’est possible. How did you bring an a 5 year old thread back ?

Lol, I put Danger de Mort on 1 l, because I was tired of listening years long Droit de Veto, Magie & Force de Frappe over and over again in those days. But yeah Magie was Quartier Latin’s best album followed by Force de Frappe.

No doubt the number 1 album is Magie followed by Affaire d'état those two was very complete (choir, vocals, sebene...)

Maggie is one of the tops

Anybody for V12 ?

Title: Re: THE BEST QUARTIER LATIN ALBUM
Post by: Mfumu Vata on October 23, 2020, 20:03
V12 is Koffi's solo album, that's not a Quartier Latin album.

Affaire d'etat is the best followed by droit de veto and ultimatum. A lot of you guys really like force de frappe here but it really seemed like an overlooked album but I cant seem to think why that is. Maybe because they rarely perform songs from that album in the concerts

Danger de Mort and Pas De Faux Pas will always be my go to records. People judge DDM by the sound quality, but it was still a solid record regardless!

Indeed lol Willy Bula sing in the first version of Ultimatum too.

Back to the topic my favourite Quartier Latin album will always be Magie (I know.every song by heart lol). I wish I was older back then. Everybody must have been impressed that Koffi adapt his style to compete with Wenge by surrounding himself with youngsters

No one made mention of Effrakata here...I'd think that album ranked higher than Danger De Mort. This album gave us some of QL best animations from Brigade and Bebe kero ...unless Effrakata was a solo album from Koffi.

Effrakata is a Koffi solo album not a group album.

Guess I answered my own question. Thanks for the clarification CM.

Here's my question: What's the difference between group album and solo album? I watch most of these things and the format is the same. Band leader sings, band members sing. The only thing I see is that you as band member "own" the song on group album. Anything else?
