He will never make anything as great as this....this generique was fire because of Kapaya with strong guitar licks like sous sol
The guy is surprisingly talented, the work he did on this album is good but would have been perfect had he reduced on his own solo vocals, he should let proper singers do it.I don't think Flamme should get all the credit of the perfection of these two generiques as Flamme himself failed lamentably on his own solo albums and it actually brings something to my mind, of all top and popular soloists in modern Congolese music, I think only Roga Roga, Alain Makaba and Pitshou Santiago have actually made decent sebene albums after going solo, the ones who have released shit sebenes are actually from Maison Mére first it was Japonais with his crap world music followed by Flamme Kapaya also with a too much cut and paste work on his Ebebaka Mabe crap generiques then now kimbangu doing his world music and crap reggae just like Christian Mwepu is doing, I think these guys smoke too much weed at Maison Mére and think they are rastas!!
They seem to get lost and lose their own identity by trying to hard...Kapaya disappointed me big time with that crap Ebebaka Mabe and to think he had Bill and Celeo to animate
my bad i forgot zoulou mbonda yeah you are right about kapaya, i went to two or three of his concerts here in france i was like "who is this guy" he played completely differently to what we know and it was quite boring
