Tough crowd
As a newcomer to Viva/Nouvelle écriture he was one of the revelations of the years '97-'98 for his work on the 'Saï Saï', 'Dans L' ', and especially on 'Ya Biso Moko'. He was the direct response to Reddy, who had one foot out the door.
Being a big Viva fan myself, its very nice to see BendoSon Number 1 looking to make a comeback. Hopefully he's back for his passion of music rather than for financial gain because Wemba used to be notorious for forgetting to send out paychecks.
A good question Mamie ilela could've posed is what exactly are they planning to do in Viva, aside from being on the roster. Semi-retired Wemba is in no rush to have concerts or release albums anymore.
