I will translate on memory since i watched it live and did not watch again since

he said he had decided not to do interviews with congolese press for a while because he did not feel respected enough and overall did not appreciate how monotonous the interviews had become with plenty of polemic very little of pure art
and naty asks if it is because he now got access to most big french channels that he dumped congolese tv and he said no he decided way earlier proof is even his friend naty was denied interview for two years now
 he says tokooos is a good experience for him because he needed to challenge himself and promote congolese music abroad  while still adapting a bit to  urban music so there is some songs who still have a strong congolese vibe,and he is happy about how album is doing at the moment and warner music are happy aswell because he has sold over 30000 cds which he finds great for a such a new experiment both from congolese and urban music
 he said unfortunately in DRC  a lot of people would rather something bad continues to happen than accepting criticism and improving so it seems a lot of person were hurt by him just basically wanting press to be more professional for the good of our music he is sorry for some  but he is sorry aswell for those who were hurt because if they know they do nothing wrong they would not be hurt by him
 press had been for way too long untouchable and has contributed heavily  to promoting some things which were once nice but which on long term contributed to our downfall and if they can sit down and  make a honest assessment he believes much more of them will agree
 he was asked whether its true that he did f victeam just to help musicians who would never be a potential threat to him  as he produces lambio lambio and he says  no and people should respect lambio who despite being old has something to offer and except lambio he has all the young guys featured on to dondwa and an album coming soon and  helping people does not necessarily have to go through f victeam as he gives example of robinio mundibu who does outside tokooos the same music with sebene and rumba and is on the rise who he supports as much as he can   and adds that he will not produce people just for the sake of it those people have to be guys who are respectful and down to earth because he accepts no "grey" ,with him its always black or white,either they are getting along very well either  they do not talk to each other anymore none of those fake friendships for any interest
and if something he falled out  with in public approaches him to apologize in private(possibly talking about fabregas) he does not consider it  until the person has honesty of also apologizing on tv where he did wrong and anyways even if he forgives its not always that you'll find somebody who proves you  that becoming friends again is worth it
he talked about his nicknames like "genius" "the greatest" and so on and gives example of jb,koffi,papa wemba who also had huge superlative nicknames  and it did not bother anybody people accepted them like that and says he works hard to back it up with his music
 he talked about his relationship with koffi saying koffi is like a father for him and he has massive respect and when he left  he wanted to prove that you can be succesful when leaving  a band without having a long term public beef its true that he cant lie that he appreciated some things koffi did  towards him but its obvious that the great things koffi did for him are much much bigger than the bad ones so he is forever grateful and also have massive respect for the likes of jb werra and co and even some guys who are just older brothers regardless of whether they are very active and succesful and he goes back talking about journalists and respect saying one of the reasons he decided to stop for a while is also that lack of respect  he sensed from journalists who were treating musicians depending of their current success and says in the current state of affairs you'll see some journalists act very arrogant towards of legends like titina alcapone,willy bula and co just because they are not dropping hits these days  so they forget all they had done and he disagrees with that
he says to people saying he has done tokooos because he cant do rumbas anymore he says he has over 30 solid rumbas recorded already  and he has proved times and times again that he is one of those who are very good on rumbas and he is one the rare artists who can play several rumbas abroad with fans singing along
he is asked about why he does not "create stars" like some other artists and he reminds people that not too long ago he had in his group the likes of kanza and equaliseur who became resident card owners in europe thanks to him touring a lot with them and who were given a warm welcome in quartier latin because they were already known

Can he just release all 30 songs, it's been four years. Hopefully there is sebene in some of those rhumbas. I don't Fally has any stars in his band right now (a shame for a big artist) like how he and Bouro was with QL and Ferre and Bill in MM.

Just pick the rhumbas that do not involve you saying the donor's name & "Cherie" for more than half the song

@cmprince; he's been teasing génériques whenever he posts repetitions, so I hope it's not all for nothing. i can count on one hand all Fally's/F'Victeam's sebene songs, so format probably won't change

It wouldn't fit, fan's biggest desire is to see Fally and listen Fally not Arnaud, Kabuya, Identity and so on

Possibly the reason why Libre Pacours as an album did not live up to expectations?

Yes the main reason, the rumba songs were better than ADBM but apart the #2 generique the other two generique and the rumbas had very little success compared to sweet life and so on

Manzambi, of course fans want to hear the main artist but you can't say that even in a solo album Brigade, Fally, Bouro, Bill and Ferre didn't get a lot of shine in their respective groups. Even in a solo album I want to hear more from the singers (the good ones) and animators from F'Victeam it's what Congolese music is all about artists having careers within a band and coming together as unit.
