Papa Wemba himself doesn't know how to dance and everybody knows that. Koffi Olomide used to mock him back in the days in those old polemique-videos with him saying that he was only shaking his arms. The only concert where I saw him doing some effort was his Zenith of 2000 with Nouvelle Ecriture. With him saying on Fula Ngenge and Elongi Ya Jesus and never saw him dancing like that again or before. Except those rare videos of the 70s, but those days they used to dance very differently then now.
JB Mpiana invited Papa Wemba & Nouvelle Ecriture as guests to perform with him at his presatation-concert of Feux de L'Amour at Intercontinental (Pullman Kinshasa Grand Hotel) and when they the sebene started of Cavalier Solitaire he was doing nothing hahahah while JB Mpiana and Aimelia dancing very hard. Or maybe it was "charisme, jamais sapeur akoki kobina ndombolo yaba likaku. Eko sopa yo pe oko toka". Wemba also didn't like that stuff of atalaku's with him keeping minimisize them in interviews even when he recruited Alpatshino.
from 4:50 min
Papa Wemba looked awkward he could've walked off he looked lost.
