Remember how Anya Star simulated a blowjob in front of an entire Stade des Martyrs? Madilu's dancers really went all out here and appealed to the audience's carnal tastes. Almost like they knew the men in the audience were horny as hell lol. There's wild dancing, and there's this. I feel like this was when Congolese dancers had started to heavily sexualise their moves.
Werrason wanted to make his singers known, but Madilu wanted to be he only star and liked to see how his musicians were suffering. He didn’t care about performing at Zenith, Olympia, etc. He just wanted to release his albums and please musiclovers with his songs.Madilu would often abandon his band without money when going on tour in Africa, going back to Europe and those musicians fighting on their own to get back in Kinshasa. It’s sad because his band was full with talented artists like Pathy Moleso, Fofo Le Collégien, Volvo 840, Adricha Tipo Tipo, Babel, Rio Kazadi, Jeannot Ngidingongi,Mardorchee, etc.

So Madilu was a bad hearted man? Or is it safer to say that his time in OK Jazz made him greedy when he became a solo artist?I heard Franco rarely paid his musicians and members stayed loyal because they played for passion more than money.
Hmmmm according the late Edo Nganga, musicians like Josky Kiambukuta and Paul Ndombe, he would often not pay them well or not pay them which forced them to become gigolo’s.
