wazekwa had a phone interview on tv where he had to stop within a minute because he was crying too much then more recently  a longer interview where he said he is grateful to papa for life because he had actually given songs to papa for free but papa paid him an important amount of money and also papa was like a father to him at that time,when  papa wanted to speak with his guys about some stuff which were and still are typical of the star system( women money and all those things...) he was telling wazekwa to move away a bit like a father who does not want to spoil his children with adult stuff
and he also said what stunned him with papa was that when in private  he was very very humble,he'd listen to advice carefully then pick what he felt like important instead of just saying i am papa wemba so i do not need advice and  sometimes papa wanted to please people around him too much,and if today he is a professional musician its all due to papa wemba who told him he was a good enough singer  to consider singing his own songs and he did it with papa's benediction

i also wonder how papa lutumba took the news... he has really seen it  a lot , people around him dying  and him still being there . its hard to conceive but has  the dude from magic system said . God will never put you into a situation that you cant take since he knows us well. i havent felt this way  since the day MJ died .  still cant believe kuru is gone
