in short he said nyataquance will have 9 songs, that he does not mind at all ferre using dance ya ba boss aswell since back in the days there was dances used by several groups
he was informed of the death of cultura's eddy dolce and he said condolences to wazekwa and cultura  and said he is not enemies with any congolese artists but they are in competition and accuses journalists of being behind most conflicts and people tend to forget easily that before their clashs they had a lot of good times too and he bemoans a lack of solidarity in congolese music as because of egos every star has his staff making sure they remain as far as possible from other stars whereas if they were united they could have solved issues like the one of combattants
he adds that sometimes he misses the days of maisha park when they were seeing each other week in week out almost and having  a lot of fun together
he also regretted that because of that mentality our musicians do not do many feats together whereas we have  stars who could make feats which would be continental hits thanks to their fame and talent but we prefer doing it with guys abroad while the guys abroad are more united and their music is on the up(and he hints about a project with fally without naming him)
he also had a word to heritier about what happened recently saying heritier must not listen to people around him telling him its the good strategy  to be in conflict with werra he can be polite with werra,salute him if they meet and still have success and gives example of fally who has always been respectful to him because at the end of the day the whole world including those journalists and staff who take him to that path to show him they care about him discovered him in maison mere so we cant change history without werrason perhaps there would have been no heritier
he talked also about ibrator first pretending he does not know him but then saying that if he wanted to lure ibrator to quartier latin he would have done it years ago since ibrator used to give him songs and  he wishes him good luck because he sees him as the heir of modogo abarambwa

lol his position about spokesmen is quite funny,that's several times when he is in his "good and composed" days that he says if he was ministry of culture he'd ban the spokesmen job and that they are those who fuel polemic,yet he is also among those who have spokesmen doing polemic for him every week almost for years now,how will merveille and ronsard feel

Of course he will say that Felix is not his "enemy". He is just trying to play nice now that Papa Wemba passed away. He is trying hard and I give him credit but I can see through his bs.

Felix Wazekwa wrote some of Koffi's classic songs. He has Felix to thank for some of his fame. Just saying.

Tensions have eased between Wazekwa and Koffi for some time, especially when the both lost their fathers within a short amount of time.

That's beside the point. Wazekwa also greatly benefited from their collaboration - ultimately gaining the confidence and musical/monetary resources  to produce his own album

Koffi doesn't have to thank Felix for his fame. Koffi Olomide was already Koffi before Wazekwa's collaborations. Wazekwa only collaborated with Koffi on the Koweit-Rive Gauche-album and Noblesse Oblige. The only songs who stood out which he gave to Koffi are Desespoir and Koweit Rive Gauche who are both not on Koffi's top 20 best songs. If Wazekwa came towards Koffi because he proved to be a big songwriter in the albums Diva/Rue d'Amour/Henriquet/Elle et Moi/Les Prissoniers Dorment who where luring girls and intellectuals to him who where appreciating his songs. With fans like Duc Herode, Wazekwa, etc. who wanted then to contribute with some proverbs and songs.

Koffi never considered Wazekwa as his enemy, he saw he just as a dangerous person when he started he solo-carreer and when he was on the top during the Signature/Yo Nani/Et-Apres. Because he though that he could steal his place away, since both wrote songs for Papa Wemba, both studied on universities and similar style of writing songs and the same music-style. That's why did everything to let Wazekwa fail in almost his whole carreer until the Adamu Na Eva-days, by sending people to threaten music-producers who wanted to let him perform abroad or produce his music. He never responded to Wazekwa's attacks directly in interviews, since the beginning of his career. Because he know that if he does it could boost Wazekwa alot, like JB did to Werra after the Wenge-split.
