Explanation tomorrow

Heritier & Jack Love VOTE 9½

Heritier VOTE 9: Great song for a guy who just came yesterday on solo career, better than the years in MM for sure, the problem is that Heritier needs to step up vocally, because unless you are a very good fan of him it can be very difficult to stand the song with the inability of Heritier to have vocal range, since he only uses falsetto for reaching high notes which is the trick that many male musicians use if they cannot naturally reach high notes so this cost him the 10

Jack Love VOTE  10:
Finally some fresh things after years and years of Cindy in the female department, I don't know the road of Jack Love artistically but I really like that she has that Congolese tone in her that it could be used more in the past since it were more women who sang.
She really saved the songs in some part sometimes correcting (when someone sings your same part but way better) Heritier's lines and the work she did on the hook/chorus of Abeti Faux is pure art, I wish she can stay with Heritier a lot of time so she can build a name for herself the same way Cindy did.

The whole song is about a guy that loves a girl but don't show this feeling towards other people (that he want her) because he has an official girl at home so he acts fake every time they are in public but shows real love and affection when they see their selves secretly both Heritier and Jack Love play the part of the lover a.k.a. Mbanda of Maître  T T Kabwe because in Congolese music there are mainly four system of making music that can be even more if someone wants to add something different, the first and most recognizable is the generique where 90% of the time the topics are how great, caring, strong and intelligent the leader is for example Werra Champion Werra by Celeo in the last minutes of Ça Sonne or , Wenge exa Nzete Werra aza musisa (Wenge is a three and Werra is the root) and so on and 10% are life lesson experience translated to cries, the second one is the Rumba or Rhumba which is used for topic about love mainly but even for giving advice proverbs and so on. The third is traditional way making music, which is usually leader, atalaku or singers making song about their village or their tribe with all the kind of arguments keeping traditional instruments, for example Werra with Nioka Mubi and Zenga Luketo for Bayaka and Bakongo, Fally Ipupa with Elok'Oyo and Original, the great Mama Tshala Muana with Mutuashi or JB with the first minutes of Biloko and Remmy Ongala, Mbaraka Mwinshehe for Swahili songs.
The last method is to unite Rumba and generique which results in Seben, mainly in this kind of seben the generique are a second version of the main one and the Rumba is an occasion for giving even the small members an opportunity to sing or making everybody sing.


Heritier had chosen to make the traditional type of Congolese Rumba (slow start and then rapid change with solo on the end) making a revival of male and female duo in the past Franco and or Werra & Nathalie Makoma and many others did great job on male & female duo.
It is very interesting the way both of the guys here tried to make sound the song as almost a one person song in some parts starting and finishing each other sentences.

I have to admit that even though I am not an Heritier fan this song was on point on everything lyrics solo and especially the guitar solo at the end

Manzambi! Thank you for this.  My lingala is pretty old, basic and standard so when I hear slang, I have to read it to translate.

I myself am not a major fan of Heritier vocally because in WMM to me, he was a lazy singer, but the music on the album fits his limitations.  My favorite songs off of the album happens to be this one and Marlene de Reve.  As a huge Franco & OK Jazz fan, I hear a lot of borrowed elements for example, the bassist at times reminds me of Decca Mpuidi with a taste of Flavien Makabi, and Franco's plectrum in a couple of songs.  If Heritier wrote these songs, in which I hope he did, the lyrics remind me of something of Lutumba's caliber.  If that's the case, Heritier is probably one of the best song writers of this generation. 

If no one else appreciate your hard work, trust and believe I do.  Thanks again for your time in posting this.
Jack Love is 20 times better than Cindy to me.  I remember Haha Le Prof (wherever he is), compared Cindy to Mpongo Love, but Jack Love in my opinion takes that crown.  Granted, I've early heard one song, but she interprets these lyrics so beautifully, I'm giving her the benefit of the doubt.

I dont know if Héritier wrote his song himself but if im not mistaken Héritier worked with a guy called Vegas who gave him the song « tout en noir » and other that i’ve forgotten

I miss Haha Le Prof with his Koffiphile self . He was a true crusader for Koffi, even when he hit rock bottom with the garbage that was Skol Mandramanda.

lol, I don't know what Cindy did to Koffi for him to adamantly call her the best female singer in Congo, but I can name 10 Congolese female singers that have better voices than Cindy. She is good, but has a limited vocal range, so I get bored of her monotony. She is a professionally trained singer, I give her that.

abeti faux is a diego milito song,retirada is vigas,milito,djodjo lina,a bit of heritier and one new guy

Diego Milito is on Heritier's group or in MM? Because I don't know if is a singer or mbonda player anyway wow great songwriting ability.

Thanks a lot Tata Nkiadi your words really means a lot to me, it is a huge huge boost to continue the transcription of the lyrics.
Yes I see a lot of Franco and TP JAZZ in general, plus Koffi and Carlito on some other songs listening well to Carriers D'Honneur especially in the Brandon part I have heard some Wenge Tonya Tonya vibes in that especially Brandon avatar parts looks like a song called Cardozo by Wenge TT







I think that one of Heritier's  unsuccessfulness in Congo but being very appreciated in Ivory Coast and other French speaking foreign countries is the fact that he uses a lot of French and he looks like the first Kibens a lot of philosophy quotes and sentences that Congolese people really don't like, furthermore he doesn't have his own style in the Rumbas he always looks like someone else and in the generiaue there is only one good dance but I think is normal, since Werra started solo career looking to be like Emeneya in the first times and Fally, doing like Koffi, Mabele Elisi and Wenge as his influences or Ferre too who started with those Carlito type of vibes but developed his own style, now I hope that in the next album he could give something unique and not making the same mistake that Robinio did on Tika Ko and Jouer Le Balloon, but he really needs to step his game up, there are Ferre, Fally, JB's album that is always on point on rumbas (when JB wants) Deplick and plenty other talented musicians who have more vocal range than Heritier

he was in maison mere,then left to go back to interpretation groups then joined heritier's group

here he is he is a deuxieme voix singer

I can understand Heritier, and that this is a solo Album (Retirada) but come on, Diego Milito sings 10 times better than Heritier and it is just unfair that he is taking all the credit for Abeti Faux without shouting out Diego Milito, if it is your own album you write your own music if not give people their credit

I'm really agree with you @Manzambi, for example, "De Luxembourg" adopts a typical Koffi's Tcha Tcho style

Good job on the lyrics and translation. I don't really like the song, to me there's better songs in Retirada.
