Koffi Olomide's interview with Serge Kayembe after Bercy (2000)

I can see Chikito Mutakatif, Kisindjora and the actress Denise Tshimpaka 'aka Lipati' on the background.

Koffi's show at Bercy made the Ivorian press put pressure on Alpha Blondy to perform at Bercy and Youssou N'dour following him later. Saying to him how could Koffi haved performed as first African artist at Bercy, while Alpha made many hitsongs in the world. It would been interessting if they gaved Koffi the opportunity to perform at Parc des Princes. I don't think that Papa Wemba, JB Mpiana and Werrason would follow him there. Maybe Alpha and Youssou N'dour. Koffi's succes in Africa was to big having alot of contracts for live-shows in his pocket. In 2000 he spent like in 1997 only 3 months in Kinshasa. If didn't made a little pause on his African tour then he would return in December, having left Kinshasa in January 2000.

I always thought chikito and kisindjora left around the time koffi was touring bercy man I still don't know whether it was a good idea for chikito to leave QL at that moment for ppu of bcbg even though that was a great team

Kisindjora left when Koffi left his cousins Bibi Sucre and Babia behind in Kinshasa for the Zenith of 2001. Then she decided to bring Bibi Sucre to Wenge BCBG with her on the end also ending up there. I think that Chikito joined PPU around the same. It was very difficult to make it on the line-up having also Bouro just rejoined and later Chamberton of Anti-Choc. The same for the guitarists.

Who's the girl sitting next to Éric Tutsi ?

I don’t know but she looks like Lipati
