I'm sure that Marcahouse will record several interviews if Fally lose.

I'm sure that Marcahouse will record several interviews if Fally lose.

I know I was thinking the same thing he's most likely prepared already

yeah lol  and you can also expect ken mpiana and prince babia's mother manicke to make hundreds of interviews to taunt artists especially ferre
the days of marchouse doing his dirty work hundred times more than guys for fally are over now its 50/50

People still care for BET Awards ? LOL.

Does Dadju count as a Congolese Musician or a French Based artist who's Congolese? I hear elements of Congolese music in his work but for the most part it sound Banku/Afrobeat. Anyways, I'll support  .

, Maitre Gims doesn't even have French nationality yet

Yet he believes he should be viewed as a Frenchman and not Congolese, smh. That’s why Congolese diaspora is currently pissed at him.

If you’ve been in a country since age 2 and still denied citizenship, then it’s should make you prouder of your true origins.

I heard he chose the Moroccan nationality. LOL. He's not congolese.

If they actually show that part ima be happy. Usually categories like that you find out the winner online but hopefully they broadcast it. They did have a french rap cypher in like 2013 so anything is possible with the BET awards as far as international acts.

HIGHLY doubtful.  Wizkid broke the glass ceiling when he had that track with Drake late last year.  Other than that Afropop isn't popular in the US like it is in countries like France, UK, the Netherlands etc.  I'd rather like to see our artists earn a Grammy award that has more weight and recognition than a BET award.  Just my opinion.

Yeah, the BET awards doesn't have much prestige in the states. Usually the big name nominees don't even show up. It's only more prestigous than the Vibe (no longer in existence) and the Soul Train awards.

For Fally, it's a big coup because years ago people mocked him because he and Monsoh used to invite themselves to the BET awards (and Grammys) ceremonies just to be there, now Fally is an award nominee.

It's very diffcult to get nominated in the category 'Best World Music Album'. Papa Wemba who had alot of succes with his album Emotion in 1995 with the hit-single 'Fa Fa Fa Fa' and the hits 'Yolele', 'Show Me The Way' & 'Rail On' didn't even get nominated in 1996 for that category. The same thing with the Le Voyageur-album of 1992.

Papa Wemba could have done more in his world-music career, but the Congolese community didn't understand his vision and his staff complaing how Wenge & Koffi and his 'petit' Reddy were taking his place. Which made him make a return. I could have been bigger than Youssou N'dour.

Youssou N'dour is not that Big. He was known in the West for that "7 minutes away" song but that's it. The average westerner can't give you the name of 5 N'dour's songs. Congolese really overrate Youssou N'dour.

Also Congolese like to blame Wemba for his comeback in the congolese scene saying he could've been bigger. But Wemba did the best he could at that level. In the mid 90's the "world music" wave was basically done. If he continued, he would've ended like Kester or at best Magic System (making clownish music) and never gave us "Foridoles", a true masterpiece. Foridoles is superior to all his "world music" albums.

Yes the average western listener. The same average doesn't know one of Wemba's song.

They blame Wemba, because Youssou N'dour won several platina discs in France. He sung in many soundtracks of movies (Kirikou, etc.), sung the Fifa-World Cuo anthem of France '98, received many honors in several countries. Which made some people angry saying why someone who came later then Wemba in the word-music genre could have achieved so many things. Yes Magic System's music doesn't make sens but they got respect in France, Belgium and Switerland, what many African artists are looking for in Europe and never receive. They have a mixed public if they give their concerts (60% of the people being white, arab of from the West-Indies), while if other African artists perform in Europe then 80% or 90% comes from Africa. They also received many platina discs and were several times in the top10 of the French, Swis and Belgian musicharts,something what African-artists are dreaming. African artists and their public want to see their music be respected in Europe and the US.

I don't really think that he would have ended like Kester. Because Reddy and Stino were holding the flag of Viva La Musica with their albums and he still had a big fanbase, giving huge crowded concerts back in 1991 & 1993 for Bracongo. His worldmusic-career boosted him more and made him tour all the continents (Asia, Europe, America,.). I don't think that his death would have created a earthquake if he didn't had a worldmusic-carreer.

The other problem with Emeneya was that he didn't had major recordlabel behind him and he guys like Malembe Chante & Mabusele didn't have the succes Reddy & Stino had. Everybody (1993) was produded by Sonodisc who promotes in music in Africa and the West-Indies (Caraibes) and Latin America, the way it was promoting Koffi's albums and the public their was not used to those synthesizers only wanting Soukous

Youssou N'dour comes from Senegal. Their ties with France are different, "specials" I might say. That's the reason Youssou N'dour received al these opportunities. He had a lot of "push" that Wemba did not had. You talk about the Kirikou stuff or the World cup. At that point, nobody cared about Youssou N'dour musically. This is a point JB talk about all the time. Those opportunities are more political than anything. Senegal is loved and seen as a cultural african bastion by the french elite. Those things does mean much in reality. Another example is Angelique Kidjo. She had one hit Years agoooo but she kept having grammies for best african or whatever world music album even though nobody cared for her and her music whether in Africa or in the West. She's barely known at this point but she has grammies. 

I don't know about N'dour receiving multiples platines album. But his success in the West was in the early 90's. During the same period Wemba sold a lot of album too, I thing 500/000 units for Emotion or le Voyageur. But as I say, the world music wave was done by the mid-90's. Even Kester finally let go of his dream of breaking into the western market. Wemba did everything that could've been done at that level (people forgot that Wemba was being invited on national french television in the 80's playing with huge rockers !). But by the mid-90's, the party was over ! Nobody cared about all that fusion pop/3rd world music anymore. It was a fade. All the Wemba, Ndour, Salif Keita, etc did not have the same access to the western market they had in the late 80's/early 90's.

Also, don't forget even in Senegal, people were blaming Youssou Ndour for not being the first to make it into Bercy. Koffi, a congolese, did that. Until this day, when Youssou Ndour comes to Bercy, he will bring a huge number or senegalese musicians just to be able to fill it.

Youssou Nd'our is basically a one hit wonder. He's local senegalese musician with international connects. Nothing else. He's not a bigger musician than Papa Wemba.

Yeah, Magic was able to sustain because they basically make clownish western music. Magic does not make african music anymore. This is what Wemba should have done ?  don't think so ? And Magic is not international. They are just french musicians. Even at the international level, they did not surpass Wemba.

To me, when it comes to his international career, Wemba did what should've been done : he strikes the iron when it was hot; when it got played out, he came back to his roots and gave us classics. Kester should've done the same thing instead of trashing his career with "Everybody", not a bad album, but it came out too late.

Mvulusie, Archos, CM Prince you 3 have given me the joke of the day wasn't it Fally who said we ain't got time to listen to them kie kie 1st knock out was him getting Marc House arrested while you using Naty Lokole and Nana Moduga to do his dirty work but the insults weren't hurting as much as Ferre's camp while FVicteam artists making thousands of video's nobody listens to only laughing then they get together with Caligula Koffi to attack Ferre 2nd round defeat 1eme soins Koffi called Ferre weed smoker Ferre attack back and as usual ba tantine run quickly to the justice system.
