 he says he wanted to be a lawyer when he was younger because he liked to defend people and hated injustice since a very young age,his late father was a wealthy man who even became politician,deputy and minister under mobutu but he passed away in 81( when he was 9 years old) he was a rather smart kid but already had that agressive troublesome bit about him which is not his real nature by the way as he admits that in reality he is a very sensitive person so in order not to be dominated he created that character
he says then as time went on he started getting into sport but also had contact with music quite early with his late dad playing songs,one of his uncle being bongo wende,and other uncles being around musicians so he had music in himself,along with his brother gessan sakoko and his cousins winnie mandela and eclipse mososo (who are direct brothers and sisters)
then in the mid 1990's after a long time in street groups and the occasional wenge junior here and there he joined golden tchatcho of duc herode with flamme kapaya,bouro mpela,mamale,serge mabiala,sakoko...  and at that time already in 1996 suzuki told him to learn quartier latin songs as he starts thinking about leaving koffi and he appreciates him
 then years later,after his time with  aime buanga he got taken to quartier latin for tests by quartier latin former bodyguard late maitre 150(celeo's uncle) while he hoped to really make an impact with a group from his area bandal like wenge did
and there was a crop of musicians being prepared already as koffi was informed of possible  massive departure and jordan was then part of it and he said there was a lot of back and forth  koffi even kicked them out once when he heard a musician was dating a dancer and koffi was not paying attention to him as he did not look like a potential  direct replacement of those who left,and  one day koffi came and in his typical self starting talking on his own saying "that bercy finna be fire,this team is too full of stars and potential" and then they went to bercy on plane without him as he came later with mustapha unlike how some people say he was not on the list and managed to come on his own and when recording force de frappe he still was not given a shot then he took his courage and said to koffi in front of them how come i have no song and the likes of fally and co who arrived after me get one,and he got his song out of that courage
he then talked about the infamous conflict of koffi with jb saying he was sent by koffi being the guy in the group who had the most history with jb,as his uncles were donors of jb and jb was giving him money so that him and the other wenge junior guys can pay taxi back home
so as he had to fully defend his boss,he went with all his strength and he says there will never be again somebody who defended his boss as strong as him but then later things went sour and he had to go through a lot of things which would have brought him down forever if he was not a strong yankee
then in 2003 while suspended,he called jb to apologize and to inform him that koffi plans to reconcile with him but with an hidden agenda and its roger ngandu who answer the call then passed to jb later and he imitated jb saying" ehhhh kusa,you messed up you went too far"  and that he has utmost respect for jb,werra and  obviously koffi although he is not scared to tell koffi when he disagrees with his behaviour which may make some think the contrary and took his glasses off to thank koffi for having helped him become a known artist and he wanted to say it while koffi is still alive

i forgot to add that he started thinking about joining big groups when he saw some of his friends join them and saw how their lives were changeing and he gave an anecdote which make him laugh about how after ultimatum tour bouro gave him a bit of "attitude" as if he was not anymore his pire petit as europe tour boosted his confidence big time

Haha, touch a Maitre and you will wish you were never born, as their whole network of black belts will find you and beat you to a pulp. Even so, Jordan by himself would do some damage

And  by that courage his song became one of the best in that album. A great dancer he is, I loved his presence in those songs.

kiekiekiekie that part of Koffi being surprised to see Jordan in Europe kills me. Congolese are good in spreading fake stories with the most people believing it.

It's crazy to hear that Jordan is related to Koffi's son Elvis and also to Aliane Olomide. I always thought that she was 100% Haitian or French Antillian or something like that and that she never lived in Zaïre. So she's also from Bandal ? I think that Ingrid Kabongo was confused with Jordan calling everybody grand frere or petit frere propre. Congolese people used to also their cousins brothers and sisters, that thing about calling them cousins didn't exist, because Congolese people didn't like it since that they knew that he could create divisions in the family. But it started to change with Congolese immigrating to Europe.

this explains why aliane called him christian and not jordan,if you remember there is a video were jordan said  he was sidelined from a rehearsal because he went to ask for food for him and his colleagues and she told him christian what you guys want to eat and koffi was unhappy that he spoke to his wife directly
