great bassist,at times you can feel he says some things just because he is still in a group,like we all know when you are in a group as soon as you start speaking too much you own mind,different from what the group wants you to say trouble starts e g lobeso

Did he came back in 2003 or 2005 ? It's crazy that Koffi sidelined him for so many albums while him and Suzuki contrubuted a lot to Quartier Latin.

He played on Pas de Faux Pas, Noblesse Oblige, Magie and V12. Then on Ultimatum they had 4 bass-players (him, Binda Bass, Pathy Bass and Sunda Bass) with Koffi prefering Binda Bass over them. Then after the tour Jean-Marie Motingia Tuna of Zaiko joined them which made him furious and join Zaiko which was before the last recordingsessions of Loi with Koffi then prefering Pathy Bass and Binda over Motingia Tunga. Then he went back but he was unlucky to not have a visa to go to Europe and play on Droit de Veto. After that he got sidelined on Attenat because of having an affaire with a dancer. On Effrakata he was thinking that Rocky Blanchard would ran away in Europe after seeing how Pathy Bass & Clovis Silawuka left. So he decided to join Academia but he was unlucky that Sam couldn't return anymore to Kinshasa with the Kinshasa-fraction disbanding in 2003 and the most musicians joining Quartier Latin one by one (Tonton Lay, Tshe Tshe le Balle, Mbetenge Domingo and Rocky Blanchard). But Koffi wasn't respecting anymore until 2007 with him restaring to play albums. He participated on BEK and when Binda Bass returned to Europe in 2010 he got his role back as keymember with him playing the most songs on Abacadabra.

Did Motingia Tunga ever play bass on any albums for Koffi, aside from Wake Up with Wemba?

No because he only spent 4 months or something like that in Quartier Latin. He joined 2 months before the last recordings of Loi, but Koffi prefered to take Pathy Bass and  Binda Bass instead of him. I don't know what happened between both guys. Maybe there was a problem or he had difficulties to adapt to Quartier Latin's style which I don't believe or he was maybe skipping rehearsals which Koffi hates. After that he rejoined Zaiko quickly and became the thrid bassist behind Oncle Bapius Muaka and Rocky Blanchard. Blanchard made a big mistake of rejoining Zaiko. I think that he regrets it until this day.
