Hahahaha Chairman ?? You must know how many people ridicule him lol. Btw people from Kinshasa don't even listen to music from Brazzaville. Ask them if they know a song from them and 90% will say no.Adolphe's idols were Papa Wemba and King Kester Emeneya like every youngster of the era. Adolphe was imitating Edingwe and those wrestlers of the 80s/70s when he in Wenge Maison Mere. Nyoka Longo was doing almost the same thing during the early 90s.
Youlou Mabiala is an exception. Don't forget that used to be in OK Jazz before his solo-career.Ask to random people in Lemba, Kintambo or Lingwala if they they know at least 10 songs of Kevin Mbouande or Roga Roga, some will even ask who Kevin Mbouande is. There isn't an artist from Brazza who played in a soldout Palais du Peuple, Stade des Martyrs, Stade Tata Raphael, Grand Hotel, Showbuzz, etc.

I was talking about people from Kinshasa not knowing much about music coming from Brazzaville and the artists from Brazzaville not being able to give sold out concerts in Kinshasa and almost never performing there , while those of Kinshasa perform often in Brazzaville and often give sold out concerts. This create alot of jealousy among the artists of Brazzaville, seeing artists from Kinshasa being paid with alot of money if they have to perform for private vip concerts and big events in Brazzaville with those artists indirectly often attacking their journalists and djs for that and saying that they must not promote music from Kinshasa anymore in Brazza. I remember that back in 80s, Youlou Mabiala wanted to forbid music from Kinshasa in Brazzaville because of that. In the song Musicien of Roga Roga, his singer Rav4 made a little attack in his vocal against his compatriots about music from Kinshas a having priority in parties.from 4:23 min
