I know Serge's (aka Binda) family in Lemba. Both parents are from Cabinda (Angola). Maybe that someone of Koffi's family married in Serge's family.

Blanchard was stupid to rejoin Quartier Latin while he was about to tour in Europe with Zaiko and became the chef de repetition. Rocky then ended up by not going to Olympia with Quartier Latin, not even having a visa for the Schengen-area.

Lebou was one of Koffi's favorite back in 1994, but their relation changed after Mboyo's death when Koffi said some nasty things to his girlfriend. He participated on the Loi-album, but their relation was still so/so and some other things happened in meantime. Somono had a love-hate relation with Koffi after the end of his relationship with Nono Makosso and Somono almost joined Zaiko.

There was a huge list of QL-musicians who wanted to join Zaiko. Pathy Bass (because he didnt like the way Koffi was liking Binda Bass more than him), Somono, Modogo, etc. Koffi once promised Dolce Somono a car after their concert in Libreville, because of the way he animated it, saying that he's happy that Somono didn't join Zaiko.

If I had to guess, Binda's family ties to Koffi definately played a huge role in the second chance he got with Bercy of 2000 but the reserve bassists weren't making it easy for Koffi to replace and forget him.

Rocky Blanchard is the arguably the best bass player Koffi ever had, but he couldn't remain with QL despite his participation on Attentat and supposively having a close relationship to Koffi. Despite playing bass on all the sebenes on Attentat and given the first half of Bercy setlist to play, Clovis remained in Europe rather than returning to Kinshasa to release Force de Frappe. People forget how many musicians Koffi lost after Bercy; that probably convinced him to promote hose who remained. Just a theory...

It was Clovis Silawuka who played all bass on Attentat. Rocky Blanchard was punished for having a relationship with a dancer which made Koffi furious.

Koffi restarted promoting Binda Bass in Europe when Clovis was still around. He even gave Binda then the opportunity to record a song in Force de Frappe, called Au Secours. Clovis then left after their last concert in Paris (LSC), they gave him only 1 minute to play bass towards the end of the concert.

Is that dancer Miette Shegue?

Miette Shegue was married to Savanet Depitcho and had a child with him (Suriya) who received some shout-outs in Droit de Veto. She appeared in the videoclip of Rond Point, but joined Wenge BCBG shortly after that, because she used often to fight with Depitcho during rehearshals.

How on earth did they both survive in the band if they were married? Look what happened with somono and Nono or Willy Bula and Jacky bebeto

Miette was pregnant of Depitcho when he used still to be in Wenge El Paris. Koffi then became the godfather of that child and even gave her the name Suriya. Miette stopped with dancing after giving birth and they lived with Depitcho in Kasa-Vubu or Bon Marche (i don't remember). After that Depitcho decided to leave Wenge El Paris and when Koffi heard about it he asked him if he could join Quartier Latin and Depitcho accepting the offer. After the Olympia-tour when Quartier Latin returned to Kinshasa, Miette Shegue decided to restart her career as dancer in Quartier Latin. But Depitcho was against it and it resulted often in fights at home and during rehearshals (she has even a little scar on her face, because of those fights). So Koffi said then that one of them had to leave or he will just pick one to stay in Quartier Latin.Koffi then decided to pick Depitcho over Miette Shegue. Miette Shegue was very dissapointed, because contributed alot of Quartier Latin beside dancing, so she decided then to join Wenge BCBG with Nono Ba Diamants also following her some weeks later. Miette Shegue started then to date Alain Mpela, but Depitcho was still loving her. So one day it was Suriya first birthday and whole Wenge BCBG came to vist Miette Shegue to party with her, then when the party was finished everybody went to home with Alain Mpela then staying at her home. But when Alain Mpela was about to sleep with her Depitcho arrived at home and it resulted in a big fight with Alain Mpela running away lol. Mpela and Depitcho also fought against eachother in a nightclub just before Bercy.

I can't stop imagine the scene with Alain Mpela running away hahahaha

@masatomo

Mpela wanted no physical fight with Depitcho lmao

If you think Binda Bass had amazing patience, did you hear about Poumpa Mystique? That dude was recruited since Effrakata, but sat idle for nearly five years until Danger de Mort!

I don't know how they manage, I would have been so demoralized watching my band members return with BMWs and I'm barely getting space to play at rehearsals lol
