How much dollars was 5000Zaire worth in 1983 ? Because Zinga says that musicians of Victoria Eleison were payed like that by Veve. It must piss the generation of Sampaio and co off who were getting nothing, but that was not the same Victoria Eleison anymore like the one of 1982-1990.

I just found on Google, in 1983 on the exchange rates of the Zaire currency, a dollar equal to 30 Zaire, I think that 5000 Zaire equal approximately 170 dollars

Everyone knew Ado would not be the guy to interview this legend. I want to see Djudjuchet go on another platform and explain his story properly from start to finish.

What is the name of the guy with dreads who does those instagram interviews? He would be a better interviewer it seems that with him everybody get really comfortable. They do it with Ado too but

Lodia H20, he's normally a MC and atalaku. Musicians of the 4th and 5th generation suit him better, to interview guys of the 2nd and 3th generation would be difficult for him, since that information of that era is rare and it takes a lot of time to get documented if you aren't from that era.


I already said Lodia is doing a better job then Ado and he usually asks questions that everyone wants to know. After this pandemic is over I’d strongly Advise him to start his own platform and continue interviewing people.

Getting 170 dollars back then is like 600/700 dollars today in Kin. You have take into account inflation,

This was a good salary.

People like DjuDjuChet or Popolipo should be interviewed by Marcel Landu.

Ado Yuhe is very limited when interviewing those legends. If you listen well to the interview, Zinga gave him indirectly multiple occasions to ask questions to go further. But Ado didn't take those opportunities. For example how the original Victoria Eleison of les 12 apotres used to be and how Emeneya managed to made it a band of his own, when Zinga talked about the way Denewade showed the contract that Emeneya said with Veve in front of Santana Mongoley and Debaba in Brazzaville, which made both guys furious and Debaba form his own band Historia Musica with Historia Musica (I remember watching an interview of Emeneya in 2000, where he was still mad about that and saying "Ba Debaba wana, lelo akoma frere" looking furious). Also Ado often cut him when he was about to go something important. There was a point where he said that Verckys asked him why Manuaku Waku let him go to Victoria Eleison, after him hearing drumming on the song Benedictions and was about to explain why he left Grand Zaiko Wawa but suddenly Ado went to cut him. Also when he was about to talk to Tofolo Kitoko's (R.I.P.) importance in Victoria Eleison (I'm sure that Ado doesn't even know him).
Lol. Ado has sort of rehearsed the questions he asks these musicians from: How did you join the group? Did you use to get paid? How many albums did you play in while in a group? And now he has introduced the who is and what is being an author and composer and then ask about the acoustics then ends with what's your future project. All the while focusing on just one group that someone seemingly made a name neglecting the other groups. Am pretty sure the day he will welcome Mboka Liya it will just be about Wenge BCBG neglecting for example his time or barely touching on his time in Original Wenge, Big Star and Maison Mere. A journalists who can't ask follow up questions most likely doesn't do research before an interview. Which is sad coz he has a big platform to become more respected if he atleast went an extra mile with his interviewing skills.
