That's very humilating to be washed naked by your grandmother everyday in front of your mother. Was that interview of JB holding the young Heritier ever released on VHS ? I'm looking for it, because everybody is talking about that. I didn't like Zaiko's Zenith. I saw it as the worst Zenith ever in the history of Congolese music. I thought that he would talk about his song Ngoma, which was a tribute-song to all Zaiko-members who passed away. It made him get the award of best 3th atalaku of the year (Nyoka Longo credited that song to himself, he's a big thief).Those times were really difficult for the Zaiko-members. You are on tour, but then your boss got suddenly arrested and you have then to find a place to live and get money.
yeah it would be hard because werra did not feel celeo a lot,i think if even genta was a pure tenorist he would have been in duet with his friend bill when bidjana moved,if i remember well bidjana had his test before that but he was not yet confirmed in the group,just like celeo in the days of the ferre's test in salongo he was tested and told to give his name to mbuta kiss but did not remain in the groupmaybe because of aspect,even back in the aimelia caludji entrance werra was preferring babia but babia did not come that day and it was caludji's chance with the fact he could do animation

@Manzambi94N'Yoka Longo got into some trouble with Belgium authorities for sponsoring illegal immigrants during his European tour, but was able to post bail and return to Kinshasa.

Nyoka Longo hadn't money, like Papa Wemba it was the Congolese governement who bailed him out. It took him 3 years to finish the case and he couldn't return to Kinshasa. In the meantime people were saying that Zaiko was finished. Then Andre Kimbuta (who's a huge Zaiko-fan) wanted to get him back in Kinshasa and Oncle Bapius who rejoined in Kinshasa started to recruit musicians along with Lola Muana who also joined. After 3 years Nyoka Longo came finally back along with Shulay and Doudou Adoula after 7 years of absence. But it took time to get Zaiko's fame back.
