Where did the solist Pitshou Hahare go? from 7:17 min

Also were was the main song 11eme Commandement of Chemin de Fer about ? Was about to advice youngsters to not live behind women and people, stop begging and working or was it a song like Reddy's Bomengo ata Kala ? Its a shame that we still not haven heard any full extract on live, because its already 20 years that people are waiting for that song.

last i heard a long time ago was that he went to east africa,he should have been to bercy but i am sure some ngulu paid mbuta kiss to change his case,then he got unlucky with the arrival  rise of pathy moleso who jb instantly trusted to handle sebene despite himself saying he is not good at it,then by the time him and patou solo where trying to force some way into first team again mbokaliya returned

JB Mpiana is here saying that they will come 2 weeks before the show to work on the stage, lights, etc. But what made the stage just being normal, was the budget not big enough to have a special stage? The way BCBG talked alot before Bercy made me think that the concert would be better than Zenith.

Looks like JB couldn't handle that Werrason had a bigger fanbase than him. In 2001 he complained indirectly alot about it.

 and you know that its due to that reputation he had after the misunderstood sentence about batu ya ba quartier populaire,and also his team he had as starters ,
i think its lack of funds indeed but also that bercy was particular compared to others in the sense that it was not  the standard  promoter artist deal a lot of people were involved to make the concert even happen
until today jb is not too satisfied about the concert ,he always says that it looks rushed compared to zenith especially
 story repeats itself since generation zaiko bro,its always heartbreaking for those who were or were seen as the most talented singer to see the less talented become more popular so they have to insist on their talent

Oh didn't knew it. Badive needs then to stop bragging that he organised JB's Bercy by himself. But why had it a lot of people involved?
Couldn't they find a proper concert-promoter like Werrason who had Yann or Koffi Olomide ? Or was it they quickly planned a date for the next Europe-tour to prove Werrason a point, that they could also perform at Bercy? I remember that the event at Bercy was almost cancelled, because they hadn't paid the full amount of the rent, but some donors collected some money and the Maison Mere camp mocking JB for it saying "JB performing at Bercy with money of sangisa-sangisa".


Also was the tour after Bercy orginally meant to record Chemin de Fer ?

Whatever happened to "Chemin de Fer"

It's been stuck in developmental hell for 20 years. He did announce its potential release twice in 2005 and 2009, but nothing came to fruition and it was supplanted by Kipé Ya Yo and Soyons Serieux respectively.

I don't think it even deserves the title Developmental Hell, it's just pure laziness. We're all probably gonna be dead by the time Chemin de Fer ever sees the light of day. 20 years of excuses, just let that sink in.

It had  a lot of people involved because they did not want to use promoters who worked with nsone and koffi already because he feared his plans being leaked or their influence playing(you can for example see wazekwa doing olympia himself for kinda similar reasons later) so they decided to set it up  with jb and the big donors cardozo,tatu hilaire and co and badive just gave a boost to the process, jb dreamt very big for that concert so his demand was crazy i think he is until today the only artist who ever performed in france with 3 groups  coming from kinshasa who all belong to him plus the ngulu he had to add
they had the possibilty to postpone it a bit to take more time but  it would have been a shame for them competition wise to take "too long"
yes it was  originally that plan recording chemin de fer and starting  anti terro with the ppu songs, and they actually did the full pre records of chemin de fer in europe like moleso said 

badive came along with the license and some additional support to make things happen

Whatever happened to "Chemin de Fer"

its been stuck  in "stubborness hell" like balle de match,jb is very difficult with his choice,imagine that his home studio recods quality like elga and correction but he still feels the need to always take the songs to europe for whatever extra work
few days ago my brother was telling me that they were  songs away from  having 100 recorded  songs on which jb wakes up then finds its not good enough then he has to go change whatever in europe  even if he takes 6 months to go to europe again
every single song jb released since internet to his name were either in chemin de fer 1,chemin de fer 2, 3 or 4
