He was asked when was his first contact with music he said in 81  as an amateur but 9 years after it became their full time job
he was asked who he was fan of he said the group zaiko as a whole he loved them all but he had a special admiration for papa wemba he wanted to be like him to do like him and his best memories from papa wemba is when he came to sing cavalier solitaire with him with no conditions and he remembers papa wemba's advice from before they became a big force papa wemba told them if they want to succeed in music they have to love what they are doing and give their best
he was asked about the story behind kin e bouger and he said that a producer came to kin to bring them to europe as there was high demand for them but the visas were fake so they got arrested him werra and makaba and from then in their days of jail/custody he got the inspiration to do kin e bouger
jb also said  his personal best memory as an artist was at olympia when receiving disque d'or it was special for him
he was asked what wenge brought according to him in congolese music,he said they brought a new vibe a new way of doing music which  helped them make their generation dream and of course the style of ndombolo
he was asked if he could go back in time,what would he remove in his career and he said wenge4X4 split,because even if it helps them blossom personally wenge 4X4 was a big family they were spending a lot of time and being very close(i can already imagine my guy prince saying  if he thinks like that then he should push for wenge4X4 reunions :D :D :D)

About JB saying that he regrets Wenge's split and that family spirit they used to have, made me think what Blaise Bula said about him and Werrason not having friends anymore and being lonely.

I feel like they are not giving Adolphe much respect and playing with him. Adolphe always going to JB's big events and parties, but JB not going to those of Adolphe.

LOOOL am I that predictable?? I was gonna say that as well  :D ;D
But it’s true. Jb is a funny guy, if you miss them then do a reunion, Werra would probably be up for it nowadays.
The thing with Werra to get close to him again someone has to die for you to make peace with him again, just look at him and Jb at Madilu’s funeral, him and Adolphe at one of Adolphes parents funeral, him and Baby at Lutumba’s funerals, him and Heritier at Mampata’s mothers funeral.

Werra and Blaise still aren’t cool and haven’t sorted out their issues yet?? Jesus.

they had but blaise was very hurt that werra was among the front guys of the movement claiming blaise stole money at socoda while blaise had actually invested his money and just took it back,ever since that whenever they meet its cold,my brother told me last year that they meet at birthday of an authority and sat on left and right of him but barely gave each other a look for the whole party after giving each other a shy salute
there is also an interview of them in the "consultations nationales" or whatever it was back then being interview next to each other a bit awkwardly

With JB Mpiana appearing in Skip-Skip, does this mean that we will Balle de Match very soon? My wildest dream right now is JB Mpiana going to Brussels to appear in Ado Yuhe's show.

maybe,whats certain is that if i am not mistaken thats jb's first appearance in media in europe since his failed zenith 8 years ago while sometimes he came 10 times in a year in europe,it could be an indication indeed

by the way taking about jb and tata jb does actually go to tata events(i can remember two times one going at tata's rehearsal with seguin playing voyage and another at a concert where ali mbonda also visited tata, just that tata does not have concerts as often as jb in a normal time,and jb indeed did miss that fikin of tonya tonya anniiversary where tata was making his promo about werra and jb being there
maybe like marie paul said in one of his interviews,tata goes more to jb than the opposite because it actually gives him more exposure while jb going to tata's shows could outshine tata
