Which artist?

No wonder that he did everything to get late Verckys Kiamuanga out from Socoda, while the last one put him as interim head. From than a big war started between Verckys and Nyoka Longo which made even Verckys health issues worser until he died. Socoda is a goldmine and everybody wants to get his part from it. Blaise Bula doesn't have any right to talk, because himself used also to steal money when was in power. If it was in Europe they would have put him back on his place, but since its Congo you can always make a comeback even if you are a big thief

Where do this money usually come from? Like how do Congolese artists get Royalties? Man it is sad, imagine how much professional Congo Market will be if there wasn't this sport of robbing and having all by myself? The ironic part is that I bet that Ya Jossart oays his musicians peanuts and get mad when they ask more right?

The money comes from taxes that bars, clubs, restaurants, hotels and televisions in Congo pay from the music they play. Just the way it happens in Europe. Its not alot because its mostly focused on Kinshasa and most hotels, bars, clubs and televsions are not really fair in paying those taxes. Imagine if they were receiving  money from Katanga, Kivu, Kongo Central, Kasai, etc. That would quickly go into billions. However, the small amount Socoda receive is still money and they receive it they steal it and  peannuts being giving to artists they like, other receiving nothing and x times in the years them sharing chicken and rice to artists who are afflited there. I remember some years back some artists complaining why Manda Chante was receiving alot of money while his music is barely played compared to late Madilu and late Pepe Kalle.

Congolese bandleaders receive money from SACEM (France) others from SABAM since the 80s. After that Tabu Ley wrote them in the late 80s a letter that Soneca wasn't fair and most Congolese bandleaders who were often coming to France getting afflieted there.
