It isn't too much the problem is that  the song is mixed poorly and the Bass clearly towers over other Instruments covering the guitar giving a bad Mixing to a very good song if the mixiing was ok the sound would have been great but that what happens when you don't have a proper studio Mixing probably the studio guy got told to put Bass as the main instrument but clearly fucked up the levels

i think its lofombo himself the sound engineer and surely he set it like that on purpose so that bass kinda plays "second solo" role
late sunda bass used to do that aswell at times so that people can really feel the way he plays along with the animation well, but it would make lead guitar sound a bit weak

It was recorded at Lofombo's studio in Bumbu.

Lofombo's way of playing bass is different from other bassplayers. I likes often to let his bass-guitar talk by following the animations atalaku's make. I already started to do that often in Empire Bakuba and when he became solo they had the total freedom to do it in all his singles and albums

For someone who is highly regarded I would of thought he would know better before releasing this crap. The video alone says it all.

Howcome he has little funds? I thought be lived in Europe and had good money from all those session as a session bassist for leaders? How come he is well I don't want to desrespect him but there is no other term I can use, how come is he broke?

because he is often conned by artists that he works for,they'll say that they pay him at the end of the work and they pay way less that they should
he accepts to work with them out of passion and even gives his studio for free  for days for example when there is a common song of several artists but when governement releases money to pay them his name is erased,there has been war about that for years between two groups
 the lions werra reddy tshala muana wazekwa jossart and co vs the leopards lofombo adricha tipo tipo sampaio and co and the lions being by a countrymile more popular and more powerful they like to take the money for themselves and fight among themselves about it
which is why for example of late adricha and lofombo have approached wazekwa so that he does mediation between both camps since he is close to both so that the money is shared better
imagine he even went back to family home to avoid rent issues because the income he gets is not proportional to his efforts

I don't want to desrespect this man again but... Oyo Kindoki te? Why repeatedly working with a person who showed you how bad they were? I mean I can get being fooled once but multiple times? If he was in Europe or if he stood on his ground he would be not a millionaire but very well off

Most session artists in Europe are paid peannuts. Like just 100 euro and if its alot 300 euro to participate as drummer, guitarist, percussionist or bass-player on an album. Its only when the concert-ban started that some started to open their eyes and sign themselves up for SACEM, Spedidam, etc. Olivier Tshimanga gave this as a reason why he stopped playing on multiple albums.

yeahh i remember he said in an old interview that ferre was the first kin artist ever to pay him over 300 for an album the way he did some bass and arrangement on QQJD,they promise him up to 2000 3000 but when he has to get paid they give order to bodyguards that they are not home and things like that repeatedly until he loses patience over time and just moves on
i believe he once got angry and tried to sue one artist but a powerful general stepped in and scared him
having most of his children being quite old(some already in final university years) if you have to pay for everything that super corrupt educational system bothers you with all year long you have to be on constant debt if your income is not enough,i am sure thats why he swallowed his pride to go back to bumbu in family house
