You are right. Werrason was not impressed by all guys tested since Makaba left but somehow had to settle for Yamukolo and Van Vedes as there was an immediate vacuum. During rehearsals he pays so much attention to how the soloists perform. He would actually even stand next to him. Fans have also been putting pressure on him as they feel WMMM is known for good Soloists. This is why he has reopened the auditions. They are practically  even head hunting now.

My question to you colleagues is that whom would you recommend they head hunt?

@Nkosi, totally unrelated......who is that 'new' vocalist who sings almost like Michigan and does Fabregas parts. He sings Likambo in the 24/4/2024 rehearsal from minute 33.59

With due honesty, Sarah Solo is not that good to the WMM level. Good on rhumbas but not sebene. She's ain't that creative too.

I agree with you here. But do you think she’s better than the current guy(Ya makulu-forgot his name)and the ones recently tested

I disagree, she really didn't have time to develop and show her skills, cause one she was a woman so shebwas already facing discrimination by her colleagues and two cause Makaba was trying in every way to make her quit which she actually did, about creatività tbh Makaba was stealing/reinterpreting a lot of guitar partitions like Muselu from Japonais and also the Ya Ngiama Coach from Debarquement cries of Emeneya, when he actually tried to make his creations (Ko Beta Kayi, etc) it was really basic and notnonoar of WMM either





08:28 isnthe sane exact riff of Ya Ngiama Coach




06:54

Plus she is way better then the new guys and she had the experience to being able to play even other songs/old songs which I don't think the new guys will have, Ndombolo music isn't like in the past anymore where everybody wanted to be the next Kapaya people now want to be the leader of their own band or just be like Innoss being a one man show surrounded by dancers who helps him perform, so it is extremely hard to find a serious guitarist who won't run away and tbh Werra should stop giving Kakol, Hugo Synthe and others so much power over his band, because this method haven't been working,welost very good guys who could sing well and really cared about the group, for guys who just like Kakol's behind to get promoted  and then what? The quality of the music get lost, peoole have spoken about Fally's Europe tour, Ferre's Double tour, even of Roga Roga going to France to perform at the Casino du Paris, but when was the last time you have heard about Werra? Even JB who was seen the laziest now gets his new music (Zebuka mianly) played in parties, but with Werra is just the Bill & Celeo or the Brigade and Lobeso and occasionali Diego and Prince music you hardly hear any song made in the period of ambulance, Bercy etc. Why? Cuase the spiritual of Wenge got lost and money and favouritism prevaled over raw talent

Sarah stayed for many years and was given a lot of time in concerts but she wasn't that good. To me Ya Mukolo is better as he can literally play all Maison Mere songs and partitions.  I like how Werrason keeps correcting him and how he has adapted to play much better.

However the recently tested guy to me is on another level and matches Kapaya/Mboka Liya. His interpretation of sous soul was 'studio' perfect.

And Vedes Solo is the understudy on MISolo.

And he seems to have that goofy side werra likes from his soloist i am sure if werra refines his look a bit and makes him fully adjust to the pace of all the songs he might now have got what he was looking for

The guy was recruited and already joined the first team. He was exchanging on misolo during rehearsals with Van Vedes.

On animators, I agree with Archos Jamaica and Golberg were so relaxed but I'm happy that we now have Wasabo who has literally pushed Golbert aside and is giving Jamaica headache. He can also do all Bill Clinton's parts so well as he speaks the language fluently.

@Nkosi
Which guitarist are you referring to here? Any videos of the guy in Mi-solo?
