Did JB Mpiana indirectly declared war against Papa Wemba by "stealing" Wemba's concert-date of Bercy ? Where Wemba was meant to perform at 22 september, his staff and concertpromoter JDK Decor slowly preparing it, but JB's staff quickly claiming that date, which angered the people around Wemba.
In the same period when returning to Kinshasa, singer Bogus got recruited, while the previous year, Wemba's staff and Mere Malou called JB to not recruit his as punition for leaving Nouvelle Ecriture. Few months later, the dancers Mina and Anya Star got recruited by JB Mpiana. Anya explained once an interview that she was approched by Monica Celeste and another dancer, who asked her if she would like to join Wenge BCBG. Another thing, in the interviews JB made in the period of 2001-2002, he wasn't praising his idol Papa Wemba anymore like he used to do in the past and when being asked about him, he would say that it is time for elders that to understand that their time is over.
It was already said that Wemba and JB were on bad terms in 2000 and people claiming that Wemba tried to become close to Werrason, but Werrason being distant to him, Mere Malou starting openly supporting Werrason (I dont know of it was Wemba's order or for the way how she, Evelyne Ngongolo and Pepe Akundji got badly received to one Europe trip of JB before TH and being said that they first have to ask for an interview to Titina, Mpela and Calugi before meating JB, because of him being Souverain 1er) and all who were behind Wemba going towards Werra and those who refused, staying with JB and not being with Wemba anymore (Asha Movoto for example) except Shaguy Sharufa. What was the real reason of the tensions ? songi-songi of the staff, sidecicks ? Also is what Shaguy Sharufa said about JB during her interview with late Bolowa Bonzakwa after her testimony true ?
