Did Koffi erase some parts of Beevans animation in V12 to replace it by his ? I started wondering when listening to Andrada today. There's a point where Koffi animates and Beevans suddenly screams "Jean-Marie Mulatto 10 sur 10" and starting a cri

Beevans style is to do cri's and them often ending them with shout-out or a shot. So because of that I was wondering if Beevans did animation on V12 on his own and Koffi ending up by erasing it, because of getting  the knowledge of the cri/dance Mandundu of late Shora Mbemba that was fire at that time while Quartier Latin already being in Kinshasa and already finished the recordings of V12 or was it because of Beevans not really being convincing like on Magie  ?

Koffi nothing having finished the animation and Beevans screaming Jean Marie Mulatto.

Yeah it's seen as Koffi's best solo album. Today is btw the 29th anniversary of the album release. The succes of this album made him tour in various countries of Africa. He also received many trophies for it at the AfriCar Awards in Ivory Coast '96

I feel like innovation/rhythm wise, Koffi didn't do his best anymore after this album. Because in the upcoming albums, songs would have cousins of Fouta Djallon and in some extent also new Etat Civil's next to the relatives of songs from previous albums. For example, Papito Charme from Loi is just like Etat Civil and Sans Anesthesie of Attentat is just like Fouta Djallon. Which not bad, but before it he would come at least 2 new rhythms on every album
