As anyone with clear sight can see, Koffi is a the end of his career. He's forcing everything to stay relevant when he could just retire and let the next generation continue. His best days were the 90s and early 2000s. Why is this man torturing himself with endless defeats?

Why is it only in Congo we ask for our legends to retire. He doesn’t have to retire.

For real he doesn’t need to retire and he’s still very much relevant and he still does put out good music here and there.

Thank you. I see Americans and uk legends touring even and no one asking for them to retire but  in Congo we want ours to retire early as if is a Monday to Friday job 😂

If the retirement suggestion is based on the music he has been releasing then I guess 95% of the musicians in Congo should retire cause really they haven’t been any mouthwatering projects in the recent years. Koffi still got it cause really there isn’t any competition.

Unfortunately, don’t know. Personally i want Blana, Heritier and Ibrator to suceed. I hope one of Ferre Jet Set guys could get a solo career.

We can't blame the country for this. This is on Koffi himself ans his HUGE ego.

Koffi should bow dow gracefully, like Bozi and them did when they understood that it was over.

Koffi is risking to have a very pitiful end of career.

Not retiring, Koffi has a huge catalog and he can tour with it or whatever.

But his days as one of the top, dog are gone, but he refused to believe it and he keeps fighting with young bulls.

If he really wants to remain in the race, he should produce one his musician, but he refuse to do that.

There's no other quick way to gain money, buy new cars and build houses, accepting 30k or 50k from fans/donors that dream to have a song dedicated to them on the market. Should he refuse it if there are more than 10 ? Bozi Boziana who's 73 old and also has a big catalogue, keeps releasing new albums and performing, but why is nobody attacking him ? Why is nobody attacking Nyoka Longo who's 71 years old and about to release an EP with his band ?

People need to stop blaming Koffi, people need to blame the new generation for not being able to release good albums and songs, being only focused on insulting rivals, their family-members and exposing their private-life. The way people keep dancing on Papa Mobimba during weddings and parties like it's a new generique, already show how incapable the new generation is in producing proper generique's. If we were in 2005, people would have forgotten Koffi like the way Papa Wemba went on the background in the mid 2000s. But Koffi is lucky to live an era where good music is basically death.

The same people that wants him to retire, will be the first to mock him being finished like the way people did to Emeneya and Papa Wemba, when they were alive

Exactly well said. You guys all need to leave Koffi alone.
