The guy that uploaded the video just mixed the footage of Sur la Route de Bercy, where they were singing Victoire with the original videoclip

Yeah I know, it’s a good mix though. Because I wasn’t a fan of how he didn’t show the singers in the original clip like he always did.

I'm guessing Koffi didn't have enough time to put together the clips for Attentat, because the musicians are only in person for the following clips:





I'm assuming right after the album finished recording in the August of 1999, Koffi is preparing the group for Bercy which is four months after they return from South Africa. If I'm not mistaken, didn't the group meet Koffi in Europe? He wasn't in Kinshasa long after the they finished the album because of the world songs had to be recorded and the final mix was in Paris?

I don’t believe that Koffi hadn’t enough time for putting Attentat clips together. If there was an artist that was taking recording videoclips seriously in Congo, then it’s Koffi Olomidé (not counting Droit de Veto). I suspect that Koffi was influenced by one or more staffmember to not put his singers alot in videoclips, in order to not give them to much light, having  them already promoted alot in the VHS’ of Sur La Route de Bercy & Droit de Veto. Because Attentat was the first solo-album of Koffi where QL-members had alot vocals. They had solo vocals in 6 songs (Victoire, Malanda Ngombe, Number One, Kamutshuma, Cameleon and Nul n’est Parfait) and were not being limited anymore of singing in just 2 or 3 songs in his solo-albums. Witg Koffi just selecting Claudine AC Milan and the new recruited dancers for the clips




In the VHS “Les Clips- 1ère partie”, which had the videosclips recorded in Kinshasa, you had the singers only in the generique. But in the VHS “Mokonzi” which the videoclips recorded after Bercy, you had the singers in all the clips where they had vocals. The only problem being that singers like Soleil Wanga and Spino La Djatence were left behind in Kinshasa and Depitcho having left in the time that they were still recording the clips (only appearing in Nul n’est Parfait and Cameleon), which made guys like Binda Bass, CNN and Champion playbacking and acting like them doing those vocals.



The recordings of Attentat in South Africa were in sept. 1999 just after participating to the Kora Awards as performer. Koffi went 3 or 4 times back to Kinshasa in between. He mostly joined Quartier Latin from France in African countries like Cameroon, etc. Then shortly after the release he came back to do a show to present Attentat at Intercontinental, the famous reconciliation with Werrason, few concerts and fully prepare Bercy and going with the dancers and Mustapha, two or three weeks prior the Bercy-show (Quartier Latin went before  him, because Koffi missed the flight twice)

On average, which albums are faster to record to completion is it group albums or solo albums? It definitely helps that the group like Wenge, Quartier Latin, and Extra Musica dedicate days to private repetition where they practice 1ere versions of songs that make the album – sometimes the rehearsals are just with acoustic guitars and bass, but mostly with electric instruments.

Before creation of 5eme solo artist, you could manage 4-5 years in a group before you're ousted because of money or leadership issues. After Fally and Ferre, a lot of their best known members can only average 2-3 years... it's crazy how talent slips away so quickly with of younger band leadership.

It doesn't matter. There's no any difference, because if the boss wants the album group or solo-album to be released in december 2025, they will do all their best to do it.  Also before 2006, it were mostly group-albums that were getting released, the boss having 3, 4 or sometimes even 6 songs and the rest being shared between singers. Solo-albums were rare. It was only Koffi who was releasing solo-albums every 2 years with a group-album in between

Today, artists have 3-4 years between albums but the quality isn't like before. You'd think with more time in between each project would benefit the songwriting and musicianship, but I guess the money doesn't inspire the motivation like before.
