He said he arrived there though his friend chibida,and there was late fiston bass from maison mere reserve and edino and then later on when lacoste arrived he brought with him current bcbg bassist kalo bass,so as soon as they recorded affaire tonya tonya he felt that it would be complicated if he stays in the band for long because 4 bassists and some started taking it spiritual to cement the main spot
he also talked about his test in maison mere,his time with werra,his collaboration with fally and ferre despite their rivalry and so on

It was for Michel just better to say that he doesn't know the reason why Mimiche why stayed in Europe instead of coming with the Zenith-speculation. Because running away for these reason doesn't make sense. Mimiche himself said in different interviews just after his second departure in 2011, that he stayed in Europe, because he got poisoned and prefered to follow medical treatment instead of returning back to Kinshasa. He also said that after he got married in France during the Double Zenith-tour, his ex'wife asked to Werrason if he could stay in Europe to get long termspapers, but Werrason refused..

Thinking about what Michel said about Double Zenith. It makes sense why the bass was that strong on day II. I would like to hear Flamme version about Double Zenith and why his guitar wasn't audible on day I.


When did Fiston pass away, because its for years that former Maison Mère and Tonya Tonya musicians say that he passed away. But I had never seen a message or video about it. Also what became of Edino ? It's not surprise that a spiritual warfare came into Wenge Tonya Tonya for the bass-position. Because both Fiston and Edino came from Wenge Maison Mère and missed out for Bercy while being already around before Mimiche joined. I don't remember which person it was. But someone said in an interview that when Maison Mère was preparing Bercy and Kibuisa Mpimpa at Joli Parc, that Werrason chased Fiston away, after he scaried Mimiche by suddenly letting appearing a cat, when handing over his bass-guitar to him.
