Today it's 25 years ago that JB Mpiana performed at Bercy. Looking back at the event, was the backlash, criticism and all the hate that JB Mpiana after the show  justified ? What do y'all think about the shows of Congolese artists that came after it (Papa Wemba, Fally Ipupa and Ferre Gola) ? Did they manage to equal or surpass JB Mpiana's show ? Also y'all believe that JB Mpiana will be able to equal or surpass his Bercy-show of 2001 ?

The sound of the VHS version was so underwhelming the CD version was much better. How did they mess up like that?

I don’t think anyone after corrected his concert but I also don’t think JB corrected Koffi’s Bercy, in fact none of them did!
I don’t know if Jb’s will surpass the 2001 Bercy because he had a better line up then like a prime Alain Mpela, Les Pipiyu even the old guard were better back then.

what i love about the 4 early bercy's is that its literally 4 different concerts,you dont get  a similar feeling and this what is great
in terms of sound,the papa wemba due to less crowd offered the least work to do in editing/going back to studio and so on
