i will give an example of those type of reactions,when i was in ferré's staff, he received an official invitation from jb to be at the concert celebrating his 42nd birthday,which also marked the official return of his wife amida,but he was reluctant to go there and the most influent members( most are in the current base solide)convinced him not to go there because it was "ferré's time" as the new leader of congolese music and it was not good being seen next to some older artists who have already peaked and are more or less on downfall because ferre's presence would revive jb's career or something like that
i told hervé ,one day you'll regret(and like i have said earlier i left them soon after)
there are so many examples like that in congolese music,i just cant list the number of young guys who snubbed zaiko's invitation to concerts because they would give "power" to past-it ya jossart
