he says conflicts are bad for congolese music and he has forgiven koffi ,and that what we need is unity in order to bring congolese music forward
so,unlike in the past when he said he would not  write for another artist,he has changed his mind and is willing to write for others should they ask him

Karmapa is developing a good road towards taking Congo back to the music powerhouse of Africa. I hopehis mesage does fall to the ears of his comrades in the Music Industry.

I really don't get people say there's too much Rhumbas in Congolese music and there needs to be more sebene in sings but all Le Karmapa does is Rhumbas. Congolese music went and is going far with their music which is rhumba and sebene, it just depends on people's taste. I like both sebene and rhumba but there needs to be more sebene songs which is coming back for the younger artists because Fally is doing sebene songs in his upcoming group album. So when that happens the rest will follow Fally ( as always because he's the leader) and do sebene songs.
Or moto asala le monde eza yo Nzambe tata, Kita okata po mokili trop matata, kata- Fally Ipupa

You have a lot of catching up to do. There's a big difference between the ballads like Fally does and the rhumba that the like of Karmapa do, it's totally different. To make it easier for you to understand, each song should carry a message that sticks out, it shouldn't just be about love especially some man or woman crying for her lover to come back which is what the likes of Fally and his generation do. I have told you this in other responses too.

Sly non Lingala speakers wouldn't know the difference of lyrics between a love song or a non love song it's all about the rhythm,melody and good singers.

You're right, they can't understand but they can tell that the arrangement of the song is bullshit as they can compare with others songs and tell If a song is strange.

Maybe, its because he does not spend time on TV in polemics and would rather spend time  writing /making his music while touching young girls thighs... in videos

Karmapa's (studio) songs are good until you hear him try to sing live...then you'll understand why rhumba heads are not booking him.

That can be a good reason, with all due respect to Le Karmapa(who makes good rhumbas)  is a faux chanteur but then again Werra and Felix Wazekwa are not the best of singers but have a huge fanbase and succesfull songs and albums....maybe it's because they play better sebene then Le Karmapa.
