Interesting... he used to be very protective and not publicize his family. He has all his buddies involved of course. Controversies aside, its rare a musician stays on top this long, in any genre.


13eme Apotre is on the charts for World music at the moment. Selfie on pace to be a bigger single than Original and Mascara. Tough times for us enthusiasts of the good stuff.



Maybe with the cash raked in he can get himself a real Rolls. ;D

Yeah as much a lot of criticized him for the way he's done things post BEK he's still managed to stay on top in Africa. Lol yeah I was thinking the same thing, he has a nice house,clothes, cars but that  fake Rolls Royce just puts it all down, it doesn't look good at all. It's embarrassing for someone of his stature to have that, I'm pretty sure that he will make a lot of money from 13ieme Apotre sales, revenue from that album has already reached a million.

He has done well for himself but at a huge cost including loss of friendship with people that helped him in his foundation years as a musician.

His immense contribution to the congolese music industry cannot be ignored ,he has been a mentor to many including the current most popular and on demand artist from Congo ,Fally Ipupa who has taken the world by storm.

It truly looks like that "Selfie" song is catching on all because selfies are trending so its something everyone relates to,its good strategy!

Regarding the Rolls Royce, critics are probably right, that car he owns isn't an original Rolls Royce but a converted Chrysler 300 large luxury vehicle which is very cheap compared to premium brands like Mercedes, Jaguar or even Rolls Royce itself which is for top of the top but who cares, that Mercedes Benz next to it is damn expensive too, a good used one,like 2005 is about £55,000 on the market for an AMG one so Koffi can easily afford an original Rolls.

It may not be by coincidence that Selfie is doing well, I think this man understands his game well. He may be stupid but give it to him, he is a genius in his own right.

This guy was a Business major, he caught heat for propelling Fally much like Werra got for Wata but alas!!!; Couple years down the road some will wake up and thank him for Candy ;D ;)

I certainly will not!!! I never had a problem with him promoting fally, bouro etc and he didn't focus too much on them as much as he does with cindy and if you remember koffi had a mini tour in 2005 he took with him ferre, soleil, modogo and the rest were former ql singers  and if you look now koffi has to take cindy EVERYWHERE he goes and its annoying a lot of us fans to the point where most of us despise her presence

Cindy is a talented singer but she gets on my damn nerves, Koffi even talks about Cindy like she is the second leader of QL. For exmaple he would says Cindy and my group QL like what?? Cindy is in QL.

How selfish;10-years later you still want him to tour with guys that are no longer in the team just because you don't like Cindy?

That's the same argument and excuse folks use on JB and the Mikulis; your gripe should be with Koffi not Cindy.

no i want him to focus with his current team instead of cindy say if she was treated normally like the others then maybe but that's a big maybe i will feel different there's no doubt she's a great singer but I hate her presence in the band she killed it I don't think I can ever forgive her and koffi for wasting talent's such as mon ami guelord, Asso, Babia, Arca dinheiro, J3 and others

This ex QL members look dead on stage but certainly wouldn't mind Cindy or her replica to revive them  ;D
