Based on the review, it seems like Zenglen did it again with "5eme vitesse". I can't wait to put my hand on the new album.
As far, as people still bringing up Gracia; voila le probleme de ce pays... nou toujou rete dans le passe.
Oui, Gracia te fe anpil dezod leu li te lan Zenglen but he's no longer in the band. Last time I checked he has his Mass Konpa.
So get over it and let Zenglen move forward |

Inspecteur, it's not about the public's inability to move forward, it's about Zenglen's inability to generate heat when they perform live. The electricity simply isn't there.
We spend a lot of time blaming, the public, or blaming marketing. Sometimes a horse is just a horse... |

*WARNING..RICHIE has to be careful because a couple of his songs are starting to sound like stuff we've heard before. Certain parts in MWEN PAP TOUNIN sounds like stuff from MMS, and like I said previously, "5EME VITES" is the brother of '5 DWET' in terms of the formula, and some parts.
|
That is my biggest problem with the album, not those two that you mention but also part of Paye Bill sounds like Pal Kokal and also the begining of Mizikanou sounds like Mwen Enmé - W. I mean I understand he wrote those songs but I guess that is the problem when only one individual writes the songs. |
Sa sé yon bèl obsèvasyon dé KM & Ti baguy. I was thinking the same thing as i was listening to the album last night.
The only difference is that I seem to be addicted to that formula; ninpot jan Richie ban mwen'l li bon.
"mwen pap tounen" & "fos desten" are my 2 favorite tracks.
I wish Kenny would sing more tenor than alto; he sounds better with the former.
Overall, mwen satilfè. _________________ Kabrit fin manje jaden'w, lè sa ou rele bare volè

Yeah, Gracia. Live-wise, Zenglen has yet to recover from that loss.
Now, to get people to go to their bals, Zenglen needs to do two things:
1. Start playing well in bals. Sounds obvious, right? I heard a live Zenglen track from last summer, from a compilation CD, and it was simply awful. Zenglen needs to play better live.
2. Once they start playing well, make a live CD and make sure you have as many people as possible hear it. Put a Mad Dog logo on it if you have to. Give it away. Just make sure people hear what you got on stage. The people will come, believe me.
The studio release date is perfect. If Zenglen can put out some live material by July 4th, they'll have the summer on lockdown. |
I like that alot and i'm 1 that beleive in that.... 1 thing they could be very inconsistent , meaning some bal are way better then others...a lil More stability and i think they will start doing better....
For some Reason also Zenglen seem to perform better in Haiti..(from all the bal i heard) wish and hope they can duplicate that work ethic in the state a lil more.....
Ps: Ben if you here them , or see them more often you'll find some bal way better then others ...so maybe se on mistake song on that compilation.....Stability i think...
i'm just krezi about ti bebe' _________________
