In Ivory Coast, the artist Kpli Essy Line, also known as Josée Delatour, spoke about the usefulness of featurings in showbiz.
For the latter, certain featurings do not make sense. As an example, she mentioned a featuring between her and Josey.
“In showbiz, I think there are featurings that are useless. For example, some people advise me to do a featuring with JOSEY or Roseline LAYO.
Certainly, it would be good for music lovers, but, basically, I don’t really see the usefulness of it, because we all have the same fans and evolve in the same musical register.
For me, a useful featuring would be with an artist from another musical genre.
This would help attract a new fan base to my artistic universe.
Afterwards, you should know that I had already approached JOSEY for a featuring, and she had accepted. However, this was not validated by my staff.
Basically, we are all vocal singers, so with the same audience and the same fans.
This is an analysis that I made, without it being a categorical refusal.
We all value Ivorian culture, and this observation does not take away from that. »she confided.
