ZENGLEN: U messed up "PLAN A"..DON'T mess up "PLAN B"!
__________________________________________
IT'S BEEN OVER 7 MONTHS since ZENGLEN released their latest CD on the market. By all accounts it is a very good CD, but if we're being honest, it's as if the group has DONE NOTHING to justify having that great product in their hands.
The CD has NOT helped the group take that leap to the next level of popularity. It has NOT done for the band what their last CD "REZILTA" did for the group FOR A FEW MONTHS after its release...on the strength of the mega hit song "REZILTA". This new CD has left ZENGLEN in limbo...and NOT BECAUSE OF THE CD....rather because the group is basically at a standstill....WITH A BRAND NEW CD IN THEIR HANDS.
It was pretty clear that band leader and manager BRUTUS and RORO took a gamble when they put ALL THEIR HOPES ON YOUNG VOCALIST WID. WID is the one who they put money on to help ease the blow left by Reginald Cange's departure. In doing that, even by adding returning vocalist and fan favorite FRERO in the mix...IT WAS CLEAR FOR ALL TO SEE THAT THE TOP DOGS IN THE GROUP CLEARLY HANDED THE KEYS OF THE MANSION TO WID....not prepared for a "PLAN B" if that did not work well.
Due to WID's traveling issues not yet being resolved, ZENGLEN has had to put their trip to Haiti on hold....in their minds thinking that if WID can't go...they don't need to go to Haiti. TO THAT WE SAY...UNDERSTANDABLE "The first time"; BUT IF AFTER 8 MONTHS THE BAND DOES NOT WANT TO GO TO HAITI TO SELL THEIR CD because of WID's issues....I SAY BAD MOVE.....MAL CALCULE.
The moment that ZENGLEN knew that WID's traveling COULD BE A PROBLEM that might prevent him from going to Haiti with the band....THE GROUP SHOULD HAVE SHIFTED THEIR ATTENTION TO PUSHING/PROMOTING/PUTTING THE SPOTLIGHT ON FRERO, in order to have something HOT ON THEIR HANDS to travel to Haiti with....WITHOUT WID. FRERO has 2 songs on the CD that CAN HELP LIFT THE GROUP WHERE IT'S AT...to get them a DEMAND in Haiti. The songs "LAJAN MONTE BWA" and "BON GRENN" should have had a music video filmed...AS SOON AS THE FIRST HAITI TRIP was abandoned because of WID's issues. Had ZENGLEN done that, they would have prepared THEIR SUMMER HAITI TOUR because FRERO would have had a hot song that could carry them on tour in Haiti to keep ZENGLEN in the spotlight.
A HAITI SUMMER TOUR is extremely important...especially for a band with a brand new CD. ZENGLEN has had a CD on the market for 7/8 months, and they have yet to go down to Haiti to PLAY IT LIVE for the IMPORTANT MARKET down there. If WID is NOT able to travel to Haiti yet again....ZENGLEN WOULD BE BEST SERVED by going down there anyway and having a very capable vocalist like FRERO hold it down by selling ZENGLEN and HIS SONGS to the motherland. TO SAY THAT YOU DON'T WANT TO GO DOWN TO HAITI "TWICE" BECAUSE WID IS NOT ABLE TO TRAVEL....IS A SLAP IN THE FACE OF FRERO because you are basically saying to him indirectly SE WID KE FANATIK YO BEZWEN WE SEULEMENT....NOT ZENGLEN or FRERO.
We all know how a good trip in the motherland can BOOST UP a band's value back in the States. We have had plenty of examples of that from the past; so it would be an ERROR OF MAJOR PROPORTIONS if ZENGLEN once again decided NOT to go to Haiti this Summer...if WID is not able to travel. ZENGLEN can say that while all the other bands are in Haiti on tour, they will try to take advantage of that to book gigs in the U.S; but all this time they've been here in the U.S...I can't really say that the group's calendar of gigs has been jumping off the roof.
LET'S KEEP IT REAL UP IN HERE!
ZENGLEN messed up "PLAN A"......DON'T MESS UP "PLAN B"....or else this wonderful CD that you guys put out.....LI KA MOURI NAN MIN NOU tankou DOUBLE SIX nan DOMINO!
From a huge fan of your MUSIC and DETERMINATION....RESPECTFULLY YOURS!
