WAWA 001.jpg


Jhenny: Do you ever take a taxi?
WAWA: Rarely, because in each region or city where I go, we rent a car for ease of our transport. But when I take one, I'm always well-disguised so that even the driver doesn't recognise me.


Jhenny: What is your favourite way to relax?
WAWA: The advantage in music is that it is a source of relaxation and it is my source of relaxation.


Jhenny: What is your favourite breakfast?
WAWA: Usually, it's fried egg, tea and fruits of the season.


Jhenny: What is your worst habit?
WAWA: I am someone very calm, but also easily irritable.


Jhenny: What is your source of inspiration?
WAWA: It depends, sometimes when I'm alone in peace I can create, but it also happens to me when surrounded by friends having fun and playing for pleasure.


Jhenny: What motivates you in this job?
WAWA: As always, it's my fans who are my motivation, in 16 years of experience, my fans are only increasing, wherever I go, in Madagascar and abroad.


What is your strongest experience of your life?
WAWA: It is the disappearance of my music teacher, the one who introduced me to the music "doctor JB" and the death of my father also traumatised me.


Jhenny: How do you react to criticism?
WAWA: I support it well. There are two characteristics of criticism; there is one meant to improve and there is another coming from jealousy, and I know to differentiate between them.


Jhenny: What advice do you give to beginners in this job?
WAWA: Before we thought that music was an illusory job, that we can not live with music as a profession, but now music is a respectable profession, we just have to be serious, if our fans did not let us down for 16 years means that we are serious, we respect this job, we respect our fans, when we give a concert, we give the enjoyment that the fans ask for, that's why they will always be starting every year to come to see us, if in every city and every year, our concerts are always full is by what we give all, me personally I give my body and my soul to create pleasure.


Jhenny: What are your short and long term plans?
WAWA: My project since a few years is to work every year with a new foreign artist, there was a great featuring that I made with Diamond Platnumz this year and we plan to work with Konshens the Jamaican artist next year. We do not stop doing something better and again. In the long run, God willing, I will never give up creating pleasure for my fans with this talent he gave me, and no make mistake, I will stay focused on this job that I love.


Jhenny: What is your best travel memory?
WAWA: When we go to Mayotte, it's a small island, but when we organise shows it's always full and in addition we organise more than 25 performances in a month, but people are more and more numerous and it touches me a lot, because if people come back it's because they really love me, it's because they're really happy with our work.


Jhenny: What is your best meeting?
WAWA: Young artists like Ngia Tax, Lion Basta, Big Mj, LukoKininike. For the older generations, I love artists who are often in contact with me like Din Rotsaka, Tianjama, Ninie Donia.


Jhenny: If you win the lottery, what are you going to do or buy?
WAWA: I will create a big park for children, that's what's missing on Nosy Be, and I would call it "WAWA park" as wawa is a nickname that we often give to the baby, a park for children is better suited to my name WAWA.


Jhenny: What is the thing that irritates you the most in people?
WAWA: It is the lie and the deception, I can not stand it, when I work, I keep my seriousness and my professionalism and I wait for people who connect with me in the way.


Jhenny: What attracted you to the world of music?
WAWA: Music has always been my pleasure, before when I was a carpenter, I played music for my pleasure, after, all my world turned to music, it became my job and my pleasure.


Jhenny: Explain us your creation process?
WAWA: I am a complete musician and artist, I can play almost every instrument. I bring my mobile studio with me wherever I go, when I'm quiet I start to create piece by piece, I do not take the moments of others and add parts, no, I start to compose by a blank page and I add moments pieces by pieces until I have complete music, I am the origin of A to Z of my music.


Jhenny: What does your normal day look like?
WAWA: My normal day is to wake up around noon after a night of performance and to think about the set-up, preparation and rehearsal of the next show, for me a normal day means a day where I play music.

Jhenny: Quels est votre réaction face au fan?

WAWA: avec mes fans je suis toujours prêt à faire leur plaisir, pour moi mes fans se doit toujours d’être satisfait. Même pendant mes représentations si un fan me demande de chanter une chanson de mes anciens albums, je le ferrerai même si cela fait pas partie de notre programme, c’est comme ça, je suis prêt à servir mes fans.

Jhenny: What is your reaction to the fan?
WAWA: With my fans I am always ready to create their pleasure, for me my fans must always be satisfied. Even during my performances if a fan asks me to sing a song from my old albums, I will shoe it even if it's not part of our program, that's how I'm ready to serve my fans.

Jhenny: Qu’est ce que vous préférez dans ce métier? Et ce que vous ne préférez pas?

WAWA: j’aime mon travail, car grâce à cela, je peux nourrir ma famille, mais surtout la musique me relie avec le monde, je ne fait pas de politique, mais où je vais, on me reçoit cordialement même à l’étranger quand je produit, les gens viennent nombreux. Grace à ce métier, partout où je vais je suis bien reçu. —> la côte négative de ce travail est la manque de sommeils qui cause en générale la frustration et la nervosité. Je pense que même si c’est un travail/plaisir, il faut toujours avoir un jour de repos.


Jhenny: Parlez nous de votre nouvelle stratégie?

WAWA: on a arrêté de produire des albums, on fait que quelques single, par exemple trois singles par ans, car avec la technologie le VCD et les DVD ne sont plus très demander, c’est le YouTube et la Facebook qui marche maintenant.
