Unless you follow the Canadian Soul/R&B scene, especially in French speaking Quebec, Corneille will probably be unknown to you. (He chose the name Corneille after the French classic author). In 2008 he released an album in English (The Birth of Corneille). I am featuring two tracks today from this album. I could attempt to do a bio for Corneille but I think both his life and musical career are so extremely checkered it might be easier to read about it separately. So if you want to know more about him I've provided a link further on. Corneille (Cornelius Nyungura), has released six albums and a host of singles. All but the above mentioned albums have been in French. He has performed live on stage with the likes of superstar Reggae legend, Jimmy Cliff.
Back To Life (2008 album version)
Possibly released earlier on a single.
Murder (2008) from the album.
Available on Amazon UK.
