    HI FOLKS!!

    I know that I'm not on very much these days, but I just had to come and share this with you!! I am soooo excited!

    A while ago I posted pics of my favorite signer, Corneille, who is Rwandan but now lives in Canada. Well, he's releasing his first english-language album, entitled "The Birth of Cornelius" in Canada and in Europe in a few weeks (until now, he had only recorded in French).

    The video for the first single features him and his wife (who is white). The song is called "Too Much of Everything". Have a look at the clip and please let me know what you think:

    He is planning to release the album in the US in the Fall... I'm not sure that this video will do so well in the States. What do you guys think?

    You can read more about him at: www.corneille.ca

    I hope you enjoy!

    YAY!

    I'm glad that you guys like it so far! I've been a fan of this guy since he released his first album in 2002. I've seen him in concert about a dozen times and I still love seeing him perform! He is charming and kind and a very special soul...

    Me and him in 2005:

    Pearlgirl, good eye for talent. This brotha is probably going to blow-up in the US to. I know he will blow-up in Europe. 8)

    Loved it. The song is great, and his wife looks lovely. I'd rather listen to acts like this over the silly, untalented dipshits that are popular these days. Thanks a lot, PearlGirl.

    Good looking, by the way.

    Here is a great article about Corneille:

    "A star in the French-speaking world, the Rwandan genocide survivor makes his English-language debut"

    (It's on a Japanese site as he is launching his album in Japan as well.)





    I thought that some of you might enjoy it... plus, I kinda wanted to bump this topic up a little! hehe :D

    He finally has a english album out. I know he has such a hype in MTL. Hopefully it'll be all over the country. When I watch muchmusic and sometimes they'd have "french kiss" on, he'll always be on. But he'd be singing in french, and I'd have to change the channel. Because I never knew what he was saying.


    Though I always loved his voice though. Good for him.

    A little bit of news...

    Corneille signed a deal with Motown records for a worldwide distribution a few months ago, so "The Birth of Cornelius" should be released in the States any time now. The date has not been announced yet, but stay tuned...

    I'll let you guys know as soon as it's announced.

    In the meantime, you can check out more here:
