The Corna Boyz
Pierre Medor and Dwayne Nesmith
Pierre and Dwayne, aka production team The Corna Boyz, met at the Hartt School of Music at the University of Connecticut in 1999. Both music majors, their chemistry was apparent and soon the two began collaborating as a team. The Corna Boyz relocated to Atlanta in 2000 to work closely with platinum-selling artists Jagged Edge (Columbia Records)on their 2001 release, Jagged Little Thrill, featuring the track "This Goes Out." The success of the Jagged Edge record led to more opportunities for the Boyz including the 2005 Grammy nominated single "New Day" on Patti LaBelle's album Timeless Journey; "I'm Gon' Change" and "I Wish" on the #1 Omarion album O; and the current hit single "All Because of You" by R&B star Marques Houston, whose highly anticipated sophomore album is due out mid-2005.
In addition to working with signed artists, their experiences have inspired the Corna Boyz to pursue artist development. "We found a young female artist with an amazingly soulful voice," says Pierre. "Though it's a tough market, we feel she has what it takes to really make it and want to work with her from the ground up." The Corna Boyz recently wrapped up studio time with Boyz II Men, Megan (Def Jam), Tiarra (Def Jam) and Rico Love (J Records.) Their next big release is with Jagged Edge (Columbia) May 2006.
