From 680News:

Lead singer of Jacksoul dies at 39 Haydain Neale, frontman of the Juno award-winning group Jacksoul, has died of cancer at age 39. He died Sunday at Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto after a seven-month battle with lung cancer.

Sad news....I realize they probably aren't a huge musical group...but I always enjoyed their music. I didn't even know he was ill.

I had no idea he was ill, I googled him and saw he was in a huge accident last year. Thought this had something to do with his death, but I guess not.

Sad to hear, I was a fan of a few of their songs, but always thought he was younger.

I didn't know his name, but I looked up his picture and instantly remembered him and their music.

Sad news.

I really enjoyed Can't Stop, even if I hear it these days I will turn it up.

RIP.
