"Qui est l'exemple?" is a 2001 song recorded by French artist Rohff. It was the third single from his debut album, La Vie avant la mort, and was released in late 2001 in a CD maxi, then in February 2002 in a CD single. It achieved huge success in Belgium (Wallonia), Switzerland and particularly in France where it topped the chart. To date, it is the singer's biggest hit and can be considered as his signature song.

The refrain of the song is sung by Kayliah and contains a sampling of 1981 hit single "Your love" of the band Lime, but plays lower.

As of August 2014, it was the 56th best-selling single of the 21st century in France, with 379,000 units sold.[1]
