GRAMMY WATCH: Will FEMI KUTI be 3rd time lucky this Sunday?

Femi Kuti

Femi Kuti’s ‘Africa for Africa’ album is up for  nomination as Best World Music Album in the 54th edition of the Grammy Awards, which will be held this sunday at Staples Center in Los Angeles. Also nominated in that category are AfroCubism, Ladysmith Black and Malian Tinariwen. 

This is Femi's 3rd Grammy nomination since 2003 when he lost to Panamanian Salsa Ruben Blades and in 2010 to U.S banjo player, Bela Fleck. Let's hope this will be third time lucky for Femi. He surely deserves it!!
