The son of the legend, Baba Fela is pulling his own waves on the international scene. Femi Kuti was nominated for a grammy in the Best Contemporary World Music Album Category with his last album, Day by Day. This is pretty big for traditional naija music and I hope this opens more doors for naija entertainers. Big Ups to Femi on this one. Congrats!!! I'm way too excited on this one.
