The 2013 Grammy Nominations Are In ...

((  Written By: Mimi Tsiane  ))  ... and I am totally underwhelmed.  I find going through the list irritating as I don’t know many of the new artists, I can’t pronounce their names and music nowadays describes all the intricacies of sex to a point where it becomes a physical and mental assault of the soul.  With that said here are the three Africans that could win a Grammy.  Estelle's (Senegal) song "Thank You" was nominated for Best R&B Performance, Wale's (Nigeria) "Lotus Flower Bomb" featuring Miguel was nominated for Best Rap Song, and Hugh Masekela's (South Africa) album "Jabulani" was nominated in the Best World Music Album category.
