Femi Kuti Gets Grammy Nomination by kosovo(m): 12:05am On Dec 06, 2009
Afrobeat maestro, Femi Kuti, has been nominated for the 52nd edition of the Grammy Awards under the 'Best Contempo-rary World Music Album' category for his 'Day by Day' album.

Femi is currently signed to Mercer Street Records alongside his compatriot Asa. This is Femi's second Grammy nomination.

Kuti, 47, is the first son of late Afrobeat creator, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti.

Nominees for the 2010 Grammy were announced yesterday, amidst performances on broadcast partners, CBS Network.

Singer Beyonce leads the pack with a whopping 10 nods while Taylor Swift, who has had an interesting and eventful year, follows with eight nominations. Kanye West got six (all for his works with other artistes) while rave act Lady Gaga earned five nods.

Sunny Ade and Femi kuti are the only indigenous Nigerians to have been nominated for the Grammy's.
