Kuti lost out on a Grammy Award
For the 4th time, Femi Kuti loses out in the Best World Music Album Category. The Nigerian music legend was nominated for the 56th Annual Grammy Awards with 3 other artistes. He lost out to French group Gipsy Kings and South African group Ladysmith Black Mambazo. It was a tie. Femi has always been vocal about always losing and made it known that he doesn’t plan to attend the awards ceremony. In 2003, 2010 and 2012 Femi was nominated for a Grammy award in the world music category but did not win.
