Afro beat King, Femi Kuti, has been nominated again
in the Best World Music Album Category for his album No Place For My Dream in

Ladysmith Black Mambazo and the Living Room Sessions Part 2 by Ravi Shankar.
The Grammy Awards are the biggest awards of the
music industry and the 2014 edition would take place on January 14.
Jay Z led the pack with nine nominations, while
Kendrick Lamar, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, Pharrell and Justin Timberlake
scored seven nominations each.
