I would be remiss if I didn’t mention that, in addition to the American gospel artists who took Grammies home on Sunday, the Soweto Gospel Choir from South Africa also took home a Grammy, their second.
The world-renowned 26-member group that was formed in 2002 received the Best Traditional World Music Album honor for African Spirit.
Congratulations to the Soweto Gospel Choir! Amandla!
