Congratulations to album contributor Dobet Gnahore on her Grammy in Best Urban/Alternative Performance category!  Dobet collaborated with India Arie to cover Sade’s song “Pearls” [Soulbird/Universal Republic], and India Arie accepted the award on behalf of the two collaborators thanking Dobet for her inspiration.  Here’s what Dobet says on her myspace blog:”Originally a studio project, the two artists recently met in Washington, DC and performed “Pearls” together for the first time in a special concert honoring Dr. Martin Luther King held at the John F. Kennedy Center. President Obama spoke at the events and the entire first family was in attendance.”
