Good surprises! Meet the nominees for the 2004 Grammy for Best Reggae Album!

This week the nominees for the Grammy for Best Reggae Album of the year were announced. The news is that, this time, only artists from Reggae's "old guard" appeared, which can be considered a victory, since the Grammy had been totally "stagnant" in Dancehall/Ragga for many years. The awards ceremony will be held on 02/13/2005, and for now Steel Pulse, with the album "African Holocaust", is the favorite according to critics.

THE NOMINEES

Black Magic Artist: Jimmy Cliff [Artemis Records/Unique Corp.] The Dub Revolutionaries Artist: Sly & Robbie [Sanctuary] African Holocaust Artist: Steel Pulse [RAS/Sanctuary Records] True Love Artist: Toots & The Maytals [V2 Records] Def Jamaica Artist: Various Artists [Def Jamaica/Def Jam Recordings]
