Prince at Common Eryka Badu Grammy Afterparty!

Hey all. My co-worker just informed me that Prince was at the Common/Eryka Badu Grammy Afterparty at BB King's. Apparently he was there with Mani (and he had her sitting on his lap for part of the night). I'm not sure if he performed but I'll get the scoop and fill you all in later.

Side note: Why am I NEVER in the right place at the right time??? cry shrug

My co-worker who went is not interested in Prince enough to have known to ask.

Okay, so he didn't perform at the party, despite the other artists in attendance request. So while I missed a P sighting, I did not miss a P performance.

Do you know who else has been there? Who performed?

Who performed: Common, Eryka Badu, Raphael Sadiiq (sp?), The Roots, India Aire, um...

Who was there: Alicia Keys, members of the Goodie Mobb, um...

I suspect that because it was a Common/Badu party all the other "neo-soul" affiliates were there too.

I was there and the performers were Erykah, Common, Musiq, Meshell N'degeocello on bass, Questlove on drums, Jaguar Wright, Jill Scott, Raphel Saddiq, a guy from the Nappy Roots, Floetry, Bilal, India Arie, Roy Hargrove. That's all I can think of right now.

omfg You're kidding! Sounds like a great line up. Too bad Prince didn't get in on that!

How many of you saw Eriku on the Grammy's? She kept messing up saying she missed rehearsal and couldn't see the teleprompter. What was that all about?

I didn't watch the show, but I hear that India.Arie finally won two Grammys. Did anyone see her acceptance speeches? I think it took backbone and class to even show up after last year.

Yippee Kie Yea

She did win twice. But unfortunately for her, both of her categories were announced before the show went on the air.

Peace, David

Yeah, I thought that didn't do much for Eriku's spot light. She acted in very poor taste.

Thanks for the info David! You would think they would at least give her some air time. I like the second CD, but the first one was phenomenal!
