Gyptian Out ..But Not in For Grammy

Gyptian is out of the Hospital... and perhaps ready to go once again. The singer who has been rocking the charts with the hit track "Hold Yuh".. broke down over his marathon tour of Europe and Africa. The show he had scheduled for Barbados over the weekend had to be cancelled because he was suffering from dehydration and dizziness and according to reports should be ready for business next week.
Gyptian who had copped the MOBO and Soul Train 2010 awards in the best reggae song category was not nominated for any Grammy.. leaving industry pundits to wonder...
