Prisoners are nominated for a Grammy
Prisoners at a jail in the African country of Malawi are nominated for a Grammy.
Inmates at the maximum security Zomba Prison recorded an album with producer Ian Brennan. Malawi is the poorest country in the world.
Their song "I Have No Everything in Here" was nominated in the World Music category.
A portion of the proceeds from sales of the album will help fund legal representation and other support.
