Kanye West has been confirmed as one of the acts scheduled to appear at the Grammy Awards in LA next month.
He's part of a line-up which also includes fellow nominees Mariah Carey and John Legend. West is, of course, expected to dominate at the event, given his eight nominations for 2005 album 'Late Registration', and he himself is expecting to win big.
He recently told MTV: "It's like [Michael] Jordan. That first year when he comes out and they win a championship it's like, 'OK, yeah, that's good'. But that second year he has to set new goals, he says, 'No, I want this, I'm going for this.' So when I worked on ['Late Registration'] I kept on saying to Jon [Brion, producer], 'Are you ready to win Album of the Year?'"
