Though it seems like a whole slew of artists will be skipping this year's Grammys for one reason or another, we can rest easy knowing that Anderson .Paak, one of of 2016's biggest success stories, will be making his Grammy debut as planned. He is set to perform with A Tribe Called Quest in what is sure to be one of the most ebullient sets of the night. To give a little taste of what's in store, Paak has shared an infectiously joyous live version of his song "Come Down." Watch it above.
Created in tandem with the Grammys, the video sees .Paak frenetically playing the drums and singing with a gospel choir in the middle of church. What may seem like an inspired idea for a set is actually art imitating life, as .Paak can trace his musical beginnings for doing precisely that: playing percussion for his local gospel choir. If his Grammy performance is even half as delightful as this video, then we are in for quite a treat this weekend.
The 2017 Grammys will air on Sunday, February 12.
Watch the original video of "Come Down" below.
