Rocks Off was horrified to learn this morning that Houston R&B group Asida Soul had unintentionally been left off both the print and online editions of this year’s HPMA ballot. Thanks to Tia from Asida Soul for writing in and letting us know; the online ballot has already been corrected and the correct print ballot will be in the edition that hits the racks Wednesday and Thursday.

Rocks Off sincerely apologizes to Asida Soul and wishes the group and its fellow Soul/Funk/R&B nominees – Caretta Bell, Dominique, Leela James, Kam and Neon Collars – the best of luck.
