Apocalypto (2006) ends with Jaguar Paw surviving the hunt… only for Spanish ships to appear on the horizon. Not a victory, not relief…just history arriving. One of the coldest final images in modern cinema.
Eve is finally receiving a long-overdue Grammy for her uncredited verse on The Roots’ “You Got Me” after
27 years.
On Thursday (Jan. 29), Eve was awarded the Grammy during the Recording Academy Honors presented by The Black Music Collective in Los Angeles.
"This is actually for lil Eve from Philly," she said in a video captured by Hollywood Confidential. "What is yours never can miss you even 30 years later. So I'm truly grateful for this."
The Roots' 1999 track earned the Grammy Award for Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group in 2000. Since Eve was uncredited on the song, she was excluded from Grammy recognition when the rap group was first honored.
"When we recently learned about the story, it was really simple,” Recording Academy president Harvey Mason Jr. said, according to The Hollywood Reporter. "We needed to make it right, and it was a chance for us to make it right. So tonight, the Recording Academy is here to offer a much-deserved respect and recognition."
This marks Eve's second career Grammy. In 2002, she won Best Rap/Sung Collaboration for her song "Let Me Blow Ya Mind" featuring Gwen Stefani.
I think it’s funny that there’s now a movie called Send Help using the same logo font as my series Sendhelp, which has been streaming on Tubi. Check out the original and binge watch it today on Tubi.
