Now this is very interesting, I happen to stumble upon this article while doing my daily perusing of OkayPlayer.
Hip-hop artist Nasir “Nas” Jones just won an Emmy for the ESPN documentary part of their E:60 series, entitled Survival 1 follows two young amputees, survivors of the Liberian civil war, who go on to form a soccer team–and become champions.
“After all these years of making music, I am honored to have this be the first award I have ever won of this magnitude,” said Nas in his acceptance speech. “An Emmy before a Grammy? Crazy shit.” Nas produced, directed and scored the music for the film.
