KRS-One and Rakim, the Top Two Emcees on most people's lists have received the unprecedented honour of being nominated to receive a Grammy Award for "Better than I've Ever Been."

More about the KRS-One and Rakim Grammy Nomination... 

Originally produced by Rick Rubin, the "Better than I've Ever Been" remix  by DJ Premier also features perhaps the current generation's strongest emcee Nas, and one of it's top producers, Kanye West, who held his own surprisingly well with such heavyweight lyricists. It is unclear from the information available whether this nomination is for the original track or remix. Most heads would love to learn that it was the DJ Premier Remix that was nominated as this, no disrespekt to Rick Rubin, would be most fitting.

No doubt if the nomination is for the original recording proper credit will be given. 

Congratulations to all involved with the projekt!
