Nas’ "Legendary" To Be Considered For Academy Award
12.18.09 | by Danielle Harling
Nas’ song “Legendary” from Tyson, the Mike Tyson documentary, could possibly be up for an Academy Award next year.
According to Vibe.com, early next year the Academy will begin to screen about 63 songs for the category of Best Original Song. Nominees for the category will not be revealed until February 2, 2010.
Nas' "Legendary" will be up against a number of worthy contenders including “Colorblind” (Invictus), "Cinema Italiano" (Nine), “Almost There” (The Princess And The Frog), and over 50 other songs.
Nas has yet to comment on the possibility of receiving an Academy Award nomination.
Released earlier this year, Tyson is a documentary that takes a deep look into the life of former undisputed heavy weight champion of the world boxer Mike Tyson. The film has received rave reviews and even won the Regard Knockout Award at the Cannes Film Festival.
