Trae Holiday, along with her fellow Emmy winners, brought their historic win back to its roots in the Central District the morning after snagging a statuette for The Day With Trae Intro, returning to the exact location where her award-winning video was filmed. This wasn't simply a celebratory gesture; it was a powerful statement. The return of the Emmy to the CD served as a vibrant symbol of Black Joy, alive and well in a community with a rich and storied past. Trae's actions beautifully honored the legacy of those who came before while simultaneously igniting inspiration for the future. Joining Trae in this meaningful homecoming were fellow Emmy winners Vitamin D, Koach Crosby, and Erik Kalligraphy, alongside Executive Producer Omari Salisbury. The celebration also included photographer Jordan Somers and Production Intern Tavis Conway, highlighting the collaborative effort behind the win. This moment encapsulated the strength and spirit of the community and the power of collective achievement. Congratulations Trae and all the winners!
