"Summertime" was crowned Best Rap Performance By A Duo Or Group and earned the rap duo known as DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince their second career GRAMMY win. The vibey, laid-back track was the lead single from their fourth studio album, Homebase.

For the latest edition of GRAMMY Rewind, revisit the moment when an almost-20-year-old Rihanna took home her very first golden gramophone at the 50th GRAMMY Awards in 2008. She, along with collaborator and fellow superstar JAY-Z, won Best Rap/Sung Collaboration for their massive No. 1 hit "Umbrella," from RiRi's 2007 album, Good Girl Gone Bad.

Watch their full acceptance speech below in which the stunning duo has a hilarious back-and-forth with the mic. Taylor Swift—both women were first-time nominees at the time—and Juanes present the award.
