Oscars: Diane Warren to Submit H.E.R. Track ‘The Journey,’ From Tyler Perry’s ‘The Six Triple Eight,’ for Song Race (EXCLUSIVE)
Diane Warren will submit the H.E.R.-performed song 'The Journey' from 'The Six Triple Eight' for the Oscars.
The legendary songwriter and 15-time Oscar nominee is aiming for her 16th Academy Awards invitation this year with the track “The Journey” from Tyler Perry’s upcoming war drama, “ The Six Triple Eight,” starring Kerry Washington. Written by Warren and performed by global singing sensation H.E.R., “The Journey” is a tribute to those who face seemingly insurmountable barriers yet persevere and ultimately triumph — much like the extraordinary women of the 6888th Battalion, whose compelling story inspired the song. Her notable nods include “Because You Loved Me” from “Up Close & Personal” (1996), “How Do I Live” from “Con Air” (1997), “I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing” from “Armageddon” (1998), “There You’ll Be” from “Pearl Harbor” (2001), and most recently, “The Fire Inside” from “Flamin’ Hot” (2023).
