Swizz Beatz and Timbaland‘s simple virtual music competition from back in April, famously branded as their co-hosted Verzuz Instagram Live battles, has now launched into something out of a music fantasy factory.

Swizz Beatz and Timbaland‘s Verzuz Instagram Live battle series has been operating purely for the culture, and now the two music moguls announced on Saturday afternoon that they plan to have Alicia Keys go hit-for-hit against John Legend for a special Juneteenth edition of the series.   “Let’s celebrate Juneteenth with a special edition #Verzuz! @Aliciakeys vs  @johnlegendon the 🎹 Friday, June 19th. 8pm est @verzuztv !!” […]

Bun B is the latest artist to lobby for a shot at Verzuz.  As one half of the dynamic South Texas duo UGK, whose other member, Pimp C, died in 2007, Bun made it clear that he is willing to participate in a handicap match against another fundamental Southern rap group, 8Ball & MJG. On Tuesday, Bun took to Instagram, where […]

Following a classic battle between Nelly and Ludacris last weekend, tonight Bounty Killer and Beenie Man take center stage. The two Jamaican dancehall artists […]
