It’s ladies night in the Verzuz arena. Eve and Trina are stepping into the ring in what marks the first Verzuz battle between two female rappers. Verzuz organizers announced the match-up about a week ago, describing the event as a celebration of the hip-hop queens. “Honored to share this celebration with @therealeve this will be an epic night full of amazing […]

Soulja Boy and Bow Wow are using social media taunts to further sell their upcoming Verzuz bout. On Sunday, Bow Wow opened his Twitter up to fans to answer any questions they might have about his life and career. This prompted Soulja Boy to take a jab at Bow Weezy by posing a question of […]

Verzuz may have never joined the Triller Network had Apple Inc. got its way.  According to Bloomberg, the tech giant had shown interest in acquiring the webcast series during their previous partnership. Insiders claim Apple never engaged in a bidding war but presented a purchase price that was ultimately rejected. Sources with knowledge of the matter did not specify the amount […]

The ladies are, once again, taking over the Verzuz ring. This Mother’s Day weekend, legendary girl groups Xscape and SWV (Sistas With Voices) are going head-to-head in a nostalgic battle of R&B hits. ATL’s Xscape—made up of Tameka “Tiny” Harris, Kandi Burruss, and sisters LaTocha and Tamika Scott—was founded in the early ’90s and were signed to Jermaine Dupri’s So So Def imprint shortly after. The group dropped […]

DMX and Swizz Beatz shared a unique bond throughout their careers. As a result, the super producer-turned-mogul decided to use X’s homegoing ceremony as a platform to call out people who weren’t there for his friend.
