The singer addressed the matter during a recent appearance on Hot 97′ […]
At this point, it would be hard to think of an artist who hasn’t been thrown into the hypothetical Verzuz battle pool. Yet during an appearance on ESPN’s Jalen & Jacoby, the platform’s co-creator, Swizz Beatz, revealed his dream match-up. “My dream one…I wanna figure out how to do (Tupac) and (The Notorious B.I.G.) in a way that the people […]

Royce da 5’9″ has become Eminem‘s de facto buffer when it comes to frivolous beef. This was on full display when the rapper addressed Benzino for dissing Em and his loyal fanbase. Royce took to both Instagram and Twitter on Tuesday where he trolled Benzino for living in the past. “I can’t wait till Benzino get […]
During an episode of the I Am Athlete podcast that was released on Monday, guest Rick Ross continued his nearly dozen-year-old feud with 50 Cent by implying outright stating that 50 can’t make good music…either anymore, or without A-list producers. The topic came up when hosts Channing Crowder, Fred Taylor, Brandon Marshall, and Chad Johnson brought up the idea […]

At this point, almost every opponent has been thrown at 50 Cent for a potential Verzuz battle. Although he doesn’t seem too interested in this virtual fade, he does think one match-up should take place. On Monday, 50 went on Instagram Live to promote his Branson Cognac by having a candid conversation. During the talk, 50 […]
Despite the title, Verzuz was built on celebrating catalogs of established artists and promoting unity.
