Rick Ross and 2 Chainz went head-to-head in a shenanigan-filled Verzuz battle on Thursday (August 6), but Verzuz co-founder Swizz Beatz already has his eyes set on the next one. On Thursday night, Swizz hollered at fellow co-founder Timbaland via Twitter with a very ambitious idea.
“Ayo Tim Drake VS YE,” he tweeted. “#verzuz.” He concluded his tweet with a series of eyeball emojis.
The two music industry titans have an arsenal of material to choose from if they indeed agreed to a showdown. Of course, Drake’s first mixtape Room For Improvement arrived in 2006, giving him 14 years of projects to pull from.
Meanwhile, Kayne West’s inaugural album, The College Dropout, was released in 2004 and he’s released eight subsequent albums over the years, culminating with 2019’s Jesus Is King. His 10th effort, DONDA, was expected to arrive last month but failed to materialize.
Verzuz has exploded with popularity since the first RZA versus DJ Premier battle in April. Subsequent face-offs have included Erykah Badu and Jill Scott, Teddy Riley and Babyface and Snoop Dogg and DMX. Last month, Apple Music announced they teamed up with the popular Instagram Live platform to enhance the viewer experience.
The episodes are now simulcast live on Apple Music and Beats 1 simultaneously as the Verzuz Instagram Live channel. They are also exclusively available via Apple Music on-demand following the live stream. Apple Music is actively working alongside Swizz and Timbo to produce new episodes of Verzuz to “continue giving fans a truly premium, high quality shared experience.”
give me Kayne specifically his first 6 albums Drake wouldnt know what to do.
not true but ok… subjectively speaking
Issa fact. Drake got no depth, will never match up to Ye first albums.
If we taking popularity contest, i guess but musically Kanye is a way bigger artist than drake even his beats for other rappers are on another level
who do you think has the biggest bulge out of the 3?
RZA vs. Preem wasn’t the first Versuz battle
kanye music slaps 10x more than drake music
I WILL SKIP THIS ONE 4 SURE.
Kanye with the easy W just with his deep cuts
which of the 3 has the biggest bulge?
Yo momma gotta shed some light on that one.
We would have to treat Kanye like Timberland and Swizz Beatz. Even before his debut album, Kanye has produced/co-produced for Jermaine Dupri, Beanie Sigel, Jay-z, Scarface, Talib Kweli, Alicia Keys, Ludacris, Lil Kim, Dmx, Beyoncé, and more. Ever since, add all G.O.O.D’s artists, Rick Ross, Drake, and many more to the list.
Swizz was jus calling Drake pussy now he’s asking for a favor.
Nah, that’s BORING!! Swizz should be teasing Tekashi 6ix9ine v The Game. Now that would be a showdown!
Lil wanye
kanye produced and wrote his shit vs drake a dude that dickrides every wave flow, and was known to use ghost writers. Ye will always be above wheelchair jimmys
Kanye is the only one actually process to use ghostwriters. I’m not flaming you, just giving you the facts. Google it. Kanye said it himself.
2 emo niggas with endless hits. Jay vs Em would be a battle of the GOD MCs
Wu Tang Clan. Vs. Dipset
Kanye won’t play any of his old music, with the exception of Jesus Walks. He’s too much on that religious stuff now. He’d get washed.
WHY IS EVERYONE SCARED OF A JA RULE vs 50 Cent? That’s the 1!!!!!! Swizz/Timbo whaddup?
Who should go against Outkast?
