The trending showdown type stream dubbed “Verzuz Battles” has had appearances from Ne-Yo, T-pain, Ludacris, Lil Jon, Nelly and so many more. Other big names have now rumored appearances, such as Keyshia Cole and Ashanti in the Instagram account’s latest stream.

What We Know:

  • Since Swizz Beatz and Timbaland decided to start hosting friendly competitions for fans and artists stuck at home due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it has become an ongoing celebration of Black music. Both rappers indulged viewers by helping them take a little trip down memory lane with old and current hits, classic records, and so much more.
  • Verzuz TV started this account back in early April, and since then, the popularity of its Verzuz Battles on Instagram has begun to corral and grab the attention of many more celebrities.
  • The account starting gaining greater traction after Thursday’s stream of what many people called, Snoop Dogg and DMX’s “Battle of the Dogs”. As usual, many fans and other celebrities were in the comments section typing away.
  • Amid Snoop and DMX’s friendly showdown, a keen eye spotted a quick comment by R&B singer Keyshia Cole, calling out fellow R&B singer Ashanti, putting her on the spot and challenging her music against her own.
