Swizz Beatz and Timbaland created something special with Verzuz. We've seen some of the culture's biggest names go head to head in a battle to see who has the most hits. While some say The Lox vs. Dipset was the best Verzuz. However, Jill Scott vs. Erykah Badu was equally as amazing. Not to mention, Verzuz looked completely different by the time The Lox tore up the stage and had the crowd losing their minds when they went against Dipset. From the looks of it, we might be getting another blockbuster Verzuz matchup.
In a recent interview with The Breakfast Club, DJ Envy asked the super producer if a Verzuz between Lil Kim and Nicki Minaj was still on the table. Swizz Beatz kept it on the hush-hush but revealed there was something in the works. "I can't say, I can't say," said Swizz. DJ Envy quickly throws in, "So there's still a possibility?" However, Swizz Beats kept a tight lip saying, "Yeah, I can't say. I can't say. But just know if you're going to wait this long for Verzuz If we gone have you wait this long, it's definitely going to be worth it."
Swizz Beatz Hints At Lil Kim & Nicki Minaj Verzuz
Although Swizz Beatz didn't give a firm yes or no, the possibility of a showdown between the two Iconic MC's will suffice. The news sent fans into a frenzy wondering how a battle between the two artists will go down. One user commented that Nicki Minaj fans might not be mature enough for a Verzuz battle due to it customarily being about showing love, and respect, and giving our legends their flowers. However, many are just hyped that it's still on the table, to begin with.
Although, Swizz Beats did say, "If I'm being quiet, things are happening." Implying that his silence is analogous to a possible Verzuz deal being made. Don't fret Barbs and Lil Kim fans alike, there's still hope. Not only that Swizz also mentioned that they needed to take a break from Verzuz. He said, "It was important for us to take a break and organize what we have and actually understand what we have." While everyone instantly fell in love with Verzuz during the heat of the pandemic, he's right. Verzuz has come a long way since simply grabbing two icons to hop on IG Live and play their best songs. Can't be mad for Swizz wanting to perfect the product. Are you excited for this possible showdown? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
