ONLINE CLASH SERIES
Artists Timbaland and Swizz Beats began the online rap battle which has since partnered with Apple Music earlier this month.
Verzuz previously featured the face-off between Erykah Badu and Jill Scott, T-Pain and Lil Jon, Fabolous and Jadakiss, and most recently, DMX and Snoop Dogg.
The upcoming rappers, Rick Ross and 2 Chainz were initially set to go on tour together but it was canceled due to the current pandemic.

LOOKING FOR THE NEXT COMPETITORS
Timbaland already began scouting for the next set of entertainers to go head-to-head by asking his audience for their best line up.
Previously, Tedd Riley went up against Babyface on the highly-anticipated Verzuz combat and had all his eight children supporting him.
Among those highly suggested are Missy Elliott, who herself jokingly called a battle with herself using her nicknames Missy and Misdemeanor.

Another suggestion was a showdown between the R&B groups, SWV and Xscape which Elliott agreed would be good.
Juicy J also came forward with a possible battle between himself and Nas, replying to Timbaland’s initial question to the audience.
TEDD RILEY VS BABYFACE
Previously, Tedd Riley went up against Babyface on the highly-anticipated Verzuz combat and had all his eight children supporting him.
Unfortunately, their battle's original date was pushed back due to Babyface’s coronavirus diagnosis which also infected his family.
Before revealing his sickness, fans slammed Riley, claiming he was the reason for the postponement yet he remained quiet to protect Babyface who wanted his condition to stay private at first.
