Erykah Badu and Jill Scott are the next artists set to face off in an Instagram live “Verzuz Battle”. The iconic singer-songwriters will DJ their own songs on Saturday, May 9th, at 7 pm ET.
The popular quarantine music series was started by Swizz Beatz and Timbaland, and has included face-offs between Teddy Riley and Babyface, RZA and DJ Premier, Hit-Boy and Boi-1da, and the recently postponed matchup between Bone Thugs-N-Harmony and Three 6 Mafia. Timbaland and Mr. Beatz announced the newest bout in coordinated Instagram statements, with Swizz writing, “
It’s time for the Queens to represent.”
Johntá Austin, who had previously been slaughtered competed in a battle against Ne-Yo, left a comment that summed up the national mood: “Wine will be poured. Incense will be burned. Music will be heard. Love will be made.” Tune in to Instagram a week from tomorrow, if for no other reason than to see who plays their own particular version of The Roots’ “You Got Me” first.
