Verzuz

Verzuz is an American webcast series created by record producers Timbaland and Swizz Beatz. It was introduced during the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic as a virtual DJ battle, with Timbaland and Swizz Beatz facing off in its first iteration through an Instagram Live broadcast in March 2020. The series invites two musicians, predominantly R&B and hip hop, such as Mario and Omarion, to highlight their discographies in two 10-song rounds during a three-hour session. Episodes have included battles between producers Teddy Riley/Babyface, singers Erykah Badu/Jill Scott, Brandy/Monica, Gladys Knight/Patti LaBelle, and rappers Ludacris/Nelly, as well as Jeezy/Gucci Mane.
