Verzuz Returns With Exciting Lineup & Platform Adjustments

In the midst of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, many events and activities have had to be put on hold. One of the most popular virtual events that emerged during this time was Verzuz, the brainchild of music producers Swizz Beatz and Timbaland. The platform allowed musicians to showcase their talents and compete against each other, while fans were able to tune in from the safety of their homes. However, Verzuz had to take a hiatus due to a legal matter and the changing landscape of the entertainment industry.

In a recent interview with REVOLT, Swizz Beatz confirmed that Verzuz will be making a comeback with some adjustments. He explained that they have been changing the infrastructure to accommodate the evolution of the platform. Verzuz initially started in a garage and moved to a more significant platform, but now they are changing the whole way they operate. However, Swizz reassured fans that these changes will not make it feel like a completely different experience.

Photos by Tracy Nguyen. More than 20 million people have watched Verzuz performances on Instagram Live since they started in March. Music producer Timbaland was at home drinking wine when he decided to entice (perhaps taunt) his producer friend Swizz Beatz. He posted three videos of himself making music—or playing it while talking about how great it made him feel—to his Instagram feed and tagged his buddy.
 
Before the coronavirus pandemic, the two had discussed going on tour, playing hits from their catalogs and bringing on collaborators at each stop. Now that Covid-19 had stranded them at home, Timbaland wanted to revive the idea as a virtual concert: “I said, ‘I think we should just do it now.’ ” Read the rest HERE!

Timbaland VS. Swizz Beatz Beat Battle At Summer Jam 2018

Here is finally the Timbaland VS. Swizz Beatz Beat Battle, you can check it out HERE.

Swizz Beatz Talks Beat Battle With Timbaland

It’s a bright sunny day in Miami Beach. Swizz Beatz is preparing for his “No Commission” art show inside his new beachfront condo, which is unlike any gallery or exhibit you’ll see at Art Basel 2017, Vibe sat down with Swizz Beats to talk about his upcoming projects and his Beat Battle with Timbaland. “I feel that hip-hop can use an injection, and I think they ready for it, too,” Swizz said about the album. “The Fab and Jada [“Theme Music”] joint was like a test. That’s just the warm-up. Even with the battle with me and Tim, we had to push that back to until the top of the year. I think we’re dropping our albums on the same day, so we’ll see. It’s all fun, though.”

The hype for the Swizz Beatz vs. Timbaland beat battle has been high since Swizz called him out at the Mayweather VS. McGregor World Tour last summer. Over the last few months, Timbaland has also been busy working on a few collaborations of his own and hasn’t been pushing for a date as of late. However, Swizz is ready whenever he is. “It’ll be more celebration than a battle,” Swizz sincerely points out. “I just want to change that word around a little bit. So battle is like ‘kill each other,’ right? You know, but we’re really celebrating each other by even having the respect to do that. We’re going to treat it like a sport. Come in with your game face, I’ll come with my game face and [we’ll] do what we need to do. Tim is not an easy guy; he ain’t no pushover. I’m not an easy guy either so this is a good one. It’s for the culture anyway. At the end of the day, nobody loses because the culture wins.”

Jay-Z Feat. Nas, Justin Timberlake, Beyoncé, Swizz Beatz, Pharrell, Timbaland - "BBC"

YIKES! This one pretty epic song to have so many people featured on it, I got a feeling though there's more lyrics to it than just this unless the rhythm is laid out in such a way that there is no need for much lyrics at all, let's just hope the Timbo/Beatz production work is up to scratch.
Any guesses on what "BBC"? stands for? (No not "British Broadcasting Corporation") I believe it stands for "Billionaire Boys Club", I remember him rapping that term somewhere? Can't remember the song.
There's been also numerous adverts for "Magna Carter Holy Grail" with Timbaland in them, we'd be here forever watching them, so instead here's one with what I assume could be "BBC" or otherwise be the bonus track on the album "Holy Grail" with Justin Timberlake:

Alright alright, here you go, I'll cut to the chase: Rick Rubin, Jay-Z, Timbaland, Pharrell and Swizz Beatz working on Hova's new album... Make sure to keep checking on www.magnacartaholygrail.com
