Oh yeah 03 Bonnie and Clyde is what's gonna win this

OP had a bunch of Jay hits. That's what y'all are so hung up on, right? Jay's hits?

 

[Stick Up Kid]

Camron played "Welcome to New York City, with Jay Z... IN NEW YORK.... and got 0 buzz..

Jada dropped Ja Rule's "New York" and crowd went crazy.

Jesus H Christ Jay would get slaughtered if this was the match up.

 

[TheAnointedOne]

Jay-Z is a very insecure person no way in hell would he ever do something like this.

[CrimsonTider]

he has more charting songs than Jada

no he doesn’t have more songs people know than jada

 

[EndDomination]

Empire over NY

you cant speak on Verzuz no more breh

Empire State of Mind was an international hit, went 4x platinum
NY State of Mind is a classic, but it isn't winning any versus battles

 

[Standing on business]

Nas fans in here creating hypothetical song matchups to favor Nas, and even then those matchups aren’t going to go how you think they are.


How nikkas creating song matchups and excluding ain’t no love


Nas fans really think it’s gon go one way with that NYSOM vs Empire State of mind matchup but it’s going to go the other. One was a way more bigger, more catchier, and more rememberable song than the other.

 

[EndDomination]

mass appeal songs doesn't really mean anything, as we've seen in past verzuz. It helps, but it can also hinder, depending on what's played

When has playing a song with mass appeal ever hurt an artist in a Verzuz?

 

[Standing on business]

shyt fukk wit me you know I got it will prolly get the crowd more hype than most Nas tracks.
