They are likely charging for this matchup cause maybe the artists involved are looking to be compensated for their time but have something rare for the viewers.

It's a post-Valentine Day special that likely isn't the same as the previous Verzuz and probably has something special in-store :yeshrug:.

I don't think this will be a continual thing tho.

It's not a big deal.

Swizz said it was gonna stay free and it was for ‘us’ and ‘the culture’ then sold out to white. Once they cashed out, Swizz and Timbo has to accept the words coming their way afterwards. Just like Jay and Tidal, they pimped out the terms ‘us’ and ‘black owned’ with that then he sold out to white, he’d have gotten heat if people cared about Tidal like that
because people didn't want to do it for free... and they have to pay the people appearing

what is hard to understand? :dahell:

during lockdown people did it for free because there was no shows and they had time stuck at home. they want money to perform now.

you got pimped? :skip:

ENTITLEMENT is nasty

the way people reacting in here tells you why most hip hop media entities are not Black owned today. there's a reason some random jewish kids cashed out on rap genius idea. where you don't see value others will

If Swizz Tim and Jay gaslight black people into supporting something and boost its value only to sell out to white, that’s their right as business men, and it was the right move financially, but they gotta take whatever words they get from it as public figures. It’s unscrupulous business on Triller end to game people into monthly subscriptions to something with no schedule. It’s on that white company to put on a show people would pay for. People have said NO to PPV concerts for 35 years. There isn’t shyt entitled about it.

NOPE to the bold. Swizz and timb said for the culture and have kept it that way. Giving the free performers shares in the sale was unprecedented.

yes you are entitled if you are demanding free content

nobody should be this fired up that they are trying to run a profitable business. it's just easier to not pay or watch.

entitlement is ugly you don't have to pay and you don't have to watch

shyt isn't complicated



how is it greed?:stopitslime:

"charging out the gate" been 2 years :stopitslime:

lets be honest nikkaz don't value each other or Black business. 2 years of free shows and now it's how dare they charge 2.99. but a lot of people will spend that on coffee with no thoughts or complaints.

What's worse is half the people complaining weren't even gonna watch this verzuz regardless of where it was posted
