A weird selection, but will definitely be tuning in?

Where in the IG clip did they announce it, though?

actually, I always wanted Ghost vs Cam since a lot of people on the Coli think Cam a better artist :francis:. also Jim said aint nobody beating Dips in a Verzus. Ghost dont have a ton of hits but his discography is crazy. a lot of people slept on Wu Block and 12 Reasons. His last album was solid too!
I doubt anything from those albums getting burn in a verses.

Supreme Clientele getting underrated in here.:patrice:

I agree that OB4CL is massively influential, but I can hear SC vibes in a lot of the underground NY cats who are out now too. Ghost/SC damn near birthed Westside Gunn's whole rap persona. Man even called his debut album Supreme Blientele. I'd even go as far as saying cats like Mach Hommy have that lineage in their work too. I can't say it's either one or the other - shyt is all part of the patchwork that makes up the modern goon wave.

Not underrated. Just not on par with OB4CL. Let’s be honest :hhh:

This is perfect. People need to realise the real meaning of verzuz. Its a celebration not an actual battle. Obviously we joke about who won and whatever but its just a fun time and experience. How did yall watch that Beanie man and Bounty verzuz and not want more of that type of experience. Jill and Erykah too. Hell even Snoop and Dmx were so much of a celebration. Its not a real competition.

Lets enjoy. :blessed:

This...

We're definitely gettin' all the favorites they rocked on together... and they'll get to drop some of their classic solo songs or verses from other Wu songs... definitely gonna be a live-ass night. Nobody's gettin' "washed" cause it ain't a actual battle.

No-one said on par with OB4CL, but when Just and Kanye came out of their own mouths and said their work on 'The Blueprint' which put them both on the map and set off the early 00's soul wave - was directly inspired by Ghost's sound on 'Supreme Clientele' - yeah - that album has earned its place on lists of influential hip-hop's albums regardless of how you feel about it in relation to Cuban Linx.

Recalling the impact of Supreme, Kanye said, “Me and Just love Ghostface so much, that’s (Roc-A-Fella Records executive) Hip-Hop’s favorite rapper and one of my favorite rappers, so we were trying to make all these beats for Ghostface but just so happens we’re at Roc-A-Fella and Jay heard them and rapped on them. We were making all these beats for Ghostface because we get so inspired by his albums… I feel like I got my whole style from Ghostface. Listen to what I’m saying, I need that in print, I feel like I got my whole style from Ghostface.”

Following the formula of Supreme, Just Blaze and Kanye West went on to create the majority of JAY-Z’s classic The Blueprint the next year.

Thanks

The Meth VS Chef song gave me the idea.

Meth VS Chef, bring that shyt!

If Verzuz is gonna do it with two guys who are unofficially a group, it can't just be song versus song.


:mjlol: I thought about



"Yo, Ghost! Youze a funny nikka! :mjgrin:
Turn on the radio! All you hear is X and Jigga! :troll:
Ha haaaa! You vexxed. nikkaaaaa! :umad:"
