Video: Watch Erykah Badu vs. Jill Scott VERZUZ Battle
The most entertaining VERZUZ battle took place on Saturday night on IG live! Swizz Beatz and Timbaland curated the Erykah Badu vs. Jill Scott song battle for the world to enjoy. Everyone expected chill vibes, incense and sage burning and that’s exactly what it felt like.
Jill sipped her wine while Erykah sipped her tea as the ladies were as humble as ever. So humble that they both played the same first song by The Roots ‘You Got Me’ which featured Erykah but Jill Scott sang live for an extended version. they both went through their catalog and we were surprised when Erykah didn’t play ‘Call Tyrone.’ The ladies garnered over 750k viewers and over 1 billion impressions. And, not to mention the sound was perfect, no visual pauses or disruptions proving for an overall smooth battle that lasted over 3 hours.
