When the Verzuz battle concept was introduced and started off by Swizz Beatz and Timbaland during the heart of the COVID-19 pandemic, music fans were hooked.
Since 2020, the Verzuz battle has been a highly anticipated, virtual broadcast that induces nostalgia each time it airs on Instagram Live. So far there have been a few supreme Verzuz battles that have captivated audiences, like Jill Scott’s Verzuz with Erykah Badu and Soulja Boy’s Verzuz with Bow Wow, prompting music lovers to petition for artists of their choice to go toe-to-toe in a Verzuz battle. Among the several artists that I foresee doing a Verzuz battle at some point, here are the 19 Verzuz battles that need to happen ASAP.
1. Mary J. Bilge vs. Faith Evans

Medianews Group / MediaNews Group via Getty ImagesA Verzuz battle between Bey and Rihanna is long overdue. Rihanna had the chance to become the artist and mogul she is today because of Beyoncé, literally. After Rihanna auditioned for then-Def Jam CEO, L.A. Reid, circa 2005, Beyoncé told Reid that “that Rihanna girl” was a “beast,” per Reid’s memoir. Despite Queen Bey supposedly complimenting Rihanna to Reid, there has still been an alleged rivalry. Rihanna and Bey doing a Verzuz would have the same effect as when Monica and Brandy did theirs.

Johnny Louis / Getty ImagesJa Rule and 50 Cent have had an ongoing rivalry since the late 1990s, competing against each other on the early 2000s Billboard charts and battling one another off the charts. A Verzuz between Ja Rule and 50 Cent would be historical because they are both major fixtures in hip-hop and have a comical hip-hop feud that would make for a great battle.

Ron Davis / Getty ImagesTLC and SWV were two of the biggest girl groups of the 1990s. Although SWV has already battled R&B girl group Xscape, they should’ve went up against TLC.

Kevin Mazur / Getty Images for dcpSZA and Jhené Aiko are the leaders of the alternative R&B movement, and are beloved for their sexy spiritualistic approach to music-making. Seeing SZA and Aiko in a Verzuz battle would be a healing situation.

Rb / GC ImagesUsher and Justin Timberlake dominated the Billboard charts in the late ’90s and early 2000s, and Timberlake was practically the white version of Usher in the 2000s. It would be awesome for these two mega artists to do a Verzuz, specifically because of how many hits each R&B star has.
