As a final surprise guest, Jadakiss came through for his verse and shut the whole place down. The only way to end this Verzuz battle was the two praising each other, and performing New York, New York. Between Ashanti’s all black leather dress and Remy’s yellow cheetah print puffer coat and biker shorts, the ladies may be winners of the night, for real. Fat Joe gifted Ashanti and Remy Ma new Birkin bags for their performances. I am not sure people understand that Ashanti is STILL it, and we need to see her continue to perform in this light. During their time, the ladies had fun, but it was in the midst of COVID, both had gone through COVID scares, and each performed virtually, sitting on chairs. Her performances were fantastic, and I truly want her and Keyshia Cole to run back their Verzuz after this performance. Ashanti looked amazing, and sounded incredible. She preformed two songs with Ja, and What’s Luv with Joe. To make things even more poppin’, Ashanti made her well-expected surprise guest. Fat Joe brought out Nelly in later rounds for Get It Poppin', which surely got the crowd going.
However, he made sure to double back on this later and praise the women. Things did get a little iffy when Joe told Ja to feed the girls, insinuating that they are no longer relevant, and likely no longer wealthy. Ja continued to play on the idea of Remy carrying Joe, though he ended up bringing out Lil Mo and Vita two rounds later. The back and forth was outrageous, especially once Joe brought Remy Ma out as the first surprise guest. Fat Joe telling Ja Rule to do some of his own songs, Ja telling Joe he had no real hits. Joe wore a brown and orange Louis Vuitton jacket and pant set, definitely the winner of the battle when it came to the fits.Ī lot of trash talk went down during the fight. Tonight, Ja opted for a black tee and denim. Fat Joe makes fun of Ja Rule’s fashion, specifically about him wearing cardigans. You will need just over three hours to watch the whole night, but the battles starts just around the one hour mark. The battle can be found on the FITE app rewatch for free. Would it stand the test of hits battles? You’ll find out when you continue reading this recap. Ja and Joe each have massive hit records from the early 2000s, and have a good friendship today. His presence has been felt at Verzuz through the Ashanti battle, reminding everyone of all the hits they had together, let alone tapping into his entire catalog. Ja Rule was the perfect person to come and battle against Joey Crack. Joe was in the crowd and The Lox Verzuz Dipset battle, and was seeming to have an amazing time. Fat Joe and Ja Rule took over New York City last night for an epic Verzuz Battle.
