"I’d heard the talks, I heard the rumblings so I knew that there was a chance of it actually happening. Mixtape king and trap music legend DJ Drama, on the other hand, was ready to hope: “Yeah, I initially believed it," he reveals. It had that old Pen & Pixel design so I figured some random person online and the internet did what the internet does. “The original flyer promoting it was cheesy. “"I thought it was a hoax when I first heard about it” he admits. Nick Love, former VP of Marketing & Promotions for Jeezy’s Corporate Thug Entertainment was one of many who doubted the two rappers would actually go head-to-head, song-for-song in a virtual battle. The two rappers share a beef that goes back 15 years, involving failed collaborations, diss tracks, slick comments in interviews, subtweets, scuffles between respective crews in the streets of Atlanta and death. If there was ever a time where we needed to see two warring adversaries come together for the greater good, 2020 is it, and hopefully tonight’s Verzuz between Gucci Mane and Jeezy will be that beacon.
