Snoop Dogg will take on DMX at the Verzuz ‘Battle of the Dogs’
Following up Jadakiss’ vs Fabolous in the virtual Verzuz arena, these two veterans go head to head. Snoop Dogg and DMX have been tagged by Timbaland and Swizz Beatz to face off in the highly popular Instagram Live battle series on July 22.
“The battle of the dogs @DMX vs @SnoopDogg Wednesday, July 22nd on #VERZUZ,” the account tweeted on Tuesday (July 14). Watch on our IG or @AppleMusic in HD. Drinks by @Ciroc.”
Snoop and X have been asking for others to join them in the Verzuz ring, most notably JAY-Z. The D-O-Double-G has made numerous attempts to be known as Hov’s challenger after some attempted to pair Snoop in a mythical Verzuz battle with 50 Cent.
“This is me looking in from the outside, looking at New York rap,” Snoop told Fat Joe in May. “So to me, it would be either Snoop versus JAY-Z because he has been the king of New York around the time I was the king of the west.”
Joe replied, “That sounds like the ultimate battle: Snoop Dogg against JAY-Z.”
Verzuz was launched in March by hip-hop producers Timbaland and Swizz Beatz. Starting life as a 20-song showdown between evenly matched producers, the series has also come to enlist writers and performers.
