Kinda dragging them for being on their phones and being disengaged during each other's songs
:plzstop:
They're on IG live as we speak discussing it. Swizz is pissed
:kii:
Glad they're dragging these shitty DJs. I'm crying
Was it professional for him to leave GODshonda at the studio while he went to go fuck Alicia :guys:
fuck him
but yea it was a mess
yeah i mean what did you expect. the versus is ran its course a bit.. unless you get lil kim and someone who is on her level. there arent really any other versuz to do lolz
Firstly, u got Ashanti and Keyshia Cole. Mistake #1
These untalented hoes shouldn't have even been given this platform to begin with. Keyshia has a few cute songs though

i kinda feel like Ashanti lowered herself to do it tbh
I mean ... maybe Ashanti vs Ciara would've been better tbh

On the contrary, I think the pairing was quite perfect. Just one we didn't need to see..........or one that should've taken place at the beginning of the VZ thing. At this point, the platform is above keyshia and Ashanti
Yeah
Bran vs Mons was really a force huh
Only Bey/Rih and Riah/Jans would be more powerful

Why do you think it's above Keyshia and Ashanti? I mean it's not like they were one hit wonder flops. They both had successful careers

We just been moving up and up. We on legends and shit now. I feel like having them was a step BACK and I think alot of people feel that way. This was the only vz I saw more people clowning the participants rather than actually celebrating them
They need to elevate the production. Folks sitting down on chairs and playing songs, its old and tired. They need to get them back in the same room again and have an actual band, background singers, or whatever. Like, give us an actual SHOW. Beenie Man and Bounty Killer are the only 1s that actually gave us entertainment value.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's a fucking mess how they discounted their Versus
it's all a matter of whether the rib shack sponsorship is putting up enough coins for all that
The more bare minimum the mess is, the more they pocket from those sponsors
And I think a big part of the appeal for the artists is how laid back it is
just dress up a bit , show up and sing along
I think the more demanding the showmanship aspect of the series becomes , the more reluctant some artists will be about going thru all of it , especially if the pay isn't really there like that.
The girls are gonna want COIN if they gotta do rehearsals and all that other mess

All of the entertainers are idle right now so I don't think they mind putting in the effort when they get hundreds of thousands of viewers and are trending #1 on social media.
Them amping up the production is ruining it for me. People are going to tune in regardless and it's not adding anything to show.
And Doritos??? Really???

i actually thought the sets were kinda "busy" for Ashanti and keysh Too
Too much going on ... those big tacky chairs ... whatever decor was going on ....
It's reminding me of when khia and Maddie decided to take things from that simple table in the living room and build an entire TV set downstairs nfnfnfnfnf
Sometimes simplicity just works
But if ur gonna spice it up , make sure it's clean

Why do they think the general public is satisfied with watching artists sit there and play their songs with no production or commentary?

I get that. And at first when the lockdowns just started, we was cool with it. Now its just tired and they gotta do something diff to spice shit up. Going back to Bennie and Bounty again, they didnt have a band or anything huge, but they put on a SHOW show. But I guess dancehall artists are known for that. Unrehearsed, just gimme a mic and they clash. Play a random instrumental and I'll sing / spit all my songs on it and go back and forth with it.
I honestly tuned in and watched them do their 1st songs and after that, I was like, aint no way I'm gonna sit thru 2hrs of them doing this shit. ESPECIALLY when the chemistry was so off and u can tell Keyshia's ass was in a bad mood from the very beginning. She herself didnt wanna just sit her ass down in a chair.
Forget the band and bg singers then. Have the DJs side by side, artists stand side by side, no sitting down, and go at it. Instead of having their hype men out of the camera view, show them going off. Even the Brandy / Monica Verzuz, it woulda been cool to see Sonja, Ray J, Camper go awfff w/ Bran doing the I Wanna Be Down dance. Woulda been cute to see Brandy and Ray J dancing and singing along to Best Friend. Make it a fucking party!! Clubs are opened now - folks aint gotta sit down and watch a Verzuz battle to be entertained anymore.

it was kind of a snooze
After GODsha played you've changed I kinda checked tf owt of it all
I do think just letting the artists move around a bit would help fbhfhfjdnfj sitting in a chair doing a cute two step bop with Doritos cool ranch behind them is just too bland

I thought Camper and Ray J were annoying AF at first, but during rewatches it made it more fun. The only problem was that it was only one sided and it made it more awkward because Monica's people weren't as hype.
I think Verzuz needs to figure out whether to keep it scaled back or go full all out. Either have these people in their homes and relaxed ( no frills) so we can chill to it, or go all out and put on a real show in the same space (when its safe) so we can party to it.
I want for them to get back to a producer verzuz or a songwriter verzuz again. Its been a while. Darkchild, Missy, Diddy, Pharell, Jermaine Dupri, lets get back to that. Some of those were more fun than the artists themselves. It was cool to kinda learn who wrote and produced what songs.
Even though it was a lame pairing, the audience was great. Their audience was the same as Bran and Monica, maybe even a little more. So I don't think folks are tired of this formula just yet.

Yea, the whole thing was CHEAP in every way possible. It was honestly a step back for the Versuz brand. No shade.
i didn't know ppl actually expected production! from these
this was never anything more to me than a cute lil revisiting of some hits and familiar faces to pass the time during this damn pandemic. if the gors wanted to go all out cool, but i never felt it was necessary. ppl watching this mess on their phone while doing their toes.
