Swizz Beatz and Timbaland recently sat down with The Breakfast Club, where they revealed that Dr. Dre was supposed to announce his Verzuz battle at the end of Babyface and Teddy Riley’s battle. However, the legendary entertainer was turned off by the technical issues that happened during their battle.
Swizz explained, “When Dr. Dre wasn’t feeling the sound from Teddy Riley and Babyface, that hurt our heart. Oh my God. He was supposed to come at the end and announce that he was gon’ do VERZUZ that night… He got on the phone, he was like ‘man, I can’t be a part of nothing that sound like that, my legacy is quality’. I was like ‘oh, we just lost Dre’… that one felt pretty crazy.”
