T.I. has turned down a possible VERZUZ battle with Busta Rhymes. Busta challeged Tip to a battle on Fat Joe's IG Live, saying, “I’m begging you to step in the ring with me. I’ma bust your a**. We gon’ do it with grace, but I’ma bust your a**. Come on, T.I. Let’s have fun.”
Tip responded on Instagram, saying, “I respect my elders, no cap. I didn’t know we were reaching back through generations. There’s a huge generational gap there, isn’t it?”
He continued, “No disrespect at all, but y’all wouldn’t put Brandy up against Dionne Warwick. It’s kinda like Mike Tyson and George Foreman…or Mike Tyson and [Muhammad] Ali.”
He suggested Busta battle LL Cool J, Method Man or Fat Joe.
JEEZY WANTS ALL THE SMOKE
Meanwhile, during his live, when someone asked if he would battle Jeezy, T.I. said "if Young wanted this smoke, he'd say it." Jeezy responded, "I dont know what you avoiding me for. . . . since it mean that much to you, put a date on it. I ain't gonna meet you there, I'm a meet you there."
Tip responded, "Could this long time constituent of mine be referring to me???"
