“Let that sink in👀👀👀God is great‼️‼️‼️ @verzuztv” -Timbaland’s Instagram
Gucci Mane Verzuz T.I. Could Happen
Recently, rap star Gucci Mane went to his Instagram page and acknowledged how much his Jeezy Verzuz meant to the popular competition’s brand. Mane also asked followers to let him know who is deserving of a face-off.
“I heard our battle @verzuztv broke numbers it was historic we run the culture who y’all want me to battle next ? ?? 😤🥶” -Gucci Mane’s Instagram
Gucci Mane’s Numbers Don’t Lie
The epic showdown between Gucci and Jeezy brought in millions of viewers. It also sparked over 3 million global tweets.
WOW. The numbers are officially in, and a huge thanks to all of you who tuned in as we broke our all-time livestream viewership record on Thursday night with the first episode of season two of Verzuz. On a minimum level, 9.1 MILLION people watched this epic, legendary showdown between @jeezy and @laflare1017 (As we saw across the country, there was a new phenomenon of Verzuz viewing parties, so that figure is not including those who gathered in large numbers together 🙏🏾😷).
This viewership number from last night actually makes Verzuz bigger in ratings than the MTV VMA’s, NBC’s The Voice, the Billboard Awards, the CMA’s, the Latin Grammy’s, Dancing With The Stars or The Masked Singer respectively on any given night for those primetime shows this year. OUR culture has made us the top show in the world for music outside of The Grammy’s. Thank you infinitely! 🙏🏾
