Weather The Storm

Nelly ultimately took a hard hit because of his location. The Missouri native reportedly dealt with bad weather around his area.

Severe weather in St. Louis didn’t stop Nelly and Ludacris from exchanging hits Saturday in the latest edition of Verzuz on Instagram Live. The two rappers were set to go live at 7 p.m., but repeated issues with a Wi-Fi signal on Nelly’s part caused delays and even lack of audio at times. St. Louis, where Nelly lives, was dealing with strong thunderstorms, winds and possible hail Saturday, according to the National Weather Service.

Wait, There’s More

The hip-hop veterans made sure to put respect on each other’s names. Both Luda and Nelly shouted each other out for putting out quality music during the early 2000’s.

Last night, the hip-hop superstars went round for round in a battle of hits, revisiting iconic fan-favorite tracks. Nelly and Luda kicked off the event by acknowledging each other’s achievements. “Your longevity is impeccable, it’s worth commending, you know what I mean?” Nelly told Ludacris. “You bust ass every year to make sure you were coming for the No. 1 spot … It’s my pleasure and it’s an honor today, my brother, to be rocking with you. I’m glad that our rookie class is the best class of our hip-hop era.” (HIGHSNOBIETY)

Before You Go

During the broadcast, Luda pulled out an unexpected wild card. The Atlanta native shared a first-ever listen to a new record with rap star Lil Wayne.
