Usher Says Chris Brown Verzuz Isn’t Happening

Usher has dashed the hopes of fans around the world by denying reports of an upcoming Verzuz battle with Chris Brown. “There was a flyer that was put together. It’s not official, no, we’re not doing that,” the R&B icon told E!

“But I can appreciate what I see. Nah, there’s no Verzuz. I don’t think y’all ready for nothing like that. You might be ready for something like that on stage, maybe in the future,” he added.

The reports swirled around after Breezy spoke about potentially squaring off against the “Yeah” singer during a Drink Champs interview.

“They want me to do it with Usher,” he said. “It only makes sense, but it’s got to make more sense. I can’t act like he ain’t a pioneer as well– that’s Usher. I think it would be something good for the fans.”

Usher’s Tiny Desk interview became a sensation overnight and now fans want him to step into the Verzuz arena.

Back in 2020, Chris Brown insinuated he’ll defeat Usher off features alone. Brown ascertained he will take the win in any battle if at all he decides to participate.

“What we not gone do is CAP,” the singer wrote on Instagram Stories. “I could do a vs off features alone… So I’ll humbly decline… I’m busy doing nothing.”
