Since its onset, #VERZUZ has been a social media phenomenon that’s not only locked some of Urban music’s most beloved characters in a hit-for-hit duel but also seen fans create fantasy versions to assess how their faves would fare if squared.
As it’s been a critical knockout for the slew of big names who have graced the platforms to date, calls for prospective contenders have only risen and include names like Chris Brown (click here to read more), Usher, Beyoncé, Keyshia Cole, Ashanti, and more.
Among the names thrown in the ring for a potential battle is 2000’s rapper Bow Wow. Despite previously asserting openness to battling fellow emcee Fabolous, the ‘Bounce with Me’ beau has since retracted said interest even as fans are pushing for a round-for-round bout with Soulja Boy.
Once our friends at TSR shared Bow’s latest weigh-in on the prospect, Timbaland – one of the #VERZUZ creators – offered a criticism that must’ve gotten under the ‘Growing Up Hip Hop’ star’s skin.

Oop! #Timbaland stepped into #TheShadeRoom to respond to #BowWow 👀 Thoughts?
After Timbo suggested Bow may not even have enough hits to contend, the 33-year-old clapped back with:
Why do these people keep living in their past? What are you doing NOW?
Right…. just like f*******. what’s she doing now? Huh? Y’all still talking about her one year old single motivation.
Ain’t nobody wanna see a little bow wow verses. He wants to go against Fabolous HA! That’s like saying Lil’ Mama goes up Remy Ma or hell even Iggy.
Did timberland lie tho??
Where’s the lie, Lil Bow Wow? You wanna put your kiddie raps penned by TI against Fab… the jokes write themselves
Bow Wow does have 10 Billboard Hot 100 Top 40 hits to his credit, as the main artist. Better showings on U.S R&B and U.S. Rap. One multi-plat album, two platinum, two gold albums. Six #1 hits on U.S. Rap. Not too bad. Source: Billboard.com
Gurl, I’m embarrassed for him.
What a flop
And I use to think he upgraded ciara and helped Ciara’s career, instead it’s the other way around
You should be embarrassed for horseface calabo 🤣
First man debut #95
🤣🤣🤣🤣 how we live to see it 😚
The definition of hit is what makes vs so muggy
I remember one lil bow wow song
I don’t think he has 20 hits, but that’s also true for most of the artists who have battled. The average person has probably 10 solid hits.
I love me some Bow wow. Hmmm, he’s like Jessie Williams without blue eyes but he’s still fine af. Hopefully he will doing something on onlyFans, I would like to see some of his pee pee videos. Hopefully his 🍆isn’t a peewee
? He’s a minion
I know … ONE song of his.
Should battle solo Omarion.
Since he has THAT MUCH 💞 4 O.
