Calls for iconic R&B boy bands Jodeci and Dru Hill to face off in a #VERZUZ battle have rang out for almost as long as the Timbaland and Swizz Beatz-helmed platform has been “a thing.”
Debate about who would take home the crown if the groups ever dueled hit a feverish pitch over the summer, leading the latter’s lead singer, Sisqo, to add his two cents to the ongoing conversation recently.
Look inside to hear what the 43-year-old had to say about the matter.
After a talk about the topic was reignited thanks to social media comedian KevOnStage via a video and tweet (as seen above), Sisqo took to the net to make clear he not only thought Dru Hill could “hang” but that they would be the victors if ever challenged to a VERZUZ.
Needless to say, the ‘Got to Get It’ hitmaker’s assessment got under the skin of Jodeci fans.
“We love Jodeci, but yeah, it’s definitely a massacre,” Sisqo said. “Don’t do it. Don’t do it. You don’t want that smoke.”

The taunt comes nearly a year after Dru Hill first challenged Jodeci and Boyz II Men to appear as competition on the VERZUZ platform.
As of time reported, no official plans have been announced to make it happen.
Your thoughts?
LMAO this the same delusional arrogance that ended Sissiqo careful back in 2001 When he publicly dissr
LMAO this the same delusional arrogance that help end Sissiqo career back in 2001 when he publicly dissed Usher and R.Kelly. Plus Dru Hill Isn’t even in Jodeci or Boyz 2 Men league when it comes to hits and album sales. Furthermore Sissiqo copied his and stole his entire singing style and runs from K-CI.
Let’s tell the truth. Jodeci has sold twice as many albums as Dru Hill, but they have zero #1s and a single top 10 hit while Dru Hill has one #1 and four top 10s. Jodeci has three gold certifications for their singles while Dru Hill has four gold, one silver and one platinum. Clearly Dru Hill has Jodeci beat when it comes to the hits, and the hits are what wins these battles.
LMAO its funny when people only wanna tell the truth that fits their narrative. Lets tell the entire TRUTH…which is that Dru Hill only Billboard Hot 100 #1 single was a feature on Will Smith Wild Wild West. Which I’m pretty sure they wouldn’t even wanna include or perform in a Versus lol.
Now on the R&B and hip-hop chart Jodeci have more #1’s and top 10’s. I guarantee you Jodeci #1’s on the R&B and hip-hop chart are more classic and timeless than the 4 top 10 songs that Dru Hill have on the Hot 100.
Album sales tell the TRUE story cause we all know plenty of artist with top 10 Hot 100 hits but not one classic or successful album. Jodeci album sales along with their hits tells you the fans loved them more. So for Sissiqo to act like his group is just so obviously above them is exactly why what happened to his career happened.
TINO dropped nothing but truth bombs
Umm…I don’t think so. Jodeci has more classics in my opinion, not to mention the KCi and Jojo separate hits.
