Earlier in the week, Rhymes joined Fat Joe on Instagram Live where the two rap icons chatted about music and the upcoming elections. During the conversation, Rhymes also challenged his good friend T.I. to a Verzuz battle.
T.I. has declined the challenge, saying that the generational gap is too big between them for a proper face-off on Verzuz.
