Diddy Snubs Jermaine Dupri, Claims He Would Smash Him in a Verzus Battle

Sean Combs, commonly known as Diddy, clapped back against comments from Jermaine Dupri, claiming Jermaine doesn’t have enough hits to compete against him in a Verzuz battle. The producer replied to Jermaine’s tweet at him, where Jermaine stated Diddy “gon need some training for me.”

Though fans would love to see a battle between the two producers, Diddy previously cited Dr. Dre as the only opponent he’d consider going head-to-head with. Dupri challenged Diddy during the Verzuz battle between Fat Joe and Ja Rule at the Hulu Theater in Madison Square Garden.

Diddy’s Scathing Response

The New York rapper responded, stating:

“Beloved you my n*gga but your arms too short to box with God!!! You aint got enough hits. I’ll smash you with just biggie n Mary . But I do have the upmost respect on you as a musical legend. Dre the only one can get in the ring w me . – LOVE.”  The New York rapper responded.

Some fans felt some type of way about Diddy’s claims, and were quick to point out that Jermaine has production credits for artists such as Xscape and Bow Wow.  He has also produced records for industry giants like TLC, Da Brat, and Mariah Carey.

Other fans worry that the 51-year-old rapper turned business mogul may have bitten more than he can chew by challenging Dr. Dre to a Verzuz battle.

Jermaine Durpi is a more formidable opponent for Diddy than Dr. Dre.

Dr Dre would SMOKE Diddy in Verzuz. him and JD is more of a match up than he’s willing to acknowledge

It’s unclear whether Verzuz organizers Swizz Beatz and Timbaland will actually bring Dr. Dre to perform against Diddy or not. If it happens, it would be the most anticipated battle since R&B legends Brandy and Monica competed back in August 2020.

Rapper T.I., chiming in on the issue, compared Diddy’s response to 50 Cent’s attitude towards a potential Verzus between  himself and T.I.

 “I disagree. Side note: Why do I feel NY n*ggaz (Most of which I love,look up to, appreciate and respect)always feel like they so much above competition with their Atlanta (southern)constituents???? @50Cent ducking me the same way.”
