After two delays due to COVID-19, the Verzuz battle between Keyshia Cole and Ashanti has set a new date. Thursday, January 21 is when it the anticipated showdown is scheduled to happen between the two R&B vets.
“RAIN, SLEET, HAIL, SNOW LET’S GO… Join us Thursday, January 21st as we kick off the first #VERZUZ of 2021 with @Ashanti and @KeyshiaCole,” the official Verzuz account announced in an Instagram post on Tuesday evening.
“Thank you everyone for being patient with us. We can’t wait for this magical night with Keyshia and Ashanti!”The two were originally supposed to to go head to head in an in-person battle on December 12th, but it was postponed after learning Ashanti tested positive for COVID-19.
The second scheduled date was January 9th but that was also pushed back. Although the 3rd date is scheduled, fans won’t be seeing them together under one roof. Verzuz just recently announced that they would go back to having the artists perform from separate locations, like they did at the start of quarantine lockdown.
