Verzuz, an Instagram Live series founded by Swizz Beatz and Timbaland, is making its way to Apple Music, reports Variety. Verzuz launched in March and is designed to pit two artists against one another in a friendly competition.
So far, the series has featured Alicia Keys, Erykah Badu, John Legend, and DJ Nice. The first Verzuz episode on Apple Music will air on Wednesday, July 22 at 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time and will feature Snoop Dog and DMX.
While Verzuz will be aired on Apple Music, it is also going to continue to be simulcast live on Instagram Live. Episodes will be shown live on Apple Music, but fans will also be able to watch them on-demand in Apple Music.
Apple will work with Swizz Beatz Timbaland to produce new episodes of the series going forward.

That aside, I was just talking to my wife this morning about how old I felt (at 33) because of how much garbage rap there is today compared to the heyday of Swizz and Timbaland. What they have going is good for the soul.
Nothing wrong with the music but the artwork seems like poor taste.
