It’s no competition between usher and Chris everyone knows usher will win because usher has a very long catalog you talking about someone who’s been in the industry and releasing music since 12 we gone act like just call me Mac wasn’t #1 and was a soundtrack on poetic justice. Don’t get me wrong I’m a big fan of chris music is just as good but usher been doing it longer.

​@kimmompepe2471 exactly what I said

[@CedRockStarr]

Prince & Michael is great but Prince wrote and produced. Michael did not. But it’s a good match as far as genre. It’s a hard “NO” on these holograms though. If you want to comprise video footage, fine. But Prince I know for sure SERIOUSLY disapproves with holograms and AI’s impersonating people.

[@terrellmiller4768]

Dre is horrible choice for Quincy 🤢 Quincy and Babyface. Dre and Snoop.

[@mrlij6534]

the pairing doesnt even make sense, lol. Usher is literally his senior, His OG, why would u pair them together. put User verzuz one of his peers

[@CedRockStarr]

Mariah wrote her hits. Whitney wrote nothing.

[@KeithBuckhanon]

Don't ever disrespect Whitney Houston like that again. She forever the greatest female artist, vocalist, entertainer to ever walk earth.

[@CedRockStarr]

@@KeithBuckhanon it’s the same argument with Michael vs. Prince. I still think they both make for a great VERZUS because the music is sonically and aesthetically comparable. But that still doesn’t negate the original statement. Mariah wrote her hits. Whitney wrote nothing. Prince wrote, produced, and arranged his hits. Michael did not. They are on two totally different levels of “Artistry”.

[@backuppage5608]

@@CedRockStarr ... Micheal Jackson didn't write all of his songs but definitely wrote a lot. He literally wrote and co-produced his most known song Billie Jean.

Usher can win if he sticks with a more masculine and mature theme.. And little boy Chris. Usher is just more fly grown man concerning music and image..But at the same time the world has changed and rides with less masculine/mature males. So Yeah, It'll be interesting😂

[@thomasharris5151]

Tupac vs Biggie is not needed.. Tupac wins by a landslide! Bigg didn’t have the catalog that Pac didn’t all and I’m tired of people lying… Check the chart and numbers on the hits…. Tupac was a massive worldwide superstar that changed the culture and Biggie was only hip hop (and he was talented but didn’t get a chance to show)…
