N.O.R.E Claims BEANIE SIGEL Doesn’t Match up in a Verzuz Battle

On Tuesday, June 30^th, N.O.R.E was talking with the Breakfast Club about the possibility of a face-off with Beanie Sigel in a Verzuz battle. He acknowledged Beanie’s lyrical prowess but thought that the Broad Street Bully is not fit enough to hold him in a verzuz Match –up. N.O.R.E is a Hip Hop icon from Queens Brooklyn. Both N.O.R.E and Beanie are celebrated Hip Hop artists of the late ’90s and early 2000s. They were the lyrical genius of those days and they both used to top the Billboard charts for their unwavering grit and influential music they used to do. The discussion with the Breakfast Club is an indication that they may be planning to turn back the clock to give their fans a surprise comeback through A verzuz battle showdown.

“I know what Beanie is thinking, he thinking he’s the better lyricist, and guess what Beans, I tip my hat off to you every day,” N.O.R.E. said on the call. “But this isn’t about lyricism. This is about hit for hits. If we go in the club, I have never had a show with Beanie Sigel where I opened up. Beanie Sigel has always been my opener.”

During the interview, N.O.R.E made statements which The Breakfast Club host termed as disrespect to the Philadelphia legend Beanie Sigel. But he was persistent in his lyrical flow to tear down Beanies image as unfit to match his lyrics in a battle. He claimed to also have demolished Beanie’s Roc-A-Fella label mate Memphis Bleek in a show back then during their hay days. His track ‘Super Thug’ topped the airwaves back then, he also on a lighter note indicated that whatever he had said was a joke and thus nothing to be taken seriously. He claimed he wasn’t into a competition with Beanie and above all he respects him and his music.
