Bucks up, y’all because it’s Wu vs Wu for the next VERZUZ. Rappers, Raekwon and Ghostface Killah are going head-to-head in a battle you don't want to miss.

Raekwon writes, “steel sharpen steel,” accompanying the flyer for the showdown— taking place on March 20th at 8PM ET, on VERZUZ’s Instagram and via the Triller app (its new streaming partner). We’re hoping this time around, competitors incorporate the storytelling aspect that occurred during the early days of VERZUZ. It was announced in October that Raekwon is releasing his first memoir, The Story of Raekwon, slated to be available for purchase later this year while Ghostface is actively working on the sequel to his 1997 LP, Supreme Clientele.

Our favorite quarantine series wrapped up their first season with the tense showdown between Gucci Mane and Jeezy, only to return with season two weeks later with a historic Bay Area matchup. Just last month, the series had its first solo-ish show starring D’Angelo, but tapped in with his friends, Redman, Method Man and H.E.R. for a night of neosoul. The Wu-Tang battle was first teased during the postshow recap with Swizz Beatz and Timbaland.
