Lil Wayne was interested in going against himself on Verzuz stage.
Lil Wayne is one of the best rappers of all time, and the Lousiana legend was in the conversation of many potential Verzuz battles. However, we’re yet to see Weezy on the Verzuz stage, and now the rapper revealed that he was once interested in going against his past self.
“I was interested in Mixtape Weezy going against Lil Wayne,” he said in a new interview with Rolling Stone.” “That would have been crazy… What other artists you think? There ain’t no other artist that can stand on the stage next to me, bro. I’m sorry.”

The same comments were made previously by the Cash Money mogul Birdman. “Himself, Wayne versus Tunechi,” said Birdman about the potential opponent for Lil Wayne Verzuz battle. “He got too much sh*t going on, nobody could touch that. Come on, brother, this is Tunechi. This ni**ga had 100 singles in one year. He passed Elvis in one year. Elvis personally had 101, Wayne did that sh*t in one year. A 100 songs on Billboard, so I don’t think an individual could top that. I’m talking about a 100 hit songs, stands at number 1. The work Wayne put into it, I wouldn’t even play with that sh*t. All you could do is him vs himself. And let them pay both of them.”
Recently, there were talks of Lil Wayne vs 50 Cent Verzuz on the internet, which was declined by Swizz Beatz. “Me personally, I wouldn’t even do 50 vs. Wayne. I just think they two different dynamics and two different artists,” he said in an interview during the “Godfather of Harlem 3″ soundtrack promo run. “I would do a different Verzuz for both of them, but we’ll see as we have a lot of things lined up for Verzuz, and hopefully, they are involved,” he added. “While I can’t give up who I would choose to go against them, just wait and see.”
Verzuz battles are typically determined by the event’s organizers and artists involved, and Wayne’s comments may not necessarily reflect any planned or confirmed Verzuz matchups involving him. Verzuz is known for pairing artists who have a similar impact or following in the music industry for a friendly and competitive showcase of their catalogues. Any future matchups and the involvement of Young Money mogul would depend on the decisions of Verzuz organizers and participating artists.
