Here’s How Ludacris Compared His Pen Game To Jay-Z
Ludacris appeared as a guest on a recent episode of Cam Newton’s podcast, ‘Funky Friday,’ which was released via YouTube on Friday, May 10. About 49 minutes into the interview, Newton asked Luda about Jay-Z while playing a game of “Win, Lose, or Draw.”
“Verse — like, if I sit this person down in a room and sit you down in a room [and] you guys have two hours to create a verse — Ludacris vs.Hov,” Newton posed.
In response, Luda said he would win in that scenario.
“A verse? I would have to say ‘win.’ I would win on that one,” Luda explained.
The rapper acknowledged that his statement was “strong” or bold. However, although Hov is one of his favorite rappers, he believes his bars can outdo Hov’s.
“…I mean, I’m just gonna go in and metaphor and style — in terms of like flow, I’m gonna 𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁 that s**t,” he explained. “And it’s not that Hov is not gon’ 𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁 that s**t, but I’m like, when you say s**t like that and it’s put me in a category where I’m like, ‘Oh s**t, I’m going against Hov,’ I gotta like — every f**king word, every line, every style, every flow, every metaphor, I got to go!”
