Last night’s legendary Verzuz re-do between tech-allergic Teddy Riley and buttery smooth Babyface was a Cool Water-scented affair that attracted 500K music lovers, game-changers and legends for an unforgettable night of auntie jams, bluetooth bangers and taupe turtleneck classics.
It only took hourssss of endless slander and memes to get Teddy to drop the extra shenanigans and his 77-person entourage in favor of a more intimate setup that made the experience wayyyy more enjoyable this time around.
Now, you already know there were struggles with modern technology and Instagram Live but Teddy & ‘Face powered through to bless the people with timeless classic after classic during the most deliciously nostalgic Verzuz thus far.
Peep the absolute FUNNIEST (and PETTIEST) reactions to Teddy Riley & Babyface’s Verzuz re-do on the flip.
“WHO?!” – we went from “throw in the tile” to “Luther Vandals” in 1 day and it’s hilarious
“I AM CRYING AT TEDDY DAUGHTER COMMENT” – Nia was FED UP with her daddy’s old n*** shenanigans
“Every time I look and see Teddy” – there’s no greater war than the one between uncles and modern technology
“Tyrese!” – Ty knew we were waiting for the sequel to “throw in the tile”
“Boyz II Men wrote all their songs laying on their stomachs with their feet in the air.” – this is almost too accurate
“Babyface: Imma do my white song
The 3 white people in the live:” – one of the funniest moments of the night. Those checks definitely hit different
“My internet works fine” – we had no idea Babyface was so deliciously shady
“Lmaoooo okay @Tyrese” – Babyface & Teddy were responsible for sooooo manyyyy unplanned pregnancies during the golden R&B era
“Teddy in the comments with us, trying to get back in” – Teddy vs. Technology was the heavyweight fight we didn’t know we needed
“If “This gonna f*ck em up” had a face:” – once ‘Face touched that guitar it was a wrap
“Man I don’t want all of that smoke” – Teddy pretending not to see Babyface requesting to join the Live was real-life hilarious
““Can We Talk” is a song about stalking but it works every time.” – a true gem that shifted the culture
“Ok…no one is moving so we’re watching FROZEN 3?” – who knew Toni was so hilarious
