As for 112, the static is beginning to drown the noise and is slowly killing their momentum. I know Bad Boy gets (and takes) a lot of credit for inventing the remix, but the So So Def virtuoso cultivated a lot of well-known hits of his own. Nice chess move by Jagged Edge to play the original and then the remix featuring super-producer Jermaine Dupri. ROUND 16: Jagged Edge’s “What’s It Like” vs. Still, there’s a reason why people weren’t quick to check-out of Room 112, and that’s because of “Love You Like I Did.” 112’s “Love You Like I Did”Īgain, Jermaine Dupri’s genius shines, courtesy of this darkhorse of a record. ROUND 15: Jagged Edge’s “Put a Little Umph In It” vs. Even Biggie’s stout presence can’t reject this one.
Both sides are cranking out classics right now as we enter the fourth quarter. “Let’s Get Married (Remix)” is the ultimate send-off to a newlywed right when the reception is ready to wrap up. ROUND 14: Jagged Edge’s “Let’s Get Married (Remix)” vs.
Now, THIS REMIX RIGHT HERE is what had Bad Boy soaring to the moon. Jagged Edge’s “Don’t Mess With My Man” vs. It didn’t have quite the punch in comparison to its predecessors. Yes, Bad Boy invented the remix, but this one kind of went under the radar with Beans. ROUND 12: Jagged Edge’s “Good Luck Charm” vs. Musically, how can you dispute Fab and Diddy’s crisp flows on the hit sequel? The WiFi bug is making its presence tonight. Now, it appears 112 is having technical difficulties. Slim proved he was a solo threat when he dropped “So Fly.” Every college kid was on cloud nine, because who didn’t want to be fly back then? Even the boys from 112 asked if they could sing this version during their next performance. JE paid homage to LL Cool J with this remix in 2000, courtesy of super-producer Jermaine Dupri. ROUND 10: Jagged Edge’s “Promise” (Remix) vs. Though JE didn’t get to work with Biggie Smalls during his lifetime, they left their footprints on the rapper’s posthumous single “Nasty Girl.” Fortunately, for 112, they had a fistful of collabs with Big Poppa during their run with Bad Boy in the ’90s, including the motivational Life After Death record “Sky’s the Limit.” That hook was pristine. Diddy, Nelly & Jagged Edge’s “Nasty Girl” vs. Also, the chords on “Remedy” were so clean. Famed songwriter Brian Michael Cox’s advanced pen skills were on display and caused the group to bring this record back and deservingly so. “Remedy” was the perfect way to close 2001’s Jagged Little Thrill. Though 112’s Daron wasn’t involved with Verzuz because of a legal dispute with his group mates, his vocals from “Player” dazzles and has the room buzzing. “Y’all both my favorite groups from the ’90s,” he declares. During the brief intermission, the “godfather of R&B” Keith Sweat pulls up the battle to kick it with 112. 112’s “Player”Ī Jagged Little Thrill gem helps the good men of ATL earn a much-needed point on the scoreboard. 112 bounces back with the mesmerizing “Cupid.” Both groups zipped upstairs to heaven with these entrancing cuts. “One of my favorite Jagged Edge records,” Slim says in praise of the JE’s flawless selection. ROUND 6: Jagged Edge’s “Walked Outta Heaven” vs. Sadly for JE, “Anywhere” was a sultry jam that brought instant gratification to every bedroom in America. I think 112 is enjoying going second because their counter game is strong tonight. “I Gotta Be” even has Slim up out his seat and vibin’. Room 112 is where the party’s at right now. They set the table nicely until 112 crashes the scene with the velvety lullaby “U Already Know.” What a counter. JE opts to pull the “Promise” card early in the game and, to their benefit, works. ROUND 4: Jagged Edge’s “Promise” (Remix) vs. What an excellent rebound here by the boys to push off 112’s early streak. In the late ’90s and early 2000s, JE was a band of smooth lotharios every day of the week, most notably on Wednesdays with this impressive track. ROUND 3: Jagged Edge’s “Wednesday Lover” vs. In hopes of evening the score, “homegrown JE” dialed in the somber breakup anthem “Girl It’s Over.” Again, 112 swung for the fences and connected with their ’90s bop ‘Come See Me.” It’s hard to deny Slim’s buttery vocals and Tim and Bob’s impeccable production. ROUND 2: Jagged Edge’s “Girl It’s Over” vs. 112’s “It’s Over Now”Īfter 112 re-entered Instagram Live, Jagged Edge kicked things off with the slithery earworm “He Can’t Love U.” Unfortunately for the ATL quartet, 112’s Slim delivered a booming counter with the undeniable Billboard Hot 100 top 10 hit “It’s Over Now” in honor of their Bad Boy days. ROUND 1: Jagged Edge’s “He Can’t Love U” vs. Bounty Killer in 'Verzuz' Battle of Dancehall Legends: See Billboard's Scorecard and…
