LL Cool J Wants Drake Or JAY-Z For A Verzuz

According to New York rap veteran Fat Joe, the legendary LL Cool J has some big-name competitors in mind if he were to do a Verzuz. Joe said he couldn’t battle LL himself, since that’s his rap idol.

“LL wants JAY-Z or Drake. That’s who LL Cool J allegedly wants. You asked me, so I don’t want to start any new beefs.”
