“I rather go against my arch-nemesis,” DMX previously said, referencing Jay. “You can’t go in the basement and play some records?!… That’s what I’m saying. That’s why it should be done. It’s a celebration. We’re celebrating music. He got some hits, too! He can play ‘Money, Cash, Hoes,’ then I can play ‘Money, Cash, Hoes.”
While the subsequent announcement was met with excitement, many fans began to inquire about the unique pairing before making their predictions–with many declaring Snoop the clear winner.
Despite Twitter’s questioning of the matchup, the pair up does make sense when you compare the two Hip Hop legends’ biggest hits. DMX will surely revisit classics that showcase his ability to control the crowd with his ferocious delivery, like “Ruff Ryders’ Anthem” and “X Gon’ Give It to Ya,” while Snoop will surely counter with his iconic tracks including “Gin & Juice”, “Nuthin’ but a ‘G’ Thang,” even with Snoop’s extensive catalog it makes the matchup a good one.
