Jay-Z says he’s in a league of his own when it comes to music and greatness — to the point he’s claiming nobody could realistically touch him in a ‘Verzuz’ showdown.
HOV did some chest-puffing of his own during a Twitter Spaces convo this week, saying there wasn’t a chance in hell another artist could go toe to toe with him over hits … and not just songs everyone knows well, but ones Jay says no one’s heard him perform live.
One example … the ‘Grammy Family Freestyle,’ which he says he hasn’t even performed onstage before. Bottom line — he really does believe he’s the GOAT of this rap game … and that there’s no true contemporary who could give him a fair fight.
Not everyone agrees, of course — with some names having already been tossed into the proverbial ring … like Lil Wayne, Eminem or the great OutKast as potential rivals.
The only way to find out for sure … putting his money where his mouth is, and making it happen!!! Eh, don’t get your hopes up though because it sounds like Jay’s too good to consider it … in kind of a snooty way.
In the streets im bigger then jigga. Ima run me a B up easy.

The backdrop to this seems to be Future recently saying he’s “bigger” than Jay-Z (in the streets) … which stirred up a lot of debate as to whether Mr. Carter is as relevant these days as he once was.
Jay didn’t directly respond to Future publicly, but something tells us he’s telegraphing something here — because he’s not humble bragging. It’s plain boasting.
