This Verzuz was a hot mess overall. Both of them played some real classics but the interactions were minimal. Also how it ended with their new singles instead of "Woman to Woman" felt disappointing to me as well. I doubt it would give their new songs any real boosts. Viewership plummeted once Ashanti played her new single 💀. Definitely won’t do anything for their new releases. These versuz battles never do.

They could have learned alot from the Monica vs Brandy battle!!! Theirs was much more punctual and organized! I was disappointed too that they didn't perform their duet, even Brandy and Monica never left without singing "The Boy Is Mine".

Both of their new singles are weak. Good luck to them both.

So she had a great promo opportunity last night and premiered the song. And then she didn't release it on any platforms today? I swear to God...

I do agree that interactions could've been a lot better, but I still loved it anyway. But what's up with Keysh absolutely ignoring Calling All Hearts like that? I mean, I understand ignoring Point Of No Return, but "Long Way Down" and "Take Me Away" are right there!

For some reason she still hates the album.

Which is a shame because Long Way Down is one of her best.

Too bad. "Calling All Hearts" was a very good album.

I rotate between three or four songs as my fav Keyshia song. And "Long Way Down" is one of them. That second verse and that bridge...

Been wondering if Keyshia or Ashanti had any of their songs streaming on the Apple charts since the Verzuz battle. Does anyone know?

Keyshia of course won the streaming battle.
Of the 11.3 million streams, Cole’s songs accounted for 6 million of that sum, while Ashanti’s material made up the remaining 5.3 million.
“Love” – 716,000 “Let It Go,” featuring Missy Elliott & Lil Kim – 525,000 “I Should Have Cheated” – 431,000 “Heaven Sent” – 376,000 “I Remember” – 366,000

Dang. It did something with a climax for a little bit, but this took me absolutely no where.

Not this kind of shenanigans 🤦🏻♂️
I've given up hope that she'll ever release another good album (her last was Woman to Woman to me).
