Swizz Beatz left Jadakiss feeling quite envious by flashing his new, dazzling Ruff Ryders chain.
This jaw-dropping piece of jewelry, laden with diamonds, was crafted by celebrity jeweler Elliot Eliantte. Elliot shared a video on Instagram, featuring a close-up of the sparkling chain with DMX’s iconic track ‘Ruff Ryders’ Anthem’ playing in the background.
In the caption, Eliantte wrote, ‘The Legendary DoubleR,’ followed by several diamond and fire emojis. The chain immediately caught Jadakiss’ attention, prompting him to comment with several fire emojis and a playful, ‘i need something similar lol.’
Swizz Beatz, celebrating his 46th birthday, also flaunted the chain on his Instagram Stories, revealing it was a self-gift. He thanked Eliantte for the piece, adding a few emojis of his own. The chain, a bold statement of Swizz’s enduring legacy, has fans buzzing and Jadakiss plotting on how to get his own.
Meanwhile, Swizz Beatz seems to be planning another epic Verzuz battle. Following his legendary performance in The LOX’s victory over Dipset in 2021, he suggested a new twist for Jadakiss. Swizz proposed a battle format where Jadakiss would freestyle against multiple opponents rather than sticking to the traditional hit song competition.
He told Timbaland, ‘You know what I wanna see? I wanna see everybody versus Jadakiss. Beanie Sigel, Pusha [T]… everybody to the breakbeats. No hit songs, all freestyles. Zah! Survival of the spittist.’ This innovative idea has fans eagerly anticipating if it will ever come to fruition.
Last June, Swizz and Timbaland struck a distribution deal with X (formerly Twitter), owned by Elon Musk, to bring Verzuz to the social media platform. Swizz expressed his excitement about partnering with X, aiming to build it into the world’s biggest entertainment company. Timbaland echoed Swizz’s excitement, noting that this partnership would allow Verzuz to reach a global audience like never before.
Verzuz faced a hiatus since July 2022 due to a legal dispute between Swizz, Timbaland, and their former partners at Triller. Although this issue has been resolved, new shows are still awaited. However, with both producers hinting at a third season, fans are on the edge of their seats, waiting for the next big announcement.
Swizz Beatz’s new chain and his visionary ideas for Verzuz have certainly stirred excitement. Whether Jadakiss gets his own iced-out piece or not, the world eagerly awaits the next chapter in this evolving story.
