WATCH: Swizz Beatz Responds To Speculation Of A Possible Nicki Minaj & Lil’ Kim Verzuz

Swizz Beatz appeared as a recent guest on ‘The Breakfast Club’ radio show. During his interview, the producer was asked about a potential Verzuz match-up between Nicki Minaj and Lil’ Kim.

“I don’t know if the conversation stopped — Nicki Minaj and Lil’ Kim… We kept hearing that…

DJ Envy questioned Swizz.

“I think that..”

Swizz began to respond as DJ Envy posed the question.

“Has that boat passed?”

Swizz then replied.

“I can’t say… I can’t say… I can’t say it yet…”

DJ Envy then asked Swizz Beatz if there was still a possibility for the two female rappers to hit the Verzuz stage.

“Yeah, yeah, yeah — I can’t say it yet…”

However, Swizz Beatz did share some more of his thoughts.

“But just know, if we’re going to wait this long for Verzuz — if we’re going to have you wait this long, it’s going to definitely be worth the time…”

Additionally, Swizz went on to say that his silence on the matter means that “things are happening.”

“If anything people know about me — if I’m being quiet, things are happening…”
