Diddy and Jermaine Dupri are ready to face off in a "hit for hit" battle. And no, it will not be a Verzuz in light of Swizz Beatz and Timbaland's current $28 million Triller lawsuit.

“Since we ain’t fucking with Verzuz no more since ’cause they fucking around with our boys, we don’t need to be going against each other,” Diddy said in an Instagram live with JD and super producer Bryan-Michael Cox. “Let’s come together and do that Bad Boy, So So Def in Atlanta. It ain’t no Verzuz, it’s just hit for hit.”

Diddy and JD have a long history and friendship, dating back to Diddy's days in JD's hometown, Atlanta in the late 90s and early aughts. The two have gone back and forth over the past year about who would win in a battle, with JD challenging Diddy back in September. Diddy said Dr. Dre's the only producer who could contend with him, adding, “Your arms too short to box with God.” They then got on Instagram Live and got into a mini-shouting match as Diddy played Biggie's "One More Chance" to prove his point.

Dupri's response to remind folks he's in the Songwriter's Hall of Fame in an interview at Atlanta's V-103. “I am in the Songwriters Hall of Fame,” he said. “Puff Daddy’s not in the Songwriters Hall Of Fame. Steve Stoute and the Trackmasters are not in the Hall of Fame. I shouldn’t have to play nothing. I am in a seat that Puff Daddy can’t pay for.”

We'll have to wait and see when the battle of hits will take place.
