VERZUZ took off like a rocket and fans could not wait to see which artists Swizz and Timbaland had in the line-up next.

After amazing success, with viewers topping into the millions during most broadcasts, the super-producers decided to sell their creation to Triller, a video social media app similar to Tik Tok.

Also, Swizz Beatz and Timbaland joined the Triller VERZUZ management team to provide their input to make sure that VERZUZ continues on a positive path.

Triller is owned by Bobby Sarnevesht and Ryan Kavanaugh, and run by CEO Mike Lu.
