Mary Mary is a female American urban contemporary gospel duo composed of sisters Erica Campbell and Trecina Atkins-Campbell formed in 1998. They have received several career accomplishments and top-charted singles.
BeBe & CeCe Winans are an American gospel music brother and sister duo who debuted in 1982. Together, they have received several awards, including three Grammys. The pair comes from Detroit gospel royalty– the renowned Winans family.
Here are a few hits from Mary Mary and Bebe & Cece we hope to get played during the Easter Verzuz.
The music platform, Verzuz, was created by producers Timbaland and Swizz Beatz. It was introduced as a “DJ Battle” on Instagram in March 2020. The platform reached millions of people looking for entertainment during the COVID-19 pandemic. The artists in the battle pick 20 songs each to compete, and the fans choose their winner.
Now, the competition is produced and held on stage with the contestants’ performances.
A few notable battles include the most recent Valentine’s day edition of soulful music artists Anthony Hamilton and Musiq Soulchild, the controversial match between Gucci and Young Jeezy and the legendary Monica versus Brandy battle.
Who do you think will win the battle?
