Teddy Riley vs. Babyface: The Grown Folks Battle We’ve Been Waiting For

April 21, 2020

www.blackdoctor.org

As the third attempt to get two legendary writers/producers/singers, Teddy Riley and Kenny “Babyface” Edmonds, together, it finally happened on Monday, April 20th, was epic but it wasn’t without issues either.

The friendly battle was originally scheduled weeks ago, but it was delayed initially due to Babyface having tested positive for the COVID-19 virus. So, literally fresh off of Babyface’s birthday and not only him, but his family recovering from the virus, the bout got rescheduled again. But this time, while both parties were ready, it seemed as though Teddy succumbed to the plague of “doing too much.” While Babyface was sitting in a room with a phone and speaker, Riley came ‘suited and booted’ with a band, a hype man was literally doing the most, which seemed to create issues for his sound. The internet went crazy with memes and parodies all over social media. All in all, Babyface graciously rescheduled the event again to be fair and give the people what they “came” for.
