It will be a battle of veteran male crooners when Musiq Soulchild and Anthony Hamilton face off for a special Verzuz event for lovers on the day after Valentine’s Day…Tuesday, February 15.

Verzuz founders Swizz Beatz and Timbaland announced Monday that Musiq and Hamilton will perform for a live audience at Avalon Hollywood in Los Angeles. Tickets for the show are now available at VERZUZTV.com

The performance also will be streamed on the website and the Verzuz Instagram page beginning at 5:30 p.m. PT/8:30 p.m. ET.

After releasing his first album in five years, Love Is the New Black, in September, Hamilton was nominated two weeks ago for three NAACP Image Awards. The Grammy winner is up for Outstanding Male Artist, and has two nods for Outstanding Duo or Group Collaboration: “Superstar” featuring Jennifer Hudson from the album is nominated, as is the “Complicated” remix with Leela James.

Musiq Soulchild is a 13-time Grammy nominee whose recording career began in 2000 with his hit single, “Just Friends.” The singer from Philadelphia has released nine solo albums, with his latest album, Feel the Real, dropping in 2017.
