Admittedly this pandemic is one of the worst things that can happen to the human race. In this crisis Terius Nash proved again that sharing from a digital distance is the best caring.

As spotted on Hypebeast some pretty entertaining beat battles occurred over the weekend that produced some very memorable moments that Hip-Hop fans would normally not be privy too. In spirit of Hit-Boy and Boi-1da’s thrilling beat battle two of the game’s most critically acclaimed songwriter’s went back to back in stunning fashion. Sean Garrett versus The Dream resulted in an unreleased gem.

After trading some of their most cherished hit records the “That’s My Sh*t” crooner upped the ante and dropped the original version of Jay-Z’s “Holy Grail”. While Garrett was talking to someone off camera the song still set the internet on fire with Dream’s noticeably much more goose bump worthy rendition of the introduction and hook. So much so the song is now officially available to the world.

On Sunday, March 29 the self proclaimed Radio Killa announced on his Instagram that Tidal heard the masses and are now exclusively streaming the demo version. “Holy Grail Original Demo! Produced and Written by The-Dream and Jay Z @rocnation @radiokillarecords @tidal recorded by @pat_thrall and @bschoudel”.

JAY-Z’s ‘Holy Grail’ Featuring The-Dream is Now Available Following This Weekend Songwriter’s Battle

Over the weekend The-Dream and Sean Garrett duked it out in a heavyweight songwriters battle that heard hits penned for Rihanna, Beyonce and more. In one of the later rounds of the match, The-Dream played  JAY-Z’s “Holy Grail,” which he had a hand in writing, however, it was a little bit different.

The version of “Holy Grail” that made it to all of our music libraries featuring Justin Timberlake, which would be performed by the two as they traveled the globe on the Legends of the Summer tour. During the battle, “Holy Grail” sounded a bit different, The-Dream was in the place of JT.

“JAY’s probably gonna kill me for playing this,” said The-Dream.

Apparently, Hov isn’t that mad as the version with The-Dream is now available to the public courtesy of TIDAL. Peep it below.
