Teddy Riley and Babyface’s battle was the talk of social media Saturday night, but for all the wrong reasons … and Teddy Riley’s audio equipment is to blame. The two music legends were supposed to square off as part Swizz Beatz and Timbaland’s Instagram battle series … and nearly 400k people were tuned in to watch it go down. Babyface was solo, set up in what looked like his home studio, and Teddy had something more elaborate … with a microphone and crew around him.The audio issues were immediate, Teddy’s sound was muffled, ruining the timing and quality, while Babyface’s sounded perfectly clear. Teddy — who had what appeared to be an audio crew with him — took several pauses, trying to fix the tech issues … but the sound never improved and the competition ultimately got canceled.
