Here are Billboard's ten favorite moments from the event

’s Verzuz event was a healing balm. For more than two hours the pair played their biggest hits , including their solo songs and features. At times Keys sat at a fuschia piano as Legend took a seat behind a black piano. Other times, the pair got up and danced along to their hit songs, singing over the recordings.

The Juneteenth-themed event -- the latest in the Verzuz series created by Timbaland and Swizz Beatz, Keys’ husband -- was also the the first in the series to be streamed on Apple TV. The emancipation-themed Bob Marley and the Wailers song -- which both artists have performed live in the past -- was a much-needed nod to the Juneteenth holiday, and the racial uprising that is currently occurring throughout the country. The powerful performance helped set the tone for the rest of the event as one of unity, not competition.Introduced by a mutual friend when he was a 19-year-old at Penn, Legend met Hill while she was working on her solo album.
