Jadakiss Drops Fiery "Aroma" Verse Aimed at 38 Spesh

Jadakiss appears to have responded to recent comments from 38 Spesh in a new song. Jadakiss and Fat Joe dropped the track “Aroma,” which also features Stove God Cooks. The song is an interpolation of Erykah Badu’s “On & On,” and Jada sounds like he’s commenting on some words from Spesh. 

During an appearance on the Bag Fuel Podcast, 38 Spesh said that he felt 'Kiss was avoiding recording with him. 

“Some people don’t wanna be outshined on the record. Like to be honest with you, I did a record with Benny and ‘Kiss, and I happened to have the best verse on the record. I smoked the record, and ‘Kiss never did a song with me again. And I don’t think he’ll ever do a song with me again,” he said. “You got a chance to come redeem yourself, ‘Kiss. Come on, come outside, n***a. He been duckin’ me since. Y’all gonna have to reorder your top fives.”

On “Aroma,” Jadakiss raps,“I’ve been obliterating n***as for years / Is this about a verse or is this about a career?/ Ask around, they tell you I’m the career repo…”

After Spesh’s initial statements, another clip surfaced, this one of Jadakiss sounding like he was giving a warning. 

“I’m ’bout to go in the lab, I’m ’bout to do some samurai swording,” he said. “You know what I mean? They asked for it. I tried to be a father, a businessman, but they wanna bring me outta my element.”
