Jadakiss Fires Off Another Freestyle Over An O.D.B. Classic

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.

It seems as if Jadakiss's ongoing freestyle campaign cannot be stopped--it can only be contained. For weeks now, the Lox MC has been dishing out a new rap each weekend over classic beats, and his latest installment he's taken on O.D.B.'s classic "Brooklyn Zoo," beat, smashing it left and right with his raspy delivery to create a new mini-joint dubbed "Shame On Ya."

It was only two weeks ago that we heard Jadakiss taking on come classic Raekwon in his "Incarcerated Scarfaces", and now we've once again been reminded of just how well the MC can rhyme off-the-cuff. Jadakiss's snarling delivery matches ODB's and True Master's dusty production work. The track clocks in at just over a minute--it's a freestyle after all--but covers plenty of ground in its single trip around the clock face. Jadakiss rhymes about chess pieces, books and movies, Federal agent shakedowns and a whole lot of "wordplay that make ya brain sore." Are we the only ones feeling a little cerebral numbness over here, or is everyone as bowled over by this fast and furious display? Listen to Jadakiss's "Shame On Ya" below and be on notice--next weekend will surely bring another round of heat.
