Funk Flex Calls Jada Pinkett-Smith “Worst Type of Woman” Following Reaction To Keefe D 2Pac Arrest

Funk Flex had a lot to say about Jada Pinkett-Smith’s reaction to Duane “Keefe D” Davis being apprehended as a suspect in 2Pac’s 1996 murder.
The Hot 97 DJ blasted the actress and media personality on Friday (Sept. 29), after she responded to the arrest news with “Now I hope we can get some answers and have some closure. R.I.P. Pac,” on Instagram.
Flex took to his IG Story with a screenshot of a TMZ headline about Pinkett’s post. “This is the worst type of woman! Always focused on an old guy!” he wrote. “Stay focused on Will! He’s alive and here!”
See below.
Perhaps the media continues to come to Will’s defense, not only because of him slapping Chris Rock over Pinkett, or the world finding out about Jada’s entanglement with R&B singer August Alsina — but because of his 2021 memoir Will, where he admitted to being “tortured by [the] connection” between Jada and Pac early on.
“I hated that I wasn’t what he was in the world, and I suffered a raging jealousy,” he wrote.
Just a few weeks ago, the Red Table Talk host continued to show her admiration and love for the slain icon. In a nostalgic video of her and the former Death Row artist, the two could be seen dancing and lip-syncing to Will Smith and DJ Jazzy Jeff’s 1988 hit, “Parents Just Don’t Understand.” The clip reportedly coincides with a chapter from her new book Worthy.
“CHAPTER – Advanced Degree,” she captioned the post. “Not in a million years would I have dreamed that the Fresh Prince and I would become, um, very acquainted. Not in a million years did I imagine three lives, their fates, would be so intertwined. And… I never would have imagined that this video would become a tangible memory, of the last time Pac and I, were simply kids together.”
She added, “Pac and I lip syncing Parents Just Don’t Understand by Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince during our Junior year in high school. Who would have thought?”
Will and Jada married in 1997, a little over a decade after the actress befriended Pac at Maryland’s Baltimore School for the Arts, way ahead of their respective fame. The two became best friends, which is depicted in Pac’s 2017 biopic, All Eyez On Me.
Over the years, the 52-year-old has shared old poems between her and the “Keep Your Head Up” rapper, photos, and more — and the internet has never let the mother of two bask in memories without backlash.
Following the vintage clip shared by The Shade Room, reality star and music manager Richie Dollaz commented, “The emasculation and disrespect is so insane at this point – if she didn’t know where then bones were buried dude woulda been gone.” Another person said, “No cap she’s mentioned and showed more love to Pac in her lifetime than her own husband and father of her children that’s wild.”
Someone else commented, “Imagine being thee will smith and your girl won’t stop talking about her lil teenage crush bruhhhhhhh enough is enough and I don’t want to hear if you’re secure with who you are it’s okay lol because @ this point stop.”
As of publication, Jada has not responded to Funk Flex’s sentiments about her.
