The rap rivalry between Stefflon Don and Jada Kingdom has reached a new level of intensity, as the former posted a mock funeral flyer for the latter on Instagram and dropped a scathing diss track called “Dead Gyal Walking”.

Stefflon Don, who is best known for her hit songs Hurtin’ Me and Senseless, took to social media on Tuesday, January 10, to announce the release of her new song, which is a direct response to Jada Kingdom’s diss track Dat A Dat, which came out earlier in the week.

In Dat A Dat, Jada Kingdom, a Jamaican singer and rapper, accused Stefflon Don of being a “clout chaser” and a “fake friend”, and hinted that she had an affair with Stefflon Don’s ex-boyfriend, Nigerian superstar Burna Boy.

Stefflon Don did not hold back in her reply, as she mocked Jada Kingdom’s appearance, career, and personal life. She also posted a Photoshopped image of Jada Kingdom on a background that made it look like a flyer for a funeral service.

The image features text which says: “Funeral service tonight. In loving memory of Jada Ashanti Murphy. We’re not sure what date she was born as this person doesn’t even have a Wikipedia.”

It also lists her death date as “10 January 2024” and refers to her as a “beloved sister, daughter, cum bucket and victim.”

“DEAR DON’S, Friends & Pagans IF YOU ARE READY TO ATTEND MISS JADA ASHATI MURPHY’S FUNERAL TONIGHT. YOU MUST COMMENT ‘[coffin emoji]’ 100k Times.”

Jada Kingdom, who has collaborated with artists such as Vybz Kartel and Popcaan, did not stay silent after seeing Stefflon Don’s post. She commented: “A who guh dig har up??? Wooooiiieee!!! [crying face emojis] 100k comments? afta yu have di people dem a wait wull day??? Lmfao.”

She also called the Birmingham, England native “corny” and said that she was “not ready” for her.
