Cam’ron has called into question the validity of whether or not his fellow rap compadre Jadakiss is actually utilizing or shunning the “pause” game.
On Tuesday (July 18), the Dipset rapper reposted a clip on Instagram of Jada’s recent sit-down conversation on The Adam Friedland Show.

In the interview clip, Jadakiss told Friedland that he was “feeling” the way he had his legs crossed, to which the comedic host jokingly said, “Pause.”
This made The LOX rapper go into detail about how Friedland’s usage of “pause” at that moment wasn’t necessary.

“Ain’t no pause,” he said. “We grown men here, we comfortable in our skin. We don’t have to say ‘pause.’ I think only people that’s not comfortable with their self [say it]. ‘Pause’ is for tape recorders.”
Cam’ron edited the clip to include a famous transition from SpongeBob SquarePants where a voice says in a French accent, “A few moments later.”

The video then cuts to Friedland reminding Jadakiss about a video of him in the studio with Rick Ross and Scott Storch, during which the latter was “smoking that big joint,” which prompted Jada to U-turn on his previous comments.
“Pause,” he interjected. “I ain’t even on ‘pause’ time, but that was a ‘pause.’ ‘Cause you did the sign language with it, all of that. That’s definitely a ‘pause.'”
In his caption, Cam’ron called out Jadakiss for his hypocrisy by writing: “Yo @jadakiss you playing ‘PAUSE’ or not? [crying laughing emojis] homie took it to far at the end tho [brown face palm emoji].”

Jadakiss isn’t Cam’ron’s only target of late regarding the use of “pause.” Last month, Cam roasted Fat Joe alongside his It Is What It Is co-host Ma$e for his comments during the 2023 NBA Draft, despite the Terror Squad rapper previously thanking the pair for not making fun of him.
Joey Crack went viral weeks earlier for saying he likes “Dick from Kansas” while appearing on ESPN’s broadcast of the draft, referring to Kansas Jayhawks star Gradey Dick who went on to be recruited by the Toronto Raptors.

After facing a barrage of jokes both online and in person, the Bronx rap legend responded by saying he’s “too old to play the pause game” and is “very confident in who I am,” while also shouting out Cam’ron and Ma$e for “not roasting me yet.”
During an episode of their aforementioned sports talk show, however, the Harlem duo ribbed Fat Joe for his on-air gaffe.

“The whole thing about it is, Fat Joe didn’t even say whoever’s name it is first — he just said ‘from Kansas,’ so he say he like dick from a specific area or a certain part of the country — pause,” Cam’ron said while laughing hysterically.
“Like lobster from Maine,” Ma$e chimed in, fueling the laughter. “Idaho potato,” Cam added.
“Ayo Joe, listen, we love you,” the Dipset rapper continued. “Once you say you don’t play [the pause game], you play it! If you don’t play, why say you don’t play?! You don’t gotta announce it. And if it didn’t bother you, you ain’t gotta double back and be like, ‘I don’t care. I said I liked Dick from Kansas, that’s a player.’”
Cam’ron and Ma$e both agreed that Joe was “out of pocket” for his comments and questioned why he referred to Gradey Dick by his surname alone, considering the connotations.

“Yo Crack, you know you my man. You got a flow, Joe. I was a fan in high school, n-gga,” Killa Cam said. “But you’re out of pocket, Joe. You know why, Joe? I would say this — pause this whole little scenario — it would be crazy if the n-gga’s name was Fred Dick — pause.
“But he got a whole other name, it’s Gregory or something like that. You could say, ‘I mess with Gregory from Kansas.’ He had two names, bro. A first name and a last name.”

“He chose to go with Dick,” Ma$e interjected, prompting more hysterical laughter.
“Yo Crack, you can say you don’t play, my man, but listen, the internet says different… pause,” Cam concluded.
