Jhene Aiko has always been one to say what’s on her mind, and today she put out a brand new freestyle “Triggered,” which harshly addresses a past boyfriend. Her lyrics have the internet wondering if the track is about her last relationship with Big Sean. After being with Sean for a few years, the two recently split up allegedly due to his infidelity. Jhene has not put any music out since her album Trip, and this time around she is speaking up. Take a look at some of her most standout lyrics from “Triggered” below.
“Trying my hardest not to disrespect you / After what you did, man, what you expected? / You motherfu**er”) “Fall back eventually / Please call me back eventually / Fall back into me”
Aside from all of the speculation, Jhene made it a point to let the world know the freestyle was in fact, NOT about Big Sean.
“triggered” was a moment. a moment that for me has passed. it is new to you because ur just now hearing it, but for me… it’s something i moved on from the moment i expressed it.

triggered is NOT a diss song. it is a moment of talking shit out of frustration and passion. it’s was a moment of exaggerated expression when I was feeling lost and weak. no one is to be blamed or bashed for how I was feeling in that moment. I am in control of my feelings.

this is how I paint. this is me yelling and throwing paint at a canvas… then going out into the world feeling less tension, more open… more loving. going to bed feeling less stressed, more optimistic.

Jhene has been adamantly making it known that there is no bad blood between her and Sean, and following Nipsey Hussle’s passing shared these words on Instagram in response to Big Sean’s tribute to Nip:
