Is August Alsina's new track about Jada Pinkett?

Earlier this month, August claimed in an interview with Angela Yee that he and Jada were once romantically involved.

He also made the revelation that Will Smith gave them his blessing beforehand.

It wasn't long before Jada addressed the issue during a conversation with her husband on Red Table Talk.

She admitted there is some truth to August's comments, referring to their past relationship as an, "entanglement."

Jada and Will confirmed they had separated by the time she and August became intimate.

They're adamant that Will did not give his blessing, however, they understand how August may have interpreted it as that.

Jada said, "What August was actually trying to communicate — because I could actually see how he would perceive it as permission because we were separated amicably — I think he also wanted to make it clear that he’s not a homewrecker, which he’s not."

After the episode aired, August shared his thoughts on Jada's use of the word, "entanglement," to describe their relationship.

He told Vulture, 'I don't know why that word is such an issue. I would agree [with Jada].'

'If you look up the definition of, 'entanglement,' it is a complex and difficult relationship. It was exactly that.'

Entanglements

August has since released a brand new song titled Entanglements, believed to be about Jada.

He sings, "The definition of entanglement / It's when you're tangled in the sheets"

"Girl I know that we don't call it a relationship / But you're still f**kin' with me"

As per Genius, the lyrics read, "Shawty leanin' on my shoulder/ got her questionin' my willpower"

"Jaded by her beauty/ but her reputation real solid/ Mornin' down the hallway/ I can tell you how I feel about it"

"Caught up in the Matrix/ and I doubt if I can get up out it"

August sings about broken promises, "Tell you all my darkest stories/ promise that you won't depart"

"Do this sh*t like every weekend/ guess I'm just her little secret/ Entanglement is when a man'll lick until you tremble"

"Saddest part is I still love you/ just to keep it simple"

Jada hasn't commented further.
