Jada Koren in Wicked Wisdom

Wicked Wisdom is a heavy metal rock band that formed in 2002. Jada goes by her first and middle names in Wicked Wisdom - Jada Koren. In 2004, the group opened for Britney Spears Onyx Hotel Tour. The group was still brand new and the tour was a first. Jada knew that her band had to prove their sound. The people had petitioned against being added to Ozzfest. After the seventh gig, the people cheered Wicked Wisdom’s show. As Jada says, they “were on fire” - a complete turnabout. Jada does lead vocals, Wirm does guitar, keyboard and backup vocals; and Rio does bass and backup vocals. Jada’s husband, Will Smith’s company, Overbrook Entertainment manages Wicked Wisdom.
