Jim Jones Recalls The First Time Chrissy Approached Him

Jim shared the throwback story while recently chatting on the ’90sBabyShow.’ The rapper, who was raised in Harlem, shared that Chrissy Lampkin is also from the area.

“I had a crush on Chrissy…Chrissy’s probably one of the flyest, baddest, dopest chicks from Harlem,” Jim said.

The first time he saw Lampkin was at a historic Harlem spot called the Mart 125, originally named the Harlem Flea Market. In 2023, Harlem World Magazine reported that Mart 125 was open between 1986 and 2002. The space served as an indoor market near the Apollo Theater. Jones said he had pulled up to the spot with Mase. At the time, Chrissy had a short haircut.

Fast-forward to 2004, Jim Jones and Chrissy Lampkin ran into each other at a Miami beach club. He claims that she “ran down on [him] and said some funny sh*t” to him.

“I was like, wow, this is crazy. In my mind, I was like, ‘Wow, I’m nervous.’ Like I’m trying to find my cool. At the moment I felt like all my cool was out the window and I feel like I’m the coolest individual in the world,” Jim shared in between flashing smiles.

At that point, the host pointed out that Lampkin still has that effect on Jones, given his blushing. Meanwhile, Chrissy hasn’t yet publicly reacted to the circulating interview clip.
