Justin Laboy is kicking off 2025 in a major way. He relaunched his #Respectfully show and had Jim Jones as his first guest.
The man known for his witty memes is bringing back his signature platform. This week Justin Laboy brought back his #Respectfully show and the debut show did not disappoint one bit. The social media icon got Jim Jones to discuss a variety of topics surrounding his career, personal life, professional relationships and much more. While the “We Set The Trends” performer tends to keep his love life private he did speak about his long time girlfriend Chrissy Lampkin.

During the conversation, Capo revealed he and Lampkin originally formally met in Miami even though they both are from Harlem. He went on to confirm that they will definitely be tying the knot after many years of being exclusive. “I come from a day where you get married that’s who you’re with forever. We are about to get it going” he said.
Of course, his relationship with Cam’ron and MA$E was also a topic of discussion. Jim Jones made it clear while he is happy for their success with the It Is What It Is show, he explained that the “Feel So Good” MC wasn’t always the nicest to Cam’ron. “I watched MA$E sh*t on Cam’ and everyone around him; all the time. Cam’s enemies were my enemies and I already seen how he was handling Cam’ so I definitely didn’t like him [MA$E]” Jim explained. He also claimed that he inspired Cam’ron to start wearing pink during the height of his career.

Jim Jones has never been one to bite his tongue and over the weekend the Harlem representative had the sneaker community buzzing when he shared some of his thoughts on the current state of the sneaker culture.
Taking to Instagram to share some of his thoughts on the sneaker game, Jim began his random rant by stating, “Sneakers culture started with drug dealers, argue wit ur mamma.” While he’s not wrong, many were caught off guard by the blunt statement, but Jim didn’t stop there. In the caption, he went on to explain “Who made Nike n Reebok’s fly and before [that] pumas [and] Adidas Michael Jordan made ’em, but [the] drug dealers made me want to buy them. Now a days most basketball sneakers are not fashionable any more, [it’s] why a lot of sneaker companies [are] losing right now.”
Again, the man isn’t wrong. The sneaker silhouettes of today’s top sports superstars really seem geared more towards on-court and on-field appeal than something you can rock with a fly outfit. But he didn’t stop there, Jim then went off on online sneaker personalities who’ve made names for themselves in the sneaker community saying, “I b watchin all these weird dudes doing sneakers shows [and] sneakers reviews never had to hustle to get pair they don’t know [the] risk to thrill factor. Most of them never had a pair of Jordans when they [came] out they only brought retros.”
You have to wonder which one of them said something that irked Jim to the point that he had to make this post to get his point across.
If you know anything about Jim Jones, you know that the man is a big sneakerhead. Like most of us OGs, he has an affinity for retro Jordans and Nikes, and like most of us older heads, he isn’t too impressed with the new silhouettes and designs that the big sneaker brands have been releasing over the last few years.
Why he decided to go on this sneaker rant is anyone’s guess, but at the end of the day the man isn’t wrong and we have to ride with him on this one. Not about the weird sneaker personalities, but everything else, sure why not.
What do y’all think about Jim Jones’ statements about the current state of the sneaker culture? Let us know in the comments section below.

Jim Jones was recently involved in an airport brawl with two men in a wild scene that saw the men tumbling down an escalator before the authorities intervened. According to new reports, Jim Jones will not face charges as it was determined he was acting in self-defense.
As reported by TMZ, Jim Jones was traveling first class to Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport and upon landing attempted to retrieve his bags from an overhead compartment, which angered a fellow passenger. Jones sternly warned the man after he bumped him and reportedly grabbed his arm while another man began yelling at him.
Deputies were called to the plane but the men exited without moving forward with charges while heading to baggage claim. It was there when one of the men physically approached Jones with the other man from the plane incident joining in. Jones picked one man up and slammed him while another kept hitting Jones from behind. Officers quickly swarmed to the scene and broke the fight up with one of the men looking worse for wear.
Surveillance video of the brawl backed the claims Jones made that he didn’t start the brawl. The Harlem rapper and businessman told TMZ Hip Hop, “I was minding my business and defended myself. They got what they were looking for.”
They most certainly did.
Check out the fight footage below.

While the Hip-Hop culture was fixated and taken aback by Kendrick Lamar and Drake’s rap warfare over the weekend, Jim Jones was able to make some news himself as he found himself getting involved in a physical altercation at the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport.
According to TMZ, the “We Fly High (Ballin’)” rapper got into a fistfight on an escalator with two older white men who obviously didn’t know that Jones was ’bout that life.

In the video obtained by TMZ, Jones is seen arguing with one man before picking him up and throwing him down the escalator where he landed on another elderly man who ended up injured in the melee. Once Jones got to the bottom of the escalator the fight continued as another man began pounding away at the Harlem rapper while he was still fighting off the first guy who seemingly started the entire situation.
Per TMZ:
A woman rushes to turn off the escalator, but the fight continues despite protests from others hoping to get away from the violent scene.
Finally, a pair of officers break up the fight … with Jim letting go of the man he’s holding pretty quick — who appears to be gushing blood BTW. He protests, yelling, “It’s two of them against me,” but he allows the officer to lead him away and sit him in a chair.
One of the other individuals isn’t quite so calm … trying to pull out of a sheriff’s deputy’s grasp — though more officers arrive on the scene and stop him from going any further.
We reached out to Jim who tells TMZ Hip Hop … “I was minding my business and defended myself. They got what they were looking for.’
In the video Jones kept telling the officers that the men assaulted him. As he took his seat, the man who Jones was fighting was acting belligerent and giving the officers a hard time. Seems like Jim Jones was indeed standing up for himself if that man’s behavior is any indication.
Our only question is, where was Jones’ peoples? It’s not like him to roll around alone. Had he been with his crew, it would’ve been a wrap for those old men. Just sayin’.
Peep Jones speak on the situation below—he says he’s “alright.”

Jadakiss and Jim Jones joined forces to march with healthcare workers to the New York governor’s office to demand action on Medicaid.
On Saturday (March 23), members of the 1199SEIU healthcare workers union marched in New York City to the office of New York Governor Kathy Hochul to protest the new restrictions that she has placed concerning Medicaid. Joining them on the march were two top-notch rappers – Jadakiss and Jim Jones. The Dipset MC shared footage of himself and the Lox artist marching with the healthcare workers in the rain in a post on Instagram.
“What we doin?” Jadakiss asks as Jim Jones holds up the camera to capture the moment. “We gettin’ our steps on like Malcolm and Martin, out here for a good cause,” Jones replies. In the caption of the post, he wrote: “Special shout out to all the #1199Healthcare workers who show up for the cause today and march to fight for [what’s] right,” also adding:
“The government is only covering 70 percent of Medicaid cost at our new York hospitals [and] clinics. This 30 percent gap is causing underfunding [which] cause the hospitals to b[e] understaffed then eventually havin’ to close [their] doors. To prevent this from happening we [need] everyone to let the governor know we need the 30 percent to [be] implemented immediately. Shouts to @hot97 [and] @funkflex for keeping the city united when we need it the most @jadakiss.”
In January, 1199SEIU called on Governor Hochul to stop underpaying the state’s hospitals on Medicaid claims. Currently, only 70% of all bills under Medicaid are paid fully. “Over seven million New Yorkers rely on Medicaid services, the majority of whom come from Black and Latino communities. Despite the fact that Medicaid provides vital coverage to these New Yorkers, the state pays hospitals 30% less than the actual cost of needed care,” their statement reads. The practice has led to the closure of two major hospitals in New York City and 15 maternity centers in the state.
The march is the second time Jadakiss has been spotted outside in service of the people. He was recently seen offering support to those incarcerated in the Rikers Island prison system, bringing them pizza from the viral eatery, Cuts N’ Slices.
“Didn’t break my fast but I did let the brothers enjoy the meal and festivities,” he wrote in the caption.

Though Jim Jones has a reputation for getting his thug on out in these streets, over the years the Harlem representative has been doing what he can to uplift his community. And his efforts have not gone unnoticed.
After putting together various giveaways and back to school drives over the years, Jim Jones found himself the recipient of PIX11’s Community Hero Award for the good the man has been doing in his hometown of Harlem.
Though the interview didn’t air until Tuesday (Nov. 27), in early November, the Dip Set Capo sat down with Monica Morales to talk about his Thanksgiving giveaway, why he felt the need to give back to his community and where the inspiration came from. “It’s something I’ve been compelled to do since I started to make some money,” Jim said. “Coming up watching hustlers, that was one of the things they did. They used to take care of the neighborhood. They was the people that was getting all the money. It’s my turn now.”
Making the most of his turn to give back, Jim has really been trying to do what he can to get others to help him in his effort to uplift the less fortunate. From getting in the ear of Mayor Eric Adams for an NYC dance competition to trying to get Nike to begin a program to bless school students with free Nike attire (good luck with that), Jim’s been making the most of his celebrity to get others involved in his newfound mission. We love it. If only more rappers took that initiative.
Check out Jim’s interview segment around the 8:15 minute-mark below along with some IG posts of Jim doing good for the hood. Let us know your thoughts on him getting the Community Hero Award in the comments section.

Dee-1 sparked the ire of Rick Ross, Meek Mill, and Jim Jones after making comments about the musical output of his fellow Hip-Hop artists, and is now looking to smooth over their issues. Despite getting less than favorable replies from the aforementioned trio, Dee-1 says he hopes that the dustup could lead to an eventual conversation.
Dee-1 was a guest on Shade 45’s Sway In The Morning program around two weeks ago speaking on some of his recent moves both in music and in the activism space where he’s also put his energy toward. During that chat, the New Orleans rapper had harsh words for Ross, Mill, and Jones, urging them to use their massive fame and influence for positive change.
Dee-1’s words reached the ears of Ross, Mill, and Jones, with Rozay recording a series of videos addressing Dee-1 and explaining how he and Jones give back to their respective communities in ways that aren’t always highly publicized. Jones, in his eloquence, also shared his disdain for the criticism and essentially said that Dee should have reached out to him to discuss any particulars.
In a new interview via B High TV that aired over the weekend, Dee-1 realized he may have spoken from an uninformed space and hopes that a conversation can occur between the artists.
“Jim Jones, I love you; Meek Mill, I love you; Rick Ross, I love you,” Dee-1 says in the interview. “The world wants it to become something negative and unhealthy, but let’s make sure we use this as an opportunity to educate and to communicate.”
He continued, “And if that means we can be friends at the end of this, cool. If we can’t ever be friends, cool, all good. Just go be a better man of God and I’m a try to be the best man of God I can be, and it’s Gucci.”

Fabolous is sharing his opinion on the current state of rap by honing in on what he considers redundancy in female rap.
Taking to social media, the Hip-Hop veteran shared his opinion on the sector of the genre that is leading the pack, sharing that he’s “happy” to see so many women doing their thing in Hip Hop, he’d love it if some of these “strong” women incorporated topics about their life experiences in their rhymes a little more.
“I love hearing female rappers talking some real sh-t,” Fab wrote on his Instagram Story on Sunday (Jul. 16). “Women are so strong. Have so many stories and perspectives that we need to hear in pure form. No disrespect to any female rappers out there but I think there’s only one style of female rap/Hip Hop being promoted, programmed, and looked at as successful now.”
While Fab is calling for diversity, other rappers are weighing in on the influx of femcees dominating the charts, including Lil Baby, Lola Brooke, Glorilla and Lil Durk have all acknowledged women’s current reign, with Durk crediting them for being competitive and focused on their love for Hip Hop rather than the business side.
“Make hip hop fun again we understand everybody got money but let’s f–k em up like we was doing s/o the females who been working salute keep going up,” Lil Durk wrote in his Instagram story last month.
Fabolous is no stranger to supporting female artists, the Street Family head honcho previously collaborated with some of Hip-Hop’s most notable female emcees, including Missy Elliott, Lil’ Kim, Foxy Brown, and Nicki Minaj. Three of his biggest songs in particular, “Take You Home,” “What Should I Do,” and “Can’t Let You Go,” were all created alongside Baltimore artist Lil’ Mo.
In other Fabolous news, the rapper has announced plans to drop a fitness Hip-Hop album with Jim Jones, Dave East, and Maino titled Fit Lit, along with an appearance in Paramount+ Hip-Hop documentary, Mixtape,–followed by the official soundtrack.
As previously reported, the film highlights how authorities got involved in the downfall of the mixtape game and ultimately screwed up a once-thriving portion of the Hip-Hop game. In addition to Fabolous, DJ Green Lantern, A$AP Rocky, 2 Chainz, DJ Khaled, KRS-One, DJ Drama, and Jeezy will also make appearances in the film.
