I don't know what to say or think about this. I'm a bit in shock
Atlanta Police say that Chris "Mac Daddy" Kelly was found unresponsive in his home and was taken to hospital where he was pronounced dead at 5:00 PM at the age of 34.
He was 1/2 of the early 90s rap duo Kriss Kross which included Chris "Daddy Mac" Smith. The duo had a hit with the song Jump. They were discovered by then 19 year old Jermaine Dupree.
Details are sketchy at this point as an autopsy has yet to be performed.
My condolences go out to Chris Kelly and his family.

Just read about this on the 'net. I'm shocked and saddened by this news. Here's one bus he was hoping to miss...
There is rumor of a possible overdose, but we won't know until after the autopsy. Anyway... RIP Chris Kelly.

The group hasn't been relevant in almost 20 years and I do remember "Jump" And "Warm It Up". RIP Chris.

I remember those as well. Don't remember any of their other songs.
Great to see you on here again, Apollonia!

His singles "Ride Like The Wind" (with Michael MacDonald's backing vocals) and "Sailing" also rocked.
RIP Kris Kross.

This was another popular song of theirs. I think it was their best song. It wasn't a huge crossover hit like "Jump" or "Warm It Up", but it still did fairly well and has been all but forgotten.
