Kris Kross rapper Chris Kelly AKA Daddy Mac passes away BBC News - Kris Kross rapper Chris Kelly dies at 34 RIP Kris Kross rapper Chris Kelly dies at 34 Chris Kelly, one half of the 1990s rap duo Kris Kross, has died in an Atlanta hospital at the age of 34. Kelly had been found "unresponsive" at his home on Wednesday, local media reported. Kris Kross was made up of Kelly, known as "Mac Daddy", and Chris "Daddy Mac" Smith. They are most widely remembered for their 1992 hit Jump. In February, they had performed to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the So So Def label that signed them. The duo, who famously wore their clothes backwards and extra baggy, were just 13 when they were discovered in an Atlanta mall. 'Fun-loving' A joint statement released on Wednesday by So So Def and Mr Kelly's mother, Donna Kelly Pratte, called him "kind, generous and fun-loving". "It is with deep sadness that we announce that our beloved Chris Kelly has passed away on May 1. "To millions of fans worldwide, he was the trend-setting, backward pants-wearing one-half of Kriss Kross, who loved making music. But to us, he was just Chris - the kind, generous and fun-loving life of the party." "Though he was only with us a short time, we feel blessed to have been able to share some incredible moments with him. His legacy will live on through his music." There was no official confirmation of the cause of Mr Kelly's death. An autopsy is due to be held on Thursday. "It appears it may have been a possible drug overdose,'' Cpl Kay Lester, a spokeswoman for the Fulton County police, told the Associated Press. A couple of my favorite tracks: |

RIP :( |
Wearing my pants backwards at work tomorrow. If the boss doesn't like it he can fuck off. On another note though, I was surprised to hear his age. I always thought they were around my age when they came out, but they were quite a bit older. Very disappointing when someones life ends so early, and unnecessarily. |
I guess this means Kris Kross will no longer make me jump jump. |
