Kriss Kross’ Chris “Mack Daddy” Kelly Dead At 34


Hip-Hop suffered a tremendous blow tonight as we’ve learned that Mack Daddy from Kriss Kross has died. According to reports, the 34-year-old MC was found unresponsive inside his Atlanta home and was rushed to the hospital by family.
He was pronounced dead at Atlanta Medical Center around 8 p.m. eastern. The cause of his death has not been released. DJ Greg Street made the tragic announcement tonight and released the following statement.
Sad to hear the loss of my lil homie, Chris “Mac Daddy” Kelly. I met him and Chris “Daddy Mac” Smith in ’93. Their song “Jump” had been #1 on the billboard charts for eight weeks. Everyone knows Kriss Kross for their music and the crazy way they used to dress, but once they started working with So So Def, they became family.

Kriss Kross just performed at the 20th anniversary of So So Def.
Around 7:45 I received a phone call from his cousin saying they had found Kelly at the house just 20 minutes earlier and he was unresponsive.
I just received confirmation that he has passed.
Our condolences go out his family and his So So Def team.
