90s hip hop group Kriss Kross was made up of rappers Chris Smith and Chris Kelly, with the pair finding fame thanks to their hit debut single Jump, which was released in 1992
Discovered when they were just 13 years old, rappers Chris Smith and Chris Kelly quickly found fame as hip hop duo Kriss Kross. The duo teamed up with producer Jermaine Dupri and they quickly topped the charts.
In 1993, Kriss Kross' second album, Da Bomb, was released and three years later, the pair released their third and final album, titled Young, Rich & Dangerous. It wasn't just their hit tracks they were famed for, as the two rappers became known for their signature fashion style quirk of wearing their clothes backwards.
However, the pair's career came to a tragic end when rapper Chris Kelly passed away in 2013. He was found unresponsive at his home before being taken to a hospital in Atlanta. It was later revealed he'd died from a drugs overdose. The Fulton County medical examiner concluded that the rapper’s death was an accident caused by the combined toxic effects of heroin, cocaine, ethanol and hydrocodone, and alprazolam.
