Chris "Mac Daddy" Kelly, one half of the
1990s rap duo Kriss Kross, has died at an Atlanta hospital at the age of 34, a
Fulton County Medical Examiner spokesman has confirmed.
Dumonder Dawson, an investigator for the medical
examiner's office, said Kelly died on Wednesday evening. He declined to discuss
the cause of the rapper's death.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution newspaper reported
that Kelly had been found unresponsive at his home and that an autopsy had been
scheduled for this morning.
Atlanta native Kelly and Chris Smith made up Kriss
Kross, which was best known for the 1992 hit single "Jump."
