Kris Kross: Totally Krossed Out
From Vondelpark’s debut album to the end of Kris Kross, our look at music this week
When Kris Kross “jumped” onto the scene in ’92, they inspired young people everywhere to get Totally Krossed Out with their Jermaine Dupri-produced debut album. They also ignited a major fashion moment where it was suddenly acceptable to wear an entire ensemble backwards—belt, baseball jersey and all. Their ephemeral reign as the daddy macs of teen rap left an indelible mark on music, and sadly, this week 34-year-old Chris Kelly, one half of the entertaining twosome, died of an overdose. Enjoy the digital version of a tape likely kept constantly on deck many years ago with a listen on Spotify.
