There's no mention of anything after 1996. What happened to these kids? Where are they now? SenorCrunchy (talk) 17:27, 31 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=do6UHUT3L7o Between the sandwhich of insanity, there is some truth to this video. They were "discovered" at age 12, today one is in hiding under an alias and the other is an assisstant manager at a resturaunt. Why? Because they were pretty much sex slaves to a few music producers, and their parents were bought until 1996, when they both turned 18, and totally broke having never been paid a cent in their adult lives, went into hiding for awhile. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.199.75.148 (talk) 13:56, 4 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

kris kross has inspired me a lot and why did they stop rapping, i dont know but they really need to come back. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.136.211.117 (talk) 01:37, 13 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Why did they delete the information about Chris Smith's ethnicity? We need to see biracial people represented, and it is diappointing that there are so few examples in the media as it is.Menda O (talk) 20:48, 12 January 2008 (UTC)Menda O[reply]

wait is any of this shit true? 141.213.187.12 (talk) 06:49, 25 January 2008 (UTC)drunk[reply]

How does this violate BLP? Equazcion •✗/C • 19:45, 17 Feb 2008 (UTC)

What was the point of deleting the Ж without an edit summary? How is the band's logo not encyclopedic? --Damian Yerrick (talk | stalk) 02:39, 29 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Why does the voice in Jump sound like a girl? -71.188.51.58 (talk) 14:48, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Because it was recorded before the rappers reached puberty. Boys and girls don't sound very different until just before puberty. The article says they were about 13 when Totally Krossed Out was released. --Damian Yerrick (talk | stalk) 14:52, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The article needs to be corrected for accurate information, and also not to discredit other artists. In the article it states Kriss Kross' 1992 song "Jump" spent 8 weeks at number one and became the [quote] "first rap song to have achieved so long a run at the top. No other rap song had led the chart for that length of time." [unquote] MC Hammer's "U Can't Touch This" spent 8 weeks at number-one in the year 1990. So it is inaccurate to say that "Jump" was the first rap song to spend this length of time at number one. The article needs to be updated to state "at 8 weeks, it was one of the longest number-one running rap songs" or something to that effect. This also means another artist isn't discredited for their achievement, in this case, MC Hammer. -Also, RIP Chris Kelly. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.251.112.134 (talk) 20:20, 6 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately I am not very good at editing Wikipedia Articles let alone adding new information in to a 'box' that I wouldn't know where to start, plus this seems to be a Semi-protected Article. So if someone could please add his Date of Birth and his Date of Death plus his age like you see on the vast majority of article about people living or dead (Date of Birth and age included by default and probably updates itself). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.30.208.49 (talk) 16:16, 8 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There is no notation about Kris Kross ever appearing on A Different World season 6 Episode 11 Original Teacher. They appear as juvenile delinquent who were locked but sent to a mentoring program at Holman. MNKing68 (talk) 01:46, 23 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
