Did anybody ever find out why T.I Dissed Kriss Kross

[Dreamzeedream]

This is pretty old and i was tryin to find out along time ago but for some reason i never found out why.The song was "Told You So" off the king album



Way back when Kriss-Kross was hollering "Jump" on ya tube
They was still gettin jumped at school, we used to tote them tools
Don't get me wrong I'll give respect to them dudes
But approach us wrong, and we'll smoke them fools, ain't no joke it's the truth fukk a hater, let 'em do what it do -T.I

don’t know if you still around op…. But I just heard this bar clearly with attention paid and was …..wonder was TI and his folks scrappin wit Kriss Kross the daddy macks….shyts brazy

I don't think those was a diss. If they were still going to public school at the time "Jump" was huge, I could see them being targets just because. I mean, you'd have classmates trying them just to say "I punked Kriss Kross" or "I beat up Kriss Kross".

Daddy Mack and Young Dro were close friends. So they definitely all knew each other.

which is wild because he looked just like them. maybe they didn't let him in the group

But to speak on them bein jumped seems a lil petty to mention about them…especially since that song Jump came out bout 15 years or so before it….. I think they all had issues as youngins….


Just wish somebody interviewing TI would ask him

LOL. Kriss Kross was a JD creation. They weren't trying to be rappers. He pretty much made them a group because they had the swag and the look, but they weren't rappers.

But the question is …where they scrappers ?

The interview below implies they were. T.I. talks about knowing them and how their personalities didn't match the music. They were from the streets, but the music they made didn't reflect that:

He was biting the hell out of Death Row sound. That’s why Death Row dissed him. I actually like it though. It wasn’t bad like how Master P was biting and making wacker versions. JD bites was actually good!

Wow…. didn’t know this…jermaine should have just let them rep from the block

The King album?

I thought for sure that any reference to Kris Kross would be off his debut album. Typical stature/clout / females sweating who bullshyt probably.

TIP used to write for Bow Wow, JD's artist. I bet JD had TIP write for Kriss Kross at some point
