Now that I think about it... @
Wacky D jumped into the thread out of nowhere and took to defending Kriss Kross against my baseless accusations. Blame him

keep it real kid.
yall were already arguing about that before i came in here with my 1 post.
and wacky has nothin to do with this. come at me. runny-ray the don.
That was me Wacky (at least in this thread). IR said he thought it was Illegal. I could be wrong about the whole thing. I thought JD was trying to capitalize off the popularity of kids groups. I'll defer to whatever you guys say is right. ABC/Kriss Kross is outside of my comfort zone.
Muggs does claim they stole the idea for Jump from him.
whats wrong with that? is ABC supposed to be the only kids rap group ever? by that logic, we wouldnt have genres. there would be just 1 rapper, 1 soul singer, 1 rock group, 1 country quartet, etc etc.
and like dudey said, ABC wasnt even a str8 up rap group. they were an r&b/rap hybrid. basically BBD for kids.
kriss kross was the first full-fledged kids rap group actually.
that's what it comes down to though. cats were little kids when they were popular. obviously we were all young once, but I'm not gonna front like older heads were into those Chipmunks tapes I used to listen to
nobody is insinuating that theyre a goat group or anything.
the bottom line is, their releases were of actual quality.
and "tonights the night" was no kiddie record and it was something like a big hit in '96. just say you gave them the cold shoulder and keep it movin.
