(The Root) — In the midst of Twitter mourning the loss of Chris Kelly, half of the '90s rap duo Kris Kross, who died Wednesday, there was a faction of folks who were just plumb confused about it all. We don't know which is worse: having no idea who Kris Kross is or thinking that it was singer Christopher Cross who passed away. Cross, known for his hits "Sailing" and "Arthur's Theme," is very much alive.
