ATLANTA (CBS ATLANTA) -

An investigator with the Fulton County Medical Examiner's Office tells CBS Atlanta's Tony McNary that Christopher Kelly, 34, was found dead in his south Fulton County home around 4:30 p.m. Wednesday. An autopsy will be performed on his body Thursday.

A spokeswoman with the Fulton County Police Department said unless the medical examiner finds out something different, it appears Kelly died of a drug overdose.

Kelly was a member of the early '90s hip hop duo Kriss Kross with Chris "Daddy Mac" Smith. Their 1992 debut album, Totally Krossed Out, was a big hit. In '93 their song Jump was No. 1 on the Billboard charts.

The duo became popular for wearing their pants backwards.

CBS Atlanta is working to find out more about Kelly's death.
