Kidd Creole Convicted Of Manslaughter

MANHATTAN, NY- A grand jury found rapper Kidd Creole guilty of manslaughter the death of a homeless man in 2017.

The rapper, whose real name is Nathaniel Glover, began his trial last month for the death of John Jolly who was stabbed twice in his chest with a steak knife in Midtown in August of 2017.

Kidd Creole attorney says the rapper stabbed Jolly in self-defense after the rapper found out he was gay, and he allegedly made a move on him.

Kidd Creole is known as one of the founding members of Grandmaster Flash and The Furious Five.
