(WENN) - Rap duo Kris Kross is reuniting to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Jermaine Dupri's So So Def Records.

Chris 'Mac Daddy' Kelly and Chris 'Daddy Mac' Smith formed Kris Kross in 1992 and released their smash hit "Jump," which topped the charts for eight weeks.

They disbanded in 1996 after three albums, but now they are reforming for a special concert to mark their former record label's milestone.

Announcing the concert, Dupri says, "Not only is it an honor to be able to stand here 20 years after our very first release in 1993 - Xscape's #1 single 'Just Kickin It' - but it's truly an achievement that we can bring everyone back together to celebrate over two decades of music excellence. We also acknowledge 1992 as the year when So So Def Productions introduced to the world Kris Kross, who had everyone jumping."

Da Brat, Xscape, Bow Wow and Jagged Edge will also be performing at the Fox Theater in Atlanta, Georgia on February 23rd.
