<article id="ra-body">Rock and Roll hall of famer and hip hop pioneer, Kidd Creole has been charged with murder after fatally stabbing a homeless ex-con he thought was hitting on him on a Midtown street Tuesday night, police and sources said.<br />
Creole, whose real name is Nathaniel Glover, was arrested Wednesday and accused of killing John Jolly, 55, at E. 44th St. and Third Ave. in Mamhattan, NY<br />
Glover, 57, was one of the members of Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five, a hip hop group formed in the South Bronx in the 1970s.<br />
The one-time trailblazing emcee works near the scene of the killing as a handyman and security guard and was on his way to his job, authorities said.</p>

<p>He had a run-in with Jolly, who was drunk, a police source said.<br />
“They had no prior relationship,” the source said. “They had words. Things got out of hand. It was some sort of diss.”<br />
Glover thought Jolly, a convicted rapist and sex offender, was hitting on him, another source said.</p>

Police are trying to unravel the connection between emcee Kidd Creole and the stabbing victim John Jolly [photo]. Jolly had done time for raping a woman in the past, Creole is claiming the victim made a pass at him in Manhattan.</h6>
<p>“He turned, interpreting that the guy was making an advance toward him,” the source said. “One thing led to another, and he shivved [stabbed] him twice in the chest,” the source said.<br />
Pedestrians called 911 for Jolly just before midnight on Tuesday because they thought he was passed out, cops said.<br />
First responders were surprised to see multiple stab wounds in his chest, police said Wednesday. Medics rushed Jolly to Bellevue Hospital Center, where he died.</p>
<h6 class="ra-caption"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-227184" src="https://konniemoments.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/nathaniel-glover-aka-kidd-creole-2.jpg" alt="Nathaniel Glover, aka Kidd Creole 2" width="1200" height="896" />whose real name is Nathaniel Glover, aka Kidd Creole, was arrested Wednesday. He is expected charged in fatal knifing of a 55-year-old John Jolly, a homeless man at the corner of E. 44th St. and Third Ave.</h6>
<p>“There were six people there, all tourists, all trying to help him,” said Van Scott, of Queens.<br />
“They thought he was overcome by the heat and then they saw he was stabbed. We just waited for the paramedics to come.”<br />
Glover was partly identified through surveillance video.</p>

<p>“He gave some statements and he’s being charged,” a police source said.<br />
A handcuffed Glover was walked out of the Midtown South Precinct on W. 35th St. on Wednesday, led by detectives.<br />
The somber-looking elder statesman of rap, wearing a blue janitorial outfit, said nothing as he was placed into the back of a waiting car.</p>

<p>Neighbors at Glover’s Bronx building were stunned to hear of his arrest.<br />
“That is so sad, I’m really in shock right now,” said a 72-year-old woman who lived downstairs from Glover. “He was the sweetest man I’ve ever met. Everybody liked him, I’m really about to cry.”<br />
Suit-clad detectives were seen leaving Glover’s apartment with brown paper evidence bags.<br />
The victim had a rap sheet that included time done for sexual assaults. Jolly served 5 years in prison for beating and raping a 42-year-old woman in 1997, state correction records show. Then went back to jail in 2008 and did nearly 3 years on a weapons charge, authorities said.<br />
Police say the level 2 sex offender was homeless and staying at a shelter on the Bowery.<br />
Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five introduced rap to a mainstream audience. The group’s biggest release was a classic called “The Message,” with the famous hook: “Don’t push me ‘cause I’m close to the edge. I’m trying not to lose my head.”<br />
The band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2007, the first hip hop group to make the cut.</p>
