Hip-hop pioneer Kidd Creole has been charged with murder in the stabbing death of a homeless man found Tuesday night on a Midtown street, police said.

Creole, whose real name is Nathaniel Glover, was arrested Wednesday and was accused of killing a 55-year-old man at the corner of E. 44th St. and Third Ave.

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.

My guess is that he killed the guy over drugs.

Serious question: who was first? Kidd Creole or Kid Creole?

Article says the guy was a convicted rapist. Karma works in mysterious ways, perhaps? I don't know...

Also states that this was all over the guy apparently hitting on him. Seems a LITTLE extreme to have let it come to that, even though "words were exchanged and led up to it"
