"Jump" is a song by American hip hop duo Kris Kross, released on February 6, 1992, as their first single from their debut studio album, Totally Krossed Out (1992). It achieved international success, topping charts in Switzerland, Australia, and the United States.

Composition "Jump", a hip hop song, was written and produced by Jermaine Dupri and Joe "The Butcher" Nicolo. Chris "Mac Daddy" Kelly and Chris "Daddy Mac" Smith were only 12 and 13 years old when they recorded the song. The song samples "I Want You Back" by The Jackson 5, "Funky Worm" by Ohio Players, "Impeach the President" by The Honey Drippers, "How I Could Just Kill a Man" by Cypress Hill, "Escape-Ism" by James Brown, "Saturday Night" by Schoolly D, and a replay of "O.P.P." by Naughty by Nature. At the beginning of their song they dissed another kid group Another Bad Creation when Chris "Mac Daddy" Kelly said "don't try to compare us to another bad little fad". The original song's introduction contained a sample of Another Bad Creation's song "Playground" which was followed by a scratching sound giving the effect that their record was being taken off to play "Jump". This was soon removed due to copyright infringement. Chart performance "Jump" was very successful on the charts all over the world and remains the duo's biggest hit.
