As the Kidd Creole, an original member of the legendary hip hop collective, Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five, he is a respected, influential early pioneer of the culture. Today, he is Nathaniel Glover, a man battling in two different courts—the court of law and of that of public opinion. “The Boat”—also known as the Vernon C Bain Correctional Center (an 800-bed maritime dormitory jail barge anchored off the southern shore of The Bronx, directly across from Rikers Island), currently houses Glover. He has been held, without trial, since early August 2017.
Glover, 61, is charged with murder in the second degree after a run-in with John Jolly, 55, a registered sex offender who confronted him just before midnight on a midtown Manhattan street as the rap legend headed to his nearby night job as a copy operator. Later that evening, Jolly died after being admitted to Bellevue hospital. Glover has been in custody ever since, accused of stabbing John Jolly twice in the chest.
