One of two male/female hip-hop duos enriching the uniquely non-sexist Twin Cities hip-hop scene (also: Villa Rosa), this one features mindful rapper and poetess Desdamona along with mind-blowing beatboxer and wordsmith Carnage. The "chemistry" in the name is as real as their stories of struggle and determination.
