Biography
Ruby Weapon was formed in 2007 out of freestyle rapping and impromptu dance battles performed on the dance floor of local Chicago clubs and parties.
Ruby Weapon is a mobile hiphop-dance-battle-assault team.
We are two emcees, a DJ, and a hype man. Ruby Weapon seeks to transcend the ‘hiphop’ parody dynamic – we have evolved into a strange new genre of multi-layered mash-up content and goofyness. We rap about things like quarter life crises, ass, Nintendo Power and Beckett monthly, and WNBA power forwards.
Ruby Weapon sounds like A Tribe Called Quest had a baby with Peaches that was raised by Sharkula inside of the Mac store.

Make It So #1 - Rapper/producer/activist/hacktivist
Dr. Dunk - Rapper/videographer/b-boy/producer, front man
