Ces Cru is a hip-hop duo composed of Kansas City natives Godemis and Ubiquitous. Initially a trio, the group released its debut album Capture Enemy Soldiers, in 2004, before Sorceress stepped down, allowing Ubiquitous and Godemis to take full control of the reigns. The two artists expanded their writing techniques to accommodate new structures, resulting in Ces Cru's sophomore effort, the 2009 album The Playground.
