One Be Lo and Senim Silla possess a lethal chemistry greater than the sum of its parts. Trading verses effortlessly, the two can create magic on the mic ranging from intricate storytelling to battle raps. Hailing from Pontiac, Michigan - Lo and Senim originally met in high school and instantly developed a close friendship. However one poor decision that could have easily derailed their career, made the bond between them stronger and more focused. An armed robbery conviction landed them both in prison for a three-year sentence and during this time Binary Star officially came into existence in 1995. Post-incarceration, Binary Star goes on to release their independent Water World album in 1998, re-released as M.O.T.U. in 2000. Currently, Binary Star is performing and recording their 2nd installment, "Prodigal Suns".
