Band Members: Invincible is considered a dangerous lyrical warrior whose verses are steeped in defiance. It is rumored her lab in the microgalaxy known as Detroit, MI, has been the headquarters for historic metamorphosis with conspirators including her crew the (all female hiphop collective) ANOMOLIES, Finale, Suheir Hammad, and Waajeed of bling47/PPP. Splitting her time between youth organizing with Detroit Summer’s Live Arts Media Project, the US Palestine Youth Solidarity Network, and constant touring she blurs the line between art and activism. Invincible’s latest evolution, and long awaited solo debut: "Shapeshifters", promises to be even more rebelliously appealing to the masses than her previous work.
