Dessa is truly a Renaissance woman. She's a spoken word poet, an emcee for local rap family Doomtree, and a Jerome Grant recipient who also moonlights as a technical writer by day. Her solo release "False Hopes", earned her a spot on the Star Tribune's "Top Ten Local Releases" in 2005. David Brusie of Rift Magazine aptly described Dessa's voice as "equal parts Ani Difranco and Mos Def". We were pleased to host Dessa on Making Music as she talked about her story as abundantly illustrated by a detailed PowerPoint presentation.

  • @Glopdemon I read that and spit kool aid all over my keyboard.

  • Dessa needs to talk hooking up with me, if you catch my drift.

    Do you get what I'm saying?

    Can you pick up what I'm laying down here?

    (I mean that she is smart and cool and pretty and should go out with me)

  • why does she hate hippes

  • o man, thanks for putting these up, I've been wanting to see this a long time!
