CES may stand for:
Vincenzo de Cesati (1806 - 1883) was an Italian botanist who was a native of Milan.
He studied natural history and law at the University of Vienna, and afterwards worked as a volunteer at the Collegium Nacionale de Vercelli. From 1868 to 1883 he was director of the botanical garden at Naples. The majority of his plant collection is now preserved at the botanical institute of the University of Rome.
With Giovanni Passerini (1816-1893) and Giuseppe Gibelli (1831-1898), he was author of Compendio della flora italiana, a 35-volume compendium of Italian flora that was published between 1868 and 1886. Other written works by Cesati include:
The plant genus Cesatia from the family Apiaceae is named after him.

Cru or CRU may refer to:
Cru was an American hip hop group formally signed to Def Jam Recordings composed of three members, Chadio, Mighty Ha and Yogi. The group's first appearance was the "We Got It Goin' On" remix by R&B group Changing Faces in 1995. Two years later the group released their debut album, Da Dirty 30, which featured three singles "Just Another Case" "Pronto" and "Bubblin'". After the release of the album, the group disbanded with Yogi becoming a successful hip hop producer. After a long hiatus, Chadio resumed his career and released an album titled "Internal Insurgency" via iTunes in 2009.
Cru is "a vineyard or group of vineyards, especially one of recognized quality". It is a French wine term which is traditionally translated as "growth", as it was originally the past participle of the verb "croitre" (to grow). As a wine term it is closely connected to terroir in the sense of an "extent of terrain having a certain physical homogeneity . . . considered from the point of view of the nature of the soil as communicating a particular character to its produce, notably to wine". It may thus be defined as: "Terroir as a place of production" or an "Ensemble of terrains considered from the point of view of what grows there, from a particular cultivation." More specifically, cru is often used to indicate a specifically named and legally defined vineyard or ensemble of vineyards and the vines "which grow on [such] a reputed terroir; by extension of good quality." The term is also used to refer to the wine produced from such vines. The term cru is often used within classifications of French wine. By implication, a wine that displays (or is allowed to display) the name of its cru on its wine label is supposed to exhibit the typical characteristics of this cru. The terms Premier Cru, Grand Cru, etc., are generally translated into English as First Growth, Great Growth, etc.; they designate levels of presumed quality that are variously defined in different wine regions.
I've been lied to, bust out
Passed over and cussed out
Now I'm up nights
Strugglin' to keep it in the uprights
No touchdown
I've been,
Been high but I cut down
Had to calm down
Tryin' to stay sane
Got up in the game, it affected my brain
Now I feel like I've gone half nuts now, AH
Came up in a rough town
Town made me and the town tough
KC MO where the crew is CES
And we built this thing from the ground up, AH
Fall down, but I bounced up
So grateful that Tech found us
If he never would of done that, man
I wonder where in the hell I would of wound up
I'm a Pound Pup, but dont push this
You'll make a bad dog out a good pit
We could be B.F.s like Goodrich
As long as I'm a little more than hoodrich
My chakras are all wind-up
Energy flowin' on the constant
When it burst forth from my fingertips
Its a good night, no long kiss
Since 13 I've been clocked in
Since playground I've been on point
Since "Capture Enemies", I've weighed in
Like a Iron giant with a strong voice
Its "Matter don't Money", you can pay me
1-9-7-9, when it made me
Now I change ways
Tryin' to stay sane in these fast times
And these Strange days
Here I go, fire it up
Glow same color as a firetruck
Last dragon on bathsalts
Up up and away, I'm high as fuck
In the pocket, I'm poppin off
Pinpoint but not proper
Stealin' energy from my enemies
Takin' in through my chakras
Steal verses, deal curses
Every now and then I feel worthless
Walkin' around in the presence of greatness
Why would a nigga not feel nervous
Guess we got a dual purpose, and
Rep the Midi, it feels worth it
Came in the game with a ball and chain
Ain't a damn thing change, I'm still workin'
Still lurkin', still perpin'
Chong-in out when I'm in the booth
And my team is up to par
Y'all can hit the bar
I ain't lying and my shits the proof
No capsizin' when I'm flowin'
These waves dont play fair
I wade through my night-dreams
Backstroke through my day-mares
They dont care, I dont either
Still rockin' that wife pleaser
Its CES Cru, and we cliqued up
So we roll with, no leader
I'm in a mood to, the repeater
I'm in a gunfight packin' the cleaver
And in a moment my opponent better feel me
Like I was rappin' the ether
HA
I ask for truth
You act aloof
I say some things to get back to you
Lifes 10% what happens to you
Other 90% all attitude
I'm shatterproof
Built strong enough
To maintain my will, or We'll call your bluff
I'm doin' this thing for all of us
If I lose my feet, I'm still fallin' up
I got a hand out, whats there for me?
No ground to stand on, no air to breathe
You scared of me?
Walk on my fear and recieve power through clarity
Move carefully, we shed our fate
You care for me, I care the same
Same story to play poor me
Intimidation, interrogate
I serenade, debut the dance
Music I make
Movin' hand, move your hands
Soothe your soul
Make you go crazy and lose control
Whats beautiful, whats good to you?
Whats worth the process they put you through?
Can't shake the pain on day to day
It all fades away when I look at you
I push the truth, why live a lie
With a room like this, I could ill survive
Got bills to pay, big fish to fry
Excuse me while I kiss the sky
Its time, hands on the clocks spun down
We not gonna keep truth lock up
Its comin' out
Runnin' out of options on the real
Nobody gonna stop us
Here we are
A-planin'
Maintaining our amps and
Beaten up the beat heatin up the street
Megatron and my hand cannon
I'm motorin'
I'm in the mode again
Energy overloadin'
I'm goin' in
Could it be we frozen
Non colder than
Literally shogun, and honin' my craft
They blinded by our shine
81-6 its our time
They dont know how the fuck we got here
Do the math on that it was our grind
Yall fadin' out like a star dying
Scared to fail but dont start tryin'
This I bet, better kick the deck
And eat dirt when all of these darts flyin'
Our rhymin' is hard timin'
Staring up at our stars alignin'
Posted up in that gold mine
And my whole mind is on cloud nine
We dont need thumbs up, no co-sign
These dumb fucks wanna blow lines
Long as its on your dime I dont give a shit
No I dont mind
The snake and the bat are back in the back of the building
Stackin' a milli
Rapping a circle around em
And everybody in this squad is packin' a milli
Back in a minute
Yall already know what time it is
See the rap is the gimmick
Say my mind is the only weapon I'mma get to use
Im attackin' them with it
Dig it
Dig it
Dig it
