Every year, new luminaries light up in the sky of Russian pop music. One of these supernovas is TARAS - the benchmark. Who it is is of interest to anyone who has fallen in love with his music.
Russian rap scene
Rap originated on the expanses of American soil as the protest music of blacks who sang the life of criminal black ghettos. However, the musical techniques and styles that were invented by the representatives of this movement turned out to be so popular that they crossed the borders of the continents. Now French, German, and even Chinese performers can subscribe to the word "rap".
The theme of the songs has expanded significantly and began to relate primarily to the problems that a person faces, as well as love and club topics.
It is safe to say that Russian hip-hop (or, what is the same, Russian rap) has a sufficient degree of originality to be considered independent. musical genre, on a par with the work of blacks in the United States. Key Russian-speaking hip-hop artists - Decl, Casta, Basta, Delfin, Guf - occupy a prominent place in the world of Russian music.
A separate and one of the most significant trends in Russian rap is the so-called gangsta(or "street") rap dedicated to the problems of ordinary guys from not always prosperous families. One of those who sings of their way of life is the rapper TARAS.
Rapper TARAS: who is it?
Under the pseudonym TARAS hides Krasnoyarsk musician Dmitry Tarasov, which performs in the genre of street rap. He quickly won the favor of the audience and all-Russian fame with his simple texts, which take the soul and at the same time do not hide the "dirty" sides of life.
When working with fans, TARAS actively uses all the possibilities of the Internet:
- His VKontate group has several tens of thousands of people;
- In the iTunes online music store, it occupies the top lines among the representatives of the genre.
The popularity of the performer grew so rapidly that in July 2016 he became a welcome guest on the Morning Coffee program of the local private TV channel Afontovo.
He is a fan of the Krasnoyarsk football club Yenisei.
Despite the harshness and frankness of the text, Taras does not hesitate to help society: in the summer of 2016, in particular, he, together with the public of motorists Antikop, participated in an event to help the orphanage.
Album "In Flight Mode"
In 2016, TARAS released his debut album, which was recorded with the participation of the following colleagues:
- Kuban;
- Andrew Toronto;
- Sergey Titov (made a remix);
- Its.
Some tracks from the album were recorded long before its release. For example, the songs “Alive with her” and “Naked buzz” made a lot of noise in Runet. A clip was then filmed for the latter. Also, the video was made based on the song "Patriotic".
Having conquered your hometown, Tarasov began in May 2016 a tour throughout Russia with a new album. According to the program, performances are planned in cities not only in Siberia, but also in Central Russia.
Comparison with the Caspian Cargo group
Another street rap group was founded in Azerbaijan and soon became one of the most significant in its genre. The guys began to create at the beginning of the 2000s, but real fame came to them only after they were noticed by the largest Russian-speaking hip-hop artist - Alexei Dolmatov, known under the stage name "Guf" (Guf). The latter offered to shoot a joint video, which became a hit in the Russian music industry.
The main theme of the songs is the life of people who find themselves in a rather difficult life situation, but get out of the trap thanks to perseverance and willpower.
The group consists of two members:
- Anar Zeynalov(also known as "Ves") - he was interested in rap culture from childhood, but was engaged not only in listening to other people's tracks. He studied in detail someone else's manner of performance in order to develop his own style. And his efforts were not in vain - the tracks that he posted on the Internet began to be popular;
- Timur Odilbekov("Brutto") - somewhat younger than his partner. For the time being, his passion for music was limited only by listening to the compositions of popular groups.
The last member of the group - "Brutto" is very similar to the rapper TARAS in his manner of performance. This is noted by fans of both artists. The similarity between the two rappers is so striking that it is often very difficult to blindly determine who performs this or that track. For example, the song "Naked Kaif" was attributed to Brutto for a long time, until Dmitry Tarasov gained a significant army of fans.
Who else bears the pseudonym Taras?
The pseudonym Taras (namely, in the Latin version) belongs not only to the young Krasnoyarsk hip-hop star. Under this name, the recognized master of the genre T-killah , in the world known as Alexander Ivanovich Tarasov. His songs also belong to the rap genre, but he won the love of the audience much earlier - in 2010, after recording the song "Above the Ground".
The very name T-killah (“tee-killa”) is an allusion to the favorite drink of nightclub patrons - tequila. At the same time, the word killah in colloquial English is a truncated version of killer, that is, "murderer". The idea to take such a pseudonym was thrown to Alexander by his beloved girl, whom he met during his school years.
Alexander actively spoke on television - on Channel One and on TNT, thanks to which he became known to the mass audience.
The portfolio of the Moscow rapper Taras includes a couple of albums:
- Boom ("Boom") - recorded in 2013;
- "Puzzles" - came out two years later.
So, now you know that as many as two performers are known under the name Taras rapper. Who it is depends on how the creative pseudonym is written. If you type the name in capital letters - TARAS - then we will talk about a young Krasnoyarsk star. If the name is written in lowercase letters (Taras), then, most likely, one of the nicknames of the singer T-killah is meant.
