History of the best Russian Hip-hop and Rap band!!!
“Malchishnik”: NON-STOP!
The band was founded in the beginning of 1990s. The members of the band became acquainted in Arbat street – they were keen on “street” culture: break-dance, rap, the guys arranged street performances and competitions. At that time no one could think of setting rap, which was so popular in the North America because of its hard-edged texts about sex, in Russia. The subject itself was under control of TV and radio censorship. “Maltshishnik” shocked everyone. Some weeks later the sex-tornado made crazy the whole Russia of the “transition period”. First recordings, ceaseless concert tours, popularity, censorship and, finally, underground.
Nowadays the band (maybe temporarily) has stopped producing new songs and appear on stage only on request. Dan and Mutabor have found themselves in deejaying. Mutabor has also his own dance project – Paltus Mutantus.
“Malchishnik” still has no rivals – the attempts of some rappers to tell about “the harsh truth of life” can be easily excluded for their thick amateurishness and blunt lack of talent. Ironic “Discoteka Avaria”, affecting Detsl, bombastic Vlad Valov and depressing Dolphin are pretty good in their genres, but they work in other direction, that’s why “Malchishnik” is the only band, which touches the feelings “below the belt”. Although there is a lot of cynicism in their work and even some extremism, which is peculiar to youths, their songs are about life, about situations, which can happen to everybody, and above all they often touch more than most subtle and deep emotions.
