By the way, the rapper under the pseudonym Ernesto Shut Up (real name Dmitry Romashchenko) read about this period of his life when he battled with Gnoyny on the project “Versus vs. #SLOVOSPB” in the summer of 2016. Ernesto Shut Up in one of his rounds told the audience that at the age of fifteen, Purulent from a sneaker, when he was initiated into punks.

For a long time, the public believed in this story, but later Gnoyny (see photo of the rapper below) denied this information.

Rapper Gnoyny: interesting facts from life

In 2007, Vyacheslav graduated from school, after which he entered the Khabarovsk Institute of Infocommunications (KHIIK). Vyacheslav was not an exemplary student.

Having become a computer specialist, he gets a job at a company mobile communications MTS. Here he works as a cellular and Internet service technician, goes to calls, where he lays coaxial wires and configures routers. Later the guy got a job at a water park, where wage was an order of magnitude higher.

At the age of 22, Vyacheslav Mashnov became acquainted with the work of rap artist Sasha Skul from the Buchenwald Flave association. The guy also listens to tracks from groups such as “Lenina Package”, “Babangida”, “4 Positions of Bruno” and “Auktsion”. Hip hop music has big influence on it, and soon Slava begins to record his own tracks. Over the years, the guy hones his technique and improves his style. At the same time, some creative pseudonyms were born.

Beginning of a career: battles and popularity

In 2013, the aspiring rapper Gnoyny, whose biography was not yet known to a wide circle of people, released an album called Pih-poh. The album had only 4 tracks: “Pih-poh”, “Drip”, “I love you” and “ Old image" Very soon a joint EP album with rapper Smesharique will be released - “Jar of Indigestion”, containing 6 tracks.

In the same year, Vyacheslav is selected to participate in the debut season of St. Petersburg. Here he is replete with his own, for which he increases his audience. It is worth noting that Gnoyny “removed” all his opponents without special difficulties. In the final confrontation, Dan Cheney, the future organizer of the #SLOVOSPB project, won.

VERSUS X #SLOVOSPB: battle against Oksimiron

In the summer of 2016, when SLAVA KPSS battled with Ernesto Shut Up (on “Versus vs. #SLOVOSPB”), in one of his rounds he dedicated several lines to rapper Oksimiron, who is considered the number one figure in this culture. Gnoyny expressed a lot of negativity towards Miron Fedorov, and the crowd supported his punches with loud shouts and applause. In his punches, he called Oksimiron a “hype-hungry pig” who is capable of overstepping his principles and morals for the sake of money and popularity. With the same words, Gnoyny insulted all fans of the country’s titular rapper, allegedly their consciousness is too one-sided. In general, a lot of bile was spilled. After this battle, which was won by SLAVA CPSU, Oksimiron wrote a post on his Twitter saying that he was challenging him to a battle in 2017. Gnoyny’s response was almost immediate, the rapper happily agreed to this battle.

"Battle of the Year"

After it became known that the battle between Oxy and Slava would take place, many public pages and Internet portals began to full of headlines about the upcoming event. Whole year Vyacheslav delighted the audience with his EP tracks, in which he ridiculed and teased Oksimiron in every possible way. However, Gnoyny’s behavior pattern did not change after the challenge to the battle and was predictable. The upcoming event soon acquired the status of “the most anticipated of the year.”

In August 2017, the long-awaited battle took place. A battle of eyes, rhymes and punches. Everything is the same as always. The intrigue over this confrontation remained until the last minutes.

VERSUS X #SLOVOSPB 2017: first round

In the first round, Oxy explains to Gnoyny that his experience in the rap environment is too low, and that it is not the level for him. Oksimiron states that if it weren’t for his post calling for a battle, no one would have known about Gnoiny. Here Miron Fedorov ridicules the “battle on facts” format, playing a little story about how Mashnov was on vacation in Thailand and was caught having a sexual relationship with a transvestite.

Gnoyny's answer begins with the fact that Oxy suffers from graphomania, and that his last album doesn't deserve much respect. Slava also accuses his counterpart of plagiarism regarding the same album “Gorgorod” and some stylistic line in the tracks, like those of Brodsky and Yesenin (Sesenin in the battle). It also says that Fedorov takes advantage of his status as “the best rapper in Rus'” and pushes a pseudo-abstruse meaning to listeners. He emphasizes that Oksimiron has turned into a “snickering” MC.

VERSUS X #SLOVOSPB 2017: second round

According to many, Oksimiron's second round is the strongest in the history of Russian battles. The rapper's introduction begins with a flip (a response to the opponent's words, which was invented on the fly), which says that the first round of Slava is a retelling of the track “Who have you become?” After this, Fedorov describes the worthlessness and cheapness of the #SLOVOSPB project, accusing their creators of fraud regarding the rights to the project. Miron also talks about the declining level of his platform, allegedly Versus has turned into a commercial project where they make money and spit on hip-hop culture. Further, Fedorov develops the meaning of his flip - he says that Gnoyny is Oksimiron in his youth, but as a meaningless parody. The round ends with a quote from the poem “The Word” by St. Petersburg poet Nikolai Gumilyov.

Gnoyny dedicated his second round to the fact that there are almost no cool punches in Oxy’s battles, and that he has nothing to say against his poisonous and immoral attacks. Here Slava incriminates Myron in some of his “shits” (shames, contradictions). The round turned out to be quite strong. There were a lot of hard punches that got the crowd going. After this round, the audience began to smell the victory of the GLORY OF THE CPSU.

VERSUS X #SLOVOSPB 2017: third round

He emphasized that the third rounds for rappers are always the toughest and most accurate, with a lot of dirt and facts. But contrary to this canon, he said: “Let’s just talk about books.” Oxy began to reveal the meaning of everything fiction that in every work there is a hero and an anti-hero. Miron read that anti-heroes are created only to extol the hero, because they do not have their own history (hints at the personality of Gnoyny). With this retelling of the book “The Hero with a Thousand Faces” (Joseph Campbell), Fedorov hints that Gnoyny is only a kind of “level in the game” on the way to the main boss, that is, to the rapper Disaster ( Oksimiron's battle with Dizaster will take place on October 15, 2017).

The third round of Purulent differs from the rest only in that it contained even more nasty and poisonous punchlines towards the opponent with an admixture of real facts from his life. Here he says that this whole battle is for the sake of “getting off Miron” (literally - “I’m just getting off on you”) and calls his opponent a “bald dwarf” (rapper Gnoyny’s height is small). The round ends with a signature punch from the last battle with Ernesto: “I’d rather die as a no-name than become famous and become you.”

Personal life

Rapper Gnoyny for a long time(about 3 years old) was in a relationship with a girl whose nickname was Sasha Disco, she worked as a photographer. In 2017, in an interview with Dudya, Vyacheslav said that he broke up with her. Mashnov mentioned the same thing in the battle with Oksimiron. Despite the popularity that has come, the biography of the rapper Gnoyny remains little known. Currently, nothing is known about his personal life.
