Oksimiron purulent battle 1 channel. The rap battle Oxxxymiron vs Gnoyny became one of the most discussed events of August
One of the most discussed events in August is the rap battle between Miron Fedorov and Vyacheslav Mashnov. They are better known in their circles as Oxxxymiron (Oksimiron) and Slava KPSS, aka Gnoyny. These are their nicknames. This battle has already been watched by 22 million people on the Internet.
Not everyone knows what a battle is. This is when two rappers stand opposite each other and begin to take turns insulting their opponent. They do it in poetry. This is a poetry tournament. In general, rap is the culture of the black outskirts of American cities. This is black art. Although there are also white ones. The most famous and richest one is white – Eminem.
Famous rappers do their job with amazing skill. Ours are not so skillful, but there is a serious difference: if American battles are primarily swearing and personal insults, then ours are trying to argue about something important. This is typical of Russian culture. Don't feed us bread, let us talk about the meaning of life.
Battle Oxxxymiron vs Glory of the CPSU is a dispute about the primacy of culture. What is more important - success, well-being, money or creation itself, creativity, personality? And so, in street language, they discuss fundamental philosophical problems. They refer to the classics, they quote great poets. True, in battles they swear and swear a lot. Therefore, if your ears are offended by obscene language, battles are not for you. You will only be disappointed and upset. You will say: what kind of philosophy is there - sheer swearing.
Oxxxymiron is the most successful Russian rapper. He gathers large audiences and earns good money. And here is the main blow of the Glory of the CPSU, he reproaches his opponent: you are secondary, you have not come up with anything new, you are just a cunning person who has learned to make money. And this is so Russian.
Some believe that Russian rap has replaced Russian rock, which dominated the minds of young people in the 80s and 90s. Then Russian rock weakened. Has lost its relevance. And here is a new phenomenon - Russian rap.
The general public didn't even know that such a genre existed. But Russian battle rap suddenly reached an audience of millions! The funeral had to be postponed. A verbal duel without moral restrictions turned out to be the most discussed show on the Russian Internet.
Oxxxymiron: I'm battling a shell-shocked, wildly dull little guy. And obscene language is the pearl of the great Russian language. OK?
Psychologists are now discussing all this in all seriousness. “Millions watch these battles primarily because of emotions,” analyzes one of them.
The inhabitants are trying to understand the intrigue of the fight. “It’s cool, he’s a great guy,” notes another viewer.
Before the Barcelona-Real Madrid football match, the sports commentator was clearly jealous of the success of another show.
“Not many events can outshine the rap battle between Oksimiron and Gnoiny, but I still hope that the Spanish clasico...” - sports commentator Georgy Cherdantsev began with these words.
So who are these heroes who have temporarily eclipsed Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi?
“This is an urgent appeal to the subscribers of my channel. To my boys,” begins the statement on the YouTube channel Glory to the CPSU.
The guy in the green cap is Slava. Lives in St. Petersburg, until recently he worked as a system administrator. Appeared on the Internet under different names:
Hello, Sonya Marmeladova is here
Hello, this is Valentin Dyadka
Then he began to call himself Purulent and Glory to the CPSU. I recorded a cooking show about glazed cheese curds.
He gave drawing lessons. And, of course, he rapped. But few people appreciated this talented amateur performance.
Another rapper is Oxxxymiron (Oksimiron). He studied at Oxford and returned to Russia to develop rap culture. I recorded albums and made money. And he was considered the king of Russian rap. The heroes - just like in the novel - hated each other and decided to duel. We prepared for it for almost a year.
Glory to the CPSU: And I’m bringing you the revolution like old times on the road from Tushino. This cart has rotating axles. The futurists threw Pushkin off the ship of modernity. And you still clung to Oxxxy. After all, he's alive!!
Oxxxymiron: You are funny, too long, frankly awkward. You have the physique of a pregnant heron. Out of proportion to your hype. And your contribution to rap is not a cloud in your pants.
In these texts, teenage and prison slang are mixed in verses with quotes from Russian classics.
Oxxxymiron: My dead homey - a.k.a Nikolay Gumilyov. Here's about you: When God bowed his face over the new world, then the sun was stopped with a word.
Glory to the CPSU: “A thin shoulder print”, teachers - that’s a disgrace. Pasternak couldn’t have done this - it’s simply ignorant!
And how, according to the laws of drama, the young rapper won this battle with a score of 5:0.
Glory to the CPSU: “I’d rather die with a *** noname than become famous and become you”
“And this phrase “I’d rather die with such and such a noname than become famous and become you,” it became the key one in the battle. That is, at that moment he simply took it apart. He dismantled all his arrogance, he dismantled his show-off. Because there is no falsehood in battles,” says blogger Nikolai Sobolev.
But music market experts noted that a much more significant event took place these days. Russian rap ideologically defeated rock as the main youth culture.
“Rap has replaced rock, it turns out that the rockers are respectable, fluffy, littered with a bunch of equipment, and the rapper bought a card for the computer for 500, and battles - the language of the streets - poured into these millions of YouTube views,” notes the director of a PR agency, music journalist, media producer Alexander Kushnir.
Today's rockers no longer lead the youth and express their ideas, as they did in the 80s and 90s. There is still power in truth. And now the rappers have the truth.
If the film “Brother” was filmed today, then, most likely, Danila Bagrov’s player would have a recitative sound as the main motive of the generation.
“Russia is a nation with a very high tradition of Russian poetry, Russian poetic culture, lyrics, and therefore, when we quote classics at battles, in my opinion, the very formulation of the question is absurd - is it music or not music. This is a new genre that collects millions,” continues Alexander Kushnir.
Oxxxymiron: And let’s say today, maybe you can even kill me. I will continue to travel through stadiums, you will continue to troll me.
The phrase about stadiums is not a figure of speech, but real plans to perform at the Olympic Stadium. In principle, there is no sensation that a musician will fill a stadium. But if we consider the event as a poetic evening, this is already something new. Or a well-forgotten old one. After all, Yevtushenko once performed in this same arena.
The poets of the sixties easily filled stadiums. Andrei Voznesensky, as they would say today, “torn up” Luzhniki.
“And when we go to the stadiums in Tomsk or to the Luzhniki Stadium in Riga, your descendants who understand you are drawn to tomorrow through poetry” (A. Voznesensky).
The famous evenings at the Polytechnic were somewhat reminiscent of a battle ground in their atmosphere. And the duel between Yevtushenko and Voznesensky was shown in the series “Mysterious Passion” based on Aksenov’s novel.
“This is what’s happening to me - my old friend doesn’t come to see me. And he goes somewhere with the wrong people and also understands this.”
Pushkin also exchanged caustic epigrams with his contemporaries. Mayakovsky could argue in verse with his opponents.
Even the British Times wrote about Russian rappers, who in fact also turned out to be poets. The battle has already been watched more than 20 million times. However, resonance cannot be assessed only by clicks on the Internet. For example, Svetlana Loboda’s recent video received almost four times as many views.
And the latest video for Glory of the CPSU is still gaining momentum and has not yet become a hit.

In battles they swear and swear a lot. If your hearing is offended by obscene language, battles are not for you,” the host of “Sunday Time” Valery Fadeev told viewers of Channel One.
Several experts and video blogger Nikolai Sobolev participated in the report. They all came to the general conclusion that rap had replaced rock, which was “now irrelevant.”
According to music journalist Alexander Kushnir, on the day of the battle, Russian rap ideologically defeated rock.
The rockers are respectable, fluffy and littered with a bunch of equipment, and the rapper bought a card for the computer for 500 rubles, and the language of the streets poured into these millions of YouTube views,” said Kushnir.
The battle between Oksimiron and Gnoiny took place on the night of August 14th. Gnoyny won. , at the time of writing this news, the video on YouTube has collected more than 21 million views.
This battle was Oksimiron’s first on the set of Versus, which he lost (0:5). However, according to various estimates, Oksimiron earned up to 10 million rubles from this battle.
Battle recording available on the Versus Battle channel (warning, video contains profanity).
It has been known since the summer of 2016 that a battle between Oksimiron and Gnoiny would take place, when the former responded to the challenge of the latter and promised to “cool the ardor” of his opponent.
Versus Battle is a popular Internet show in which different hip-hop artists compete with each other. In total, the videos on the channel have about 390 million views.
Oxxxymiron and Gnoyny are popular Russian hip-hop artists. The real name of the first is Miron Fedorov. Rapper Gnoyny does not disclose details of his biography.
The final information and analytical program “Sunday Time” on Channel One aired the story “Rock and roll is dead.” Presenter Valery Fadeev and correspondent Ekaterina Kibalchich assessed the impact of the battle between Gnoiny and Oksimiron on the paradigm shift in musical aesthetics in Russia.
At the beginning of the report, Fadeev briefly told the Channel One audience about the history of the emergence of rap battles in the “black neighborhoods of American cities” and the features of the genre. Despite the fact that, according to the presenter, Russian performers cope with the task less skillfully than their American colleagues, there are “serious differences” in the musicians’ performance.
“If American battles are primarily about swearing and personal insults, then ours are trying to argue about something important. This is typical of Russian culture, don’t feed us bread - let us talk about the meaning of life,” Fadeev analyzed the differences.
By the time it aired on Channel One, the video with the battle between Purulent and Oksimiron had received more than 20 million views on YouTube. Fadeev associated the general interest in the confrontation between rappers with a change in the leading musical genre in Russia: if rock had dominated the “minds of youth” since the late 80s of the last century, now it has been replaced by Russian rap.
Channel One correspondent Kibalchich gave a brief biographical description of the rappers: she talked about the stadiums that Oksimiron successfully collects, and also showed where Slava CPSU started: with reviews of glazed cheese curds and video drawing lessons.
The report's experts were blogger Nikolai Sobolev and media producer Alexander Kushnir. They gave their assessment of the battle, and the blogger explained how Gnoyny achieved victory. Kibalchich compared the atmosphere prevailing at the battles with that observed at the poetry evenings of the sixties poets Yevgeny Yevtushenko and Andrei Voznesensky, who gathered entire stadiums.
The video version of the battle between Oksimiron and Gnoyny late in the evening on August 13 and overnight collected more than 3 million views on YouTube. You can watch the reaction of social networks to the fight between Miron and Gnoyny.
First Deputy Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Education and Science Gennady Onishchenko later state media were irresponsible for covering the rap battle between Oksimiron and Gnoyny. The official said that heads of state-funded media outlets must answer for their actions to the relevant structures of the presidential administration. Onishchenko also called for changing legislation in this area and introducing more severe punishment for violators.
We are ready to look you in the eyes on the best day of summer - August 3, at the Afisha Picnic. The Cure, Pusha-T, Basta, Gruppa Skryptonite, Mura Masa, Eighteen - and this is just the beginning.
In the “Sunday Morning” program on Channel One, they talked about the rap battle between Oksimiron and Gnoyny. In just a month, the number of views of this video exceeded 22 million. At the same time, many are still discussing this verbal battle, in which Oksimiron, one of the most talented and popular rappers in the country, lost to Gnoyny.
The host of the program, Valery Fadeev, discussing the battle match, said that rap won over rock.
The Channel One story notes that battles in Russia take place differently from those in the United States. There, participants prefer to humiliate each other using profane language.
Russian rap differs from American rap in that the tradition of Russian poetry is very developed in Russia. Therefore, it is not surprising that at rap battles speakers quote classics, and Oxxxymiron’s upcoming concert at the Olimpiysky will certainly resemble a poetry evening.
On Channel One, the battles of modern rappers were compared with the performances of poets of the sixties.
“The poetry tournament” is originally “the culture of the black outskirts of American cities, it is black art,” explained presenter Valery Fadeev. Unlike American artists, who “do their work amazingly skillfully,” ours are not so skillfully, he continued, but noted that “if American battles are primarily swearing and insults, then ours are trying to argue about something important.” . “Don’t feed us bread, let us talk about the meaning of life,”
the presenter concluded.
He noted that the fight between Gnoyny and Oxxxymiron is “a dispute about the primacy of culture.” The presenter believes that in this way rappers discuss philosophical problems. At the same time, according to Fadeev, Russian rock can be said to have died.
Rap has replaced rock, which dominated the minds of young people in the 80s and 90s. Then Russian rock weakened, lost relevance, and now a new phenomenon is Russian rap,”
noted the presenter of the program.
According to media analyst, professor at the Higher School of Economics and member of the board of directors of Vedomosti Anna Kachkaeva, the rappers who were shown in the evening newscast on Channel One are now “legalized for television millions.” She wrote about this on Facebook.
However, those who are long-time fans of rap do not understand why it is necessary to talk about rap on Channel One. In the comments to the video broadcast, which are mostly obscene, there is a lot of indignation about this. The main reproach is that the presenters do not understand rap and the essence of the topic being discussed.
Did we know when the battle’s hype started that psychologists would discuss it and we’ll watch a cooking show with the stoned Slava on Channel One,” “Where Channel One is heading, the battles are already shown,” “I watched it on the box and facepalmed my forehead. They are trying to talk about something they have never understood. They have lumped rock and rap into one mess,” “What kind of rabid immorality do you have to be to force Bodrov to listen to “Cool My Ardor?” You just need to work on the First", "Now for grannies the main topic of the weekend", "Gnonoy cools Oksimiron's ardor in the Sunday news? Easy, easy, channel 1, in line for the hype -
Internet users write.
