The Baku rap group “Caspian Cargo,” which includes Timur Odilbekov and Anar Zeynalov, is confidently conquering the Russian-language scene. These two guys from Azerbaijan independently mastered musical art and are in no way inferior to the coolest professionals. Their performances have their own unique style and are becoming increasingly popular among modern youth. 32-year-old Timur is six months younger than his friend in the rap duo and has the original pseudonym Brutto. According to fans and volunteer “chroniclers” of the group, Brutto is married and has two children. Timur Odilbekova's wife bears the mysterious pseudonym Als Veshkah and accompanies him on tour.
The rap duo “Caspian Cargo” appeared in 2000, 16 years ago. Someday they will definitely write about his past and present on Wikipedia and report in detail all the dates of the appearance of new songs and travel routes. Currently, fans have to be content with fragmentary information about the lives of their idols from press reports and the Internet. Considerable credit for this belongs to the charming Als Veshkah, who on her VK page very often posts photographs about the movements of Brutto and his colleague under the middle name Ves, and short information.
At one of his performances in Kirov, Brutt took the opportunity to congratulate his “soul mate” on the next anniversary of their relationship, said that for him she was the ideal woman and was very worried that he would embarrass his beloved by talking about her in front of such a large audience. “It contains everything positive traits women,” the artist announced from the stage, and this is very expensive from the lips of an Azerbaijani man.
Judging by how freely his wife feels on the Internet and in front of the camera, these spouses have reached full agreement on the role of the beautiful Als Veshkah in their family relationships. Everything that is allowed to a wife in a Muslim family depends entirely on good will her husband and Timur’s “European” point of view on marriage cannot but rejoice. It is clear from everything that he is devoted and loving husband, confident in the prudence and fidelity of his wife, and also wants to see her free and happy, with the opportunity to express herself.
Als Veshkah, in a relaxed and friendly manner, shares information on VK with fans (and female fans) of the group about their movements around the country, concerts, plans for the future, and often films what is happening so that you can see from the photographs how fun and healthy everything is going for them.
It seems that they really have everything in order: relationships, rest and work. It's a shame that there are no children in any of the photographs: one of Brutto's friends said that he not only wonderful husband, but also a caring father of two children.
There is no doubt that Timur Odilbekov’s wife fully shares his creative views and aspirations. Such unity in family life rare and reflects well on professional activity. One of the greats said that love exists not when lovers look at each other, but when they look in the same direction.
“Caspian Cargo” is currently the most successful rap duo in Russian stage, however, the group members come from sunny Azerbaijan, and by nationality they are representatives of the indigenous majority of this country. Their first and last names clearly indicate that they are Azerbaijanis, however, this in no way prevents them from understanding the Russian (Russian-speaking) viewer and finding full contact with him.
BIOGRAPHY OF ANAR ZEYNALOV (VES) – PARTICIPANT OF THE CASPIAN CARGO GROUP
Anar Zeynalov, stage name Ves, was born in beautiful Baku on October 5, 1983, when the city was in full swing Golden autumn. Perhaps the boy observed the changing beauty ancient city, perhaps, like all boys, he did not pay attention to artistic beauties. But, undoubtedly, love for art, even youth, underground, lived in him.
Otherwise, why would he become interested in hip-hop and not just downloading his favorite records and videos, but his own performance. First for myself and friends, gradually expanding my audience. He posted some of his videos on YouTube, and now numerous fans have a unique opportunity to evaluate their idol from the point of view of “before” and “after.”
BIOGRAPHY OF TIMUR ODILBEKOV (GROSS) – PARTICIPANT OF THE CASPIAN CARGO GROUP
Real fame found its hero when he appeared on stage as part of a duet in the company of Timur Odilbekov, now known under the name Brutto. Timur’s birthplace was the same sunny Baku, freely spread out on the shores of the legendary Caspian Sea. Only he was born on May 19, 1984, six months younger than his “brother” in the group.
Finding out which place is small homeland these young but early performers become clear name groups and the origin of their stage names (I don’t dare write, nicknames, nicknames and the like) is now quite understandable.
CAREER OF THE CASPIAN CARGO GROUP
The musical road is so young talents was not much different from the rise to the top of the hip-hop parades of their so-called colleagues in the shop. Joint creative searches began in the 2000s; the musicians themselves now note them as early and unprofessional. There was no trace of a rapper school in Baku, so there was no one to study with. The non-professional studio became the birthplace of the first tracks. But even such recordings, made generally amateurishly, could not go unnoticed recognized leaders rap music. And the first one who paid attention to the “new kids” was Guf, who proposed to perform a song together and shoot a video. Fresh voices, charismatic guys who have their own principles - this is how the heroes of the video Ves and Brutto appeared. Someone immediately elevated the “Caspian Cargo” duet to the banners of Russian rap, someone began to be indignant and criticize the guys in all posts and comments. Undoubtedly, the music and lyrics touched a nerve, the guys spoke to young people in their language, touched on their problems and topics, tried to look for answers to the same questions that everyone who has said goodbye to childhood, but has not yet found refuge in the adult world, is looking for.
In addition, the first clip, filmed in company with Guf, made it clear that the guys were not from the street or from the gateway. They have heavy artillery in their arsenal in the form of Russian classical literature. The track “Everything for One Dollar” uses monologues and phrases from the novel by Alexander Solzhenitsyn, the great Russian dissident who received Nobel Prize. Remains open question, whether the guys read the novel, or carefully watched the series of the same name “In the First Circle”, but it doesn’t matter. Another thing is important, it is the favorite group that can push fans to internal development, reading (viewing) the best examples of world literature (culture). Following the first joint song (which today's rappers call fit), there are the next ones, where the Baku guys are accompanied by mega-popular hip-hop performers in Russia, including Slim, Tipsy Tip, Khatyn and others.
The guys, who reveal themselves so sincerely in their lyrics and performance, are actually reserved like men and are in no hurry to tell everyone about their lives and personal problems. There is very little information about them both in the press and on the vast expanses of the Internet; it is even more difficult to find out what is written is true, what is fiction of the heroes, what has been thought up by loyal fans. So, based on their texts, permeated with thieves’ romance, many believe that the guys, at least one of them, Brutto, had problems with the law. Some online sources report that, being a minor, he served time at one time. Currently, Timur is a wonderful husband and father of two children; he would hardly want his heirs to know about his father’s not very pleasant past. Ves, according to the same authors, was not seen in anything such reprehensible, although his texts are on the verge of legality and crime. Tattoos that could tell about former life no guys in sight.
Life on the edge, reflected in the lyrics, is only one of the problems raised by the guys in their work. They are not young boys, not teenagers. These are adults, already formed characters, who have every right express your thoughts about global problems, which everyone faces individually, perhaps suggesting a way out.
From latest achievements- track “Silence”, a joint project, in which the group “Caspian Cargo” and Liman, a rap artist from Yekaterinburg, took part. The rapper on his page in social network thanked everyone who took part in the recording; naturally, the first words of gratitude were received by Brutto and Ves. Their work, namely the composition “When you get there, write,” was presented on one of the Internet portals in the twenty best hip-hop tracks of 2014; in the comments, listeners rated it as “the harshest men’s song.” The same hit is seen in the list of 50 best songs of the year. In one of the interviews dedicated to the main results of the past 2014, the guys answered many questions and showed remarkable knowledge various areas politics, economics and cultural life not only Russia, but the entire planet. The most interesting and touching were the answers to the question about the act of the year. Ves answered philosophically that the main thing for him was to remain human. For Brutto, the most difficult thing was to congratulate his soulmate on the next anniversary of their relationship. Moreover, he decided to do it publicly, from the stage, during one of his performances. He admitted that he was very worried, which is why he was confused in his words, and tenderly noted that his beloved did not expect such an act from him, and therefore was very embarrassed.
IN this material The group “Caspian Cargo” will be presented. The biography of this group, as well as the features of creativity, are discussed below. This group came to Russia from the East, or more precisely, its homeland is Azerbaijan.
Weight
So, before us is the duet “Caspian Cargo”. The biography of Anar Zeynalov will be discussed further. It's about about the first of two participants. Ves is a stage name this musician. He was born in the capital of Azerbaijan. It happened in 1983, October 5th. Art attracted the young man from a young age. He is in early age contacted the youth underground. It was at this time that his talent began to emerge. He studied the works modern musicians. Soon he began to rap on his own.
Gross
There is also a second participant in the “Caspian Cargo” group. His biography is no less interesting. The musician's name is Timur Odilbekov. Stage name- Gross. He was born in Baku in 1984. The guy also became interested in music at an early age. From listening to other people's work, he came to performing his own compositions.
“Caspian Cargo”: biography of the group
We have already talked above about how we started our creative activity members of the team, but they managed to gain wide popularity only after uniting into one team. The group followed the path of many young musical projects. Performers first began to actively express themselves in 2000. Today they call this period early, unprofessional attempts to gain success.
There was no professional rap school or similar institution in hometown our heroes. Therefore, they studied this art on their own. The first recordings were created in home studios. However, even these experiments can be considered success. Soon the duo received an offer to perform a song and record a video from a representative of this direction - rapper Guf. He heard the band's compositions by accident. It was this clip with Guf that allowed Russian viewers and listeners get to know Azerbaijani guys. From this work we can judge that our heroes have their own ideas about life, have some knowledge, in particular, they are familiar with part of Russian classical literature. In particular, in the song “Everything for One Dollar,” the rappers used excerpts from the book by Alexander Solzhenitsyn.
Now you know more about the Caspian Cargo group. The biography of the participants, as well as the features of creativity, were discussed above.
To hell with the review, I suggest an experiment: play a song for your girlfriend debut album Caspian Cargo, and then “Mademoiselle” from the just released “Soundtrack to never filmed". Ask which group she liked best. Explain that they were recorded by the same people. Describe your reaction in the comments below.
Over the 5 years of their extremely prolific existence, the duo from Baku has become one of the most popular groups genre. Everyday witty writers with recognizable style, who were first noticed by serious men in serious tinted cars, and then by their companions. It seemed that with each release the circle of listeners was expanding, but after two solo works, which aroused fears in the hearts of fans about a possible split within the team, information followed that the new record for Caspian Gruz would be a farewell one. As a result, this freed artists from the need to live up to the expectations of their fan base and simply gave them carte blanche to experiment. As we have already seen, the old listener of the duet did not understand and did not accept them.
Gross, produced most Of course, there was a lot of material: moombahton, new R&B, minimal trap, old school boombap - it’s all there. To justify the genre diversity, a concept was invented that supposedly this album is music for a non-existent crime drama. Well, just like in Scorsese, when one of the heroes comes to their former companions and offers to do one last thing. There is also something like a script, where it is written which song corresponds to which episode ("childhood of the heroes", "prison. rethinking", etc.). You might not even guess about such a concept if you didn’t read an interview or a press release, but the plot, albeit very general outline, appears.
The sound was updated, but the hero of the Caspian Cargo remained the same: not the most law-abiding resident of the latitudes once described by the group as “Ognestrelsky district, Shmalyaevo village.” The duo wrote dozens of songs about the world of people who “harvest their harvest by threatening”, about their fears and hopes - and still manage to find new approaches, new solutions, new dramas. I just thought that part of the unfounded hate towards the work of Caspian Cargo always stemmed from the fact that their hero is not at all fashionable, rather straight out of three-kopeck NTV crime series. Part of Brutto’s verse from the song “Heroes of Our Time” seems to be a metaphor, a play on it. With the current sound, this is no longer so noticeable.
The masterpiece punchlines have not disappeared anywhere; this fountain is still inexhaustible. If you choose your favorite, then Ves has this “With a scarecrow behind his back, like Pugachev’s plywood / Unprofessional, Vasya, but it seems like the show was a success,” but with Brutto: “We don’t hang, we hang by a thread like a churchkhela / My house between hell and heaven, I call it church-hella." The last one is my favorite for Line of the Year.
The group’s repertoire always included touching, tear-jerking pieces like “When you get there, write,” “City of Brides,” or “Childhood.” Now “Warms” is added to them, the first verse of which is a real movie conveying smells and halftones, and Ves’s verse is a witty finishing touch that closes the theme. This song shows better than others that they can still sound great together, but as the release progresses, the thought persists that as musicians they are already interested in completely different things. Ves is natural in the role of a prickly element who does not reach into his pocket for a harsh word, and Brutto is, on the contrary, a romantic who knows how and strives to evoke sympathy and understanding in the listener.
Caspian Cargo is now a duet of people looking in different directions.
Therefore, in a sense, I am even glad that the group I revered is leaving. They love to tell stories, and in stories, a beautiful ending is extremely important, which we are not spoiled with by rap groups, in their declining years, as a rule, turning into parodies of themselves or, even worse, rivals on Versus, casting a shadow on their own achievements and bright memory.
ABOUT solo projects Brutto and Ves do not even stutter yet, but who would believe that artists of their caliber and creative form can they just leave like that? And then, who knows, maybe a reunion will happen. I'm sure even the haters would like this. You know how it happens - well, just like Scorsese. When one of the heroes comes to a former companion and offers to do one last thing.
It's no secret that the team " Caspian Cargo" ceases to exist. After not the longest, but successful career, the band members achieved a lot, gained a lot of fans, but the minuses turned out to be more significant than the pluses. published on October 6 next issue programs " Russian rap in first person", the main character of which was Gross, and during the conversation the artist spoke about the group’s farewell tour" Caspian Cargo", about the breakup of the team and who initiated it, as well as about songwriting.
"Caspian Cargo"It's really falling apart. Gross confirmed this information. The rapper emphasized that the group will not reunite, as many teams are doing now. According to the artist, the decision has been made final. The initiator of the idea - Gross. The reason is a decline in popularity. According to the performer, leaving the game should be just as beautiful as breaking in. The musician noted that the peak of the band’s popularity was two years ago. This is noticeable in the comments of listeners, the number of concert visitors and the reaction of the media. Now, according to the rapper, the situation is not changing for the better.
Gross believes that an artist or group should always be relevant. In his opinion, the creativity of the team " Caspian Cargo"is no longer perceived in the same way by listeners. The rapper does not hide the fact that the main theme of the team is criminal. However, according to the performer, it is no longer interesting to listeners as before. The rapper does not want to look funny with his themes compared to his more relevant colleagues. Partner Weight fully supported him on this issue.
"Caspian Cargo"has planned a large farewell concert tour, during which the group will visit many cities with a considerable number of tracks. On this creative page team will close forever. There is no need to wait for a team reunion.
Talking about myself Gross noted that he was unable to adapt to the trend. The rapper writes about the same characters for a long time, changing their stories. The artist likes what he composes, but he sees that it is no longer perceived so well by people, and the performer does not know how to write about what is fashionable.
