Pharaoh: “I want to record an album that will be heard in 50 years”
"I don't like to give interviews, because they ask about the celebrities I work with, not about me. Like they came to find out something about me, and they ask questions like "How much does Face earn?" I am very worried about this, " - with this statement, our conversation with Shulya began.

DECEMBER 21, 2018, Mnogoznaal, THE-FLOW
Mnogoznaal is the author of the album "Гостиница Космос" ["The hotel Cosmos"], which is recognized as one of the most significant rap albums of 2018. Despite this, Maxim remains one of the unsolved figures in Russian rap.
Mnogoznaal and Visnu — about the clip "Гостиница Космос" ["The hotel Cosmos"], the altercation with Kizaru and the collaboration with the Ёлка.
Recently Mnogoznaal released a video for one of its main tracks - "Гостиница Космос" ["The hotel Cosmos"]. Maxim looked into our Studio together with producer Gosha Visnu to tell us more about this work and plans for 2019.

Tekashi 6ix9ine concert | Interview with PHARAOH | STUDIO 21
6ix9ine is one of the most controversial and unpredictable artists on today's rap scene. His concert at the Moscow club Cition Hall had to be postponed, because on the appointed date (September 7) Tekashi didn't fly out of the States. The show itself also went wrong – during the performance, a fan ran on stage, who hit Tekashi and severely paid for it (read his comment here: http://studio21.ru/tekashi-moscow-con...). The madness that reigns around did not prevent STUDIO 21 presenter Sam from finding out who came to the 6ix9ine Moscow concert and interviewing Pharaoh.

MAY 23, 2018, Mnogoznaal, ВПИСКА
"The list" made it to the homeland of Megasyana – Pechory, a small Northern town, where the sidewalks are five-meter snow drifts, and in the streets go bears (!!!). We study the empty hotel "cosmos", ride on "donuts" from the mountain in minus 30 and are horrified by the deer carcasses at the local market. As always, there are many stories waiting for you. What's cool about Pharaoh? Why did Maxim quarrel with Kizaru? Why was 11-year-old Mnogoznaal beaten by a neighbor? And what did Max remember about working as a janitor and serving in the army?
YOUR SPACE KNEW TOO MUCH. [Mnogoznaal in Russian translation: mnogo-many, znaal-knew]. Northern temper in the rap industry.
A young performer and beatmaker from Pechora, Maxim Lazin, better known as Mnogoznaal, released a new album "Гостиница Космос" ["The hotel Cosmos"] in January this year. A member of the musical group Dead Dynasty immediately got into the top rap artists iTunes, striking listeners with mystery and philosophical ambiguity. The Cosmos hotel is a real place in Komi — a bus stop, which in Maxim's view has always been something mysterious and"creep".
"My girlfriend prompts me how to play sets": interview with Southgarden.
We had the idea to talk to Oleg a long time ago. Initially, the call was a little political, it can be outlined as "Ukrainian from a party called YungRussia". Later, Southgarden released an excellent solo debut, which confirmed him in the status of the main investigator of the advanced team Pharaoh, and then YungRussia itself didn't become. But that didn't make it any less of a topic of conversation.
