Zemfira Ramazanova is the main princess of mild rock in Russia. Her songs are usually melancholic, and in this music video closer to the end Zemfira appears in a room, that looks like coffin inside. Very encouraging.

TT-34 - Boom

Browsing internet, i’ve met yesterday the music video of TT-34 “Boom” for the first time (it was at the rotation on MTV, but i don’t watch TV) and i was shocked. The video reel, made by Roman Vasianov, is stunning and the song is catching also. That was the first time for the last 2 years, when i got emotional orgasm after listening to the song.
The rap guy is Belorussian rapper Seryoga, and he tells the story about the proletarian guy, who was returning home from the plant with the salary he got this day, and met the bunch of gangsters, who were going to rob him. So that’s how the fight started. The rough translation of refrain is: Boom! What a luck! Boom! Black eye! Boom! Evil destiny! Boom! Hello, native Motherland!
