The 19-year-old rapper known as Unki, whose real name is Timofey Dolgov, faced a sudden cancellation of his concert in Cherepovets after authorities stepped in. Local media reported the decision, noting that the interruption came as officials reviewed concerns raised by residents and guardians about the event.
The controversy centered on the artist’s lyrics, which included explicit language and references to illegal substances. Parents and community members who had planned to attend the show voiced serious worries about the impact on young fans. In response to these complaints, representatives from the Cherepovets Department of Cultural Affairs announced that the concert would be cancelled to prevent potential harm to minors.
The mayoral office issued an official statement underscoring a firm stance against profanity and drug promotion among young audiences. City leaders met with the event organizers, urging a revision of the concert format or a postponement until the content meets community standards. The administration indicated openness to permitting the performance at a later date, provided that songs with objectionable lyrics were removed from the lineup.
Meanwhile, in Nizhny Novgorod, doubts emerged about the security of a planned performance by the rapper Kishlak, signaling potential trouble or disruption to the schedule and raising questions about the viability of the event as planned.
In a separate moment, Anastasia Volochkova commented publicly on the recent scandal surrounding the performance by Glucose, adding to the ongoing discussion about entertainment events and their alignment with community expectations and parental concerns.
