Overview of a Moscow Concert Incident and the Artist Background
Reports from late February described an incident at a Moscow concert involving rapper Shiny, born Nikita Polyakov. A concert-goer, a female student, was hospitalized with a traumatic brain injury after a bottle reportedly flew toward her during the event. The organizer stated that documents confirming the injury were requested from the injured party, but were not provided, and security footage appeared not to show any clear event. According to the organizer, the artist had already left the site before the incident and what occurred seemed more like a staged demonstration than a real injury.
In another account, Life with link to 26 February Shot Telegram channel claimed that a 14-year-old student was admitted to hospital following the concert on February 24. The report suggested a bottle thrown into the auditorium by a DJ struck the student, resulting in a broken nose and glasses and a reported headache. It was allegedly noted that concert organizers provided police with evidence that no bottle was thrown. The student’s family later spoke with the police.

Regarding the artist’s career, Nikita Polyakov began his journey in 2019 as a member of the group Slatthud. He departed from the group a year later and collaborated on the track “Kash Routine” with blogger Uglystephan in 2021. His later release, “yeyo!” arrived in 2022, and Polyakov gained greater recognition after releasing his breakout single. He has since issued two albums.

A separate remark from a former manager of a Nizhny Novgorod club referenced a disruption at a Distemper ska band concert, suggesting that the broader context of event disturbances was under discussion in the local music scene. (Source: former club manager statements and regional coverage.)
