In a tale that blends crime lore with the music world, the figure known as Sasha Sever, described by some as a thief in law, is linked to the dedication of the song Vladimir Central. Reports claim that Sever took steps that amounted to a kind of rebirth for Mikhail Krug, reshaping how the late singer was presented to the public. Life magazine notes this event and ties it to broader rumors circulating in both crime and music circles. The account mentions a reference from SHOT in support of the claim.
According to the publication, North shifted away from criminal matters and began promoting a young singer named Maxim Dorokhin in 2022. He believes Dorokhin’s voice closely resembles Krug’s vocal tone, a comparison that has drawn interest from fans and industry observers. Dorokhin hails from Zhukov, a town in the Kaluga region, an area with its own regional artistic traditions.
To realize the project, the team traveled to the city of Tver to record at the Salam studio, a facility known for handling turnkey projects in music production. The price tag for producing and finalizing a song there is reported at 100 thousand rubles, a figure that covers studio time, arrangement, and mastering under one package. The process unfolds with engineers, producers, and vocalists collaborating to capture a sound that echoes Krug while standing on its own.
From a separate report by SHOT, Kuzey’s financial obligations are noted. He is alleged to owe 40 thousand rubles to the tax authorities, a detail that feeds into the ongoing chatter surrounding his finances and obligations.
Sever met Krug while the singer was detained at Vladimir Central Prison. The encounter contributed to Krug later dedicating a song to Sever, strengthening the public association between the two men. In July 2002, Krug passed away, a milestone that has continued to shape discussions about his career and the people connected to it.
On April 14, Mash Telegram channel reported that Irina, Krug’s widow, had increased her performance fee threefold. The publication suggested that corporate events are often arranged by crime bosses, businessmen, and close friends of Krug, contributing to the singer’s posthumous business presence.
Krug’s son Alexander is said to have doubled his own fee as well, with performances priced around 400 thousand rubles. The family’s repertoire reportedly includes five of Krug’s hits alongside original material, signaling an ongoing expansion of the musical legacy they carry forward.
Earlier reports mention Bianca overcoming mental health problems in a forest setting, a detail that adds another layer to the personal histories often mentioned in discussions about the Krug circle and its connections.
