A new administrative case has been opened against Morgenshtern, the rapper who is designated as a foreign agent in Russia, for violations of the law governing foreign agents. Life reports this development with the following detail: a court order or notification has been issued.
According to the publication, Morgenshtern faces a fine of 300,000 rubles for eight Telegram posts. One of those messages allegedly promoted obtaining a military ID without performing military service. Life notes that the rapper later added a hashtag to the post, which may have drawn additional scrutiny from authorities and the public alike.
Earlier, the musician was already facing penalties and had been fined for the third time. The administrative protocol cites Part 4 of Article 19.34 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, concerning the production of materials and their distribution without labeling by a foreign representative. The potential penalty ranges from 30,000 to 50,000 rubles, and observers expect further actions as the case proceeds.
At the end of November, reports indicated that Morgenshtern announced the closure of his label within Russia. Bugatti Music, established in Dubai in 2022, marked a notable shift in the artist’s business footprint. The label’s debut album achieved platinum status, and during its first year, the project roster released more than twenty tracks featuring artists such as ARUT, Morgenshtern himself, Talia, Entype, Big Baby Tape, The Limba, and Eldzhey.
Previously, there was discussion about earnings and market activity, including how much Meladze could earn in Russia in 2023. The ongoing narrative around Morgenshtern illustrates the broader interplay between artistic activity, regulatory action, and brand strategy in the contemporary Russian music industry, as covered by Life and other outlets.
