The comedian Semyon Slepakov released the clip “Pobazamim for the culture” on August 24, which he also calls the disce on Sergey Shnurov. In fact, the song is the answer to the song “Leningrad” “I do not want to be a Muscovite”, published a week earlier.
Two clips are also similar to stylistically: in both the musicians sing on boats in Moscow (at Slepakov) and St. Petersburg (near Shnurov). In both clips, instead of a lively sound, a record from the studio was used - this is especially unusual for Slepakov, who usually laid out songs recorded live on Yutube.
Slepakov in “Crazy for Culture” responds to Shnurov’s words that St. Petersburg is better than Moscow: the comedian claims that in the capital creative people are better, citing Sergei Yesenin and Alexander Pushkin as an example:
There are less shocks, which has been proven more than once,
Yesenin wrote poetry here, and hanged himself with you.
And so, Seryog, it happened often. Pushkin, tell me? Well, **** [what]?
The man in Moscow was married, and you had him.
The comedian also accuses Shnurov of corruption - he is sung in the song, rushes to Moscow "for any hack."
It is interesting that in both songs - both Shnurov and Slepakov - are listed by the merits of modern Moscow. For example, both mention the Zaryadye Park, opened in September 2017.
All the good with a tablespoon rowing under itself without looking.
And they certainly lead the bike paths to the Zaryadye park.
If you come to us in the charge, this is not such a drama:
Here in Moscow, you will not believe, there is a cultural program.
And if you suddenly want a lover, there are skates and scooters,
There is sex in Zaryadye, Seryozha, strong with a muscle while you are.
Line in his song also sang about the “Park of Culture and Walks”, according to which he has to walk, the renovation program (“Five-story buildings are broken, in the fashion of the buildings of others”) and the free Wi-Fi in the city, which “*****” [a lot].
In the answer of Slepakov, it is also sung about the parks (“And here we are, bitches, we are building parks - my God, what an abomination”), in which “there are bicycle paths, but you can thump there too.” Having mentioned traffic jams during peak and asphalt hours, which is “put all the time”, the comedian immediately concludes: “But in places - straight Europe.”
The clips of Shnurov and Slepakov came out a few weeks before the one day of the vote on September 9, which will be held including the elections of the Moscow Mayor. In these elections, the current mayor Sergei Sobyanin does not have a single serious opponent.
Earlier, anonymous videos appeared on the Internet, somehow supporting Sobyanin in the elections: in some they talked about his “exploits” and “expensive gifts” in Moscow (in their creation they suspected video blogger Danil of Transverse), in othersthey called for “not put” for the elections. The stars of show business also massively supported Sobyanin in their social networks at the end of May 2018-shortly after the statement of the current mayor that he would put forward his candidacy for a second term.
