CENTR

2009-2011

In the summer of 2009, Princip was again detained by the police. Left the group that same summer Guf. He stated this in his interview. Debut album released in September 2009 Slim "Cold" and a video for the track of the same name. First studio album released in October Birds "About Nothing". 2nd studio album released in December Guf'a "At Home", not released on Central Administrative District. January 7, 2010 Bird in his interview he announced the breakup of the group. But despite this, the group's tour "CENTR" (Slim, Ptah) continue. Already after "decay" the group shot a video for the song "Is it easy to be young". It was dropped because according to the terms of the contract with the label, the album "Ether is normal" It was planned to shoot two videos. Each member of the group was filmed separately at different times, in different places and they did not see each other (Although Slim and Bird often crossed paths). In the video report on the third anniversary "CAO",Bird spoke about his future and the future of the group "CENTR": “I found myself. I changed the name because the groups "CENTR" no more, and I’m telling you a secret - there was no third participant and there won’t be - we were kidding! The band's third album "CENTR" it won’t, if it does, it will be only the three of us Guf, but this is unlikely. Well, God forbid, of course, God forbid! Like this! Peace to all - it was the Bore from "CAO". rest in peace "CENTR", rest in peace, Bird! Peace to you all, all the best to you! Suddenly in 2010 the group "CENTR" made itself felt again: July 29 at the club ARENA MOSCOW Wu-Tang Clan will perform in full force before the Moscow public. Before the concert, the organizers prepared a pleasant surprise for hip-hop fans; the newly reunited and perhaps the most popular rap team in our country - the group "CENTR". June 12, at the birthday concert David "Birds" "Bore 30" a video was presented "Nothing to share", in which they participate Bore and Smoke, representing "CAO Records" and Moscow, as well as 9 grams, Gypsy King and Bugz, representing "Bustazz Records" And Ekaterinburg. And after the release of as many as 5 solo works, that’s exactly how many Slim And Bird, have released two albums since their last collaboration on the project CENTR in 2008, the guys decided to once again remind everyone that this is not the end of the story, and present to your attention the long-awaited, third studio album of the same CENTR's. And there are no longer three of them, for which Moscow rappers from the group were added Legends Pro with whose support this record was recorded. The joint brainchild was named "Legends About...CENTR". The album is more similar in spirit to "Swing" rather than with “Ether is normal”. Here and "Road City", which became a continuation of the track "City of Roads", and a track with a working title "Just Money" and believe me, there’s a lot that will make you really surprised and play these tracks on repeat in your player, listening to these stories.

Tomorrow in St. Petersburg there will be Versus with the participation of Guf and Ptakha, the first high-profile battle of 2018 with an unprecedented prize fund by world standards - three million rubles. We recall the background to the conflict between two ex-Centr members, which developed over ten years.

- August 2009

Slim and Ptah responded with a clip “Spice baby”, an evil parody of Guf’s hit that was booming at the time (Ptah didn’t read in the song itself, but starred in the video).

Later in an interview with TV Jam Guf speaks, What The reason for the breakup of the group was “not women or drugs,” but “some kind of envy, money, something else.”“The two participants probably didn’t have enough attention from the public.” Bird's version: this was led to by some mysterious events on June 6, 2009 in Lugansk.

- Autumn 2009

In an interview with Rap.ru, answering questions about the future prospects of the Centr group without Guf, Ptah says: “ I think there will still be a new Centr album. Maybe we can make peace and make it the three of us. Or maybe if we don’t make peace, we’ll make it three of us.”

- Spring 2012

Quote from Bird: “It was a breakthrough for me. My cap was running then. I personally did not share anything with anyone. There was a moment when it was necessary to take a serious step, which would still have led to the collapse of the group. This is a closed topic, I don’t want to talk about it. Telling the true story of the collapse of the Centr group is fucked up. I'm not ready for this second wave. There's a lot of dirt, underground stuff. I'm not ready for the second wave of throwing mud at each other. It was the people who perceived Guf as a leader. But we ourselves did not have such a concept - “leader”. I did promotion and PR. Vadim was responsible for the musical component. At that moment Lyosha was hanging around and writing texts.”

Quote from Slim: “The situation that happened then was the last straw. I have a mediocre relationship with her. It seems to me that Guf eventually left because, firstly, he understood that he would be in demand as a solo artist in the same way as in the Centr group. And that's a fact . Secondly, the relations within the group did not completely suit him. All this accumulated in a lumpy way, and eventually a situation arose after which we stopped communicating.”

- Autumn 2014

- June 2016

In an interview with LIfe.ru, he also says that he didn't like Bird's reading and his work on stage.“I felt terribly uncomfortable being around this person. Vadik and I expressed complaints to him about the reading and performance of his verses - I was absolutely not satisfied with what he was doing and how he treated the album.”

Bird responds to these claims in an interview with The Flow. “Lyosha started to stress me out because I was partying. I chose a profession for myself so that I can hang out. I don’t think it’s anything terrible to go on stage with a joint and a bottle of whiskey. I'm a rapper. Not a pop artist, not some opera singer, I'm a rapper. This is normal for me. And when they try to tell me that I should work specifically... That’s it, as soon as I heard the word “work”, I say: “Okay. I’ll go play music, and you guys work.” We had a huge quarrel over this.”

- May 2017

Also, Guf, answering the question of how he attracts the attention of beautiful girls, says that you should ask Ptah about this - he has more girls.

- June-July 2017

A little later, he gives a fiery interview to the Ren TV channel. Guf’s personal life also becomes a reason for discussion.

Powerful quote: “I think he is a vile, two-faced, materialistic person. And also alphonsite. I've been a gigolo for half my life. He always chose the chick who was not more beautiful, but richer. A vile, two-faced, mercantile person who looks for his own benefit everywhere. I won’t be surprised that he will also sign up with Timati after throwing mud at him.” A couple of weeks later, the premiere of Timati and Guf’s joint video “Generation” takes place.

The legendary Russian rap group "Center" again decided to please its fans. Several years passed after the musicians completed their joint activities and set off on their own. Each of the performers of the Center group began their solo career. At that time, not all fans understood the reasons for the group's breakup. But today the “Center” again appears before us in full force.

History of the founding of the group

Initially, the team had a different name. The biography of the Center group is very eventful. Its creators were Alexey Dolmatov and Roma. In the 2000s, the musicians came up with the name Rolexx. And this was the case until 2004. Afterwards, Alexey and Roma decided to rename the group, and it became known as “Center”. Its first creators are considered to be Guf (Alexey Dolmatov) and Princip. The musicians recorded one of their first albums called “Gift”. This was an event for the closest and dearest people. The album's circulation numbered only thirty copies. And they all quickly dispersed.

The album “Gift” had a symbolic number of tracks - thirteen. Literally a year later the musicians perform at a concert. Also at this time, the composition of the Center group was replenished with two new performers. They came from other groups. Bird was in the group Les Misérables, and Slim was in Smokescreen. But this composition did not last long. Princip left the group due to problems with the law. He received a prison sentence. This incident put the musicians into a kind of trance, and they suspended their work for a year.

Composition of the group "Center"

The Center group is not just some ordinary group that reads text to music. The guys entered the world history of the rap industry. They were able to strengthen their position in a short period of time and put tracks about drugs at a high level. The uniqueness of the group lies in the fact that all the musicians read about everyday life and their lives, and are not afraid to talk about what they use and what problems follow. The composition of the group changed several times, but all those who took part in it made a very big contribution to the development of the team.

Composition of the Center group:

• Slim.
• Principle.
• Bird.
• DJ Shved.

Centr is a rap group from Moscow. Princip was the first to leave the team for well-known reasons. Afterwards Guf also left the team. An interesting fact is that Alexey Dolmatov took the pseudonym Guf after the formation of the group. Before that it was called Rolexx.

The group's rapid career

After the release of the first album in the new line-up together with Guf, Ptah and Slim, the group’s popularity began to increase. Musicians began to be invited to concerts. The composition “Heat 77” became the soundtrack to the film “Heat,” which starred such famous actors as Arthur Smolyaninov, Konstantin Kryukov and Timati. Bird also played a cameo role. In the film, he is a thief who often commits scams, as well as the husband of the protagonist’s beloved girlfriend.

After the release of the first work, the second one for the film “Shadowboxing-2” followed after a while. famous for being written based on Basta’s composition “My Game”. Not only Guf, but also Basta took part in its creation. Their rapid career gave the musicians the opportunity and impetus to create their own label, TsAO Records. Some performers did not like such a rapid rise of their colleagues on stage. Conflicts began, especially due to the fact that the group’s name was already the author’s. For these reasons, the guys decided to rename the team CENTR.

“Center” is a group whose biography, reviews and creativity were ambiguous. Many people accepted the new name, but there were also those who could not get used to it for a long time. The highlight of the team was that Guf and Ptah have speech impediments. This has become their unique feature in the world of hip-hop. So, Guf burrs and does not pronounce a certain letter, and Ptah has a lisp.

"Swing" and showdowns

After TsAO Records was created, performers begin to record new tracks. So, in 2008 the album “Swing” was released. He becomes famous from the first days. Its circulation is more than twenty thousand copies. This album also includes a track called “About Love.” It was marked by the fact that Bird in it insults a rap artist from Germany. This moment really caught the opponent’s attention, so a corresponding reaction to the insult soon followed.

Further, video works were released on both sides, where both performers are trying to prove that they are right, while telling not very flattering stories about each other. Thus, a rapper from Germany spoke out about the group CENTR, noting that they promote drugs. But this did not change anything in the lives of musicians; they also read and compose texts about their lives, about what can be changed and what cannot.

Solo career

In 2009, one of its founders, Alexey Dolmatov, left the Center group. Everything happens quickly and unexpectedly. By the end of the year, the participants are already recording tracks separately. None of the musicians could really explain to their fans why Guf left. There were a lot of assumptions and myths. Only after a while does Slim say that they are simply tired of each other. After all, the schedule of rap artists was very tight, they practically did not rest. And all this greatly affects relationships in the team.

Guf took up a solo career and released his second album entitled “At Home”. Army Group Center was left with only Slim and Ptah. They toured together and completed the single “About Love”. It is noteworthy that the musicians signed a contract with the label and were supposed to shoot a video for the song “Is It Easy to Be Young.” The video was filmed after all, only all three performers were filmed in different places and at different times. Slim and Ptah no longer crossed paths with Guf.

Alexey Dolmatov: life and work

Alexey began rapping at the age of 19. He lived with his grandmother in Moscow and decided to create a group. A lot of time passed before he took the pseudonym Guf. In Moscow, Alexey was initially famous under the name Rolexx. His first composition, entitled “Chinese Wall,” was created together with rapper aka Marlin. After the world was able to see the talented musician, Guf began to take off. The creation of the Center group took place in the 2000s, at which time Alexey met his future wife.

The love story began in a nightclub where they first met. Guf's beloved was called Aiza. She was the daughter of an FSB general. Everything started to spin very quickly, and the newlyweds got married. Then came the birth of a child. But apparently, the stars were not on their side, and the couple soon separated. Isa married a surfer. In 2013, Alexey experienced a personal tragedy - the loss of his grandmother. She dies of a heart attack.

Group "Center": composition after return

In 2015, the Center group decides to reunite. Their first album, entitled “System,” will be released literally next year. The impetus for this was precisely Bird, who decided that the time had come for a reunion. After Guf left the group, the guys did not keep in touch for about five years. Each was pursuing their own solo career, but, as Slim said, “Center” gave them a lot, and therefore it’s worth trying again.

Today, the full lineup of the rap group Centr, together with A’STUDIO, is recording a new single, “Far.” Work is already underway on the video. Soon fans will be able to see new and fresh creative ideas from the musicians.

However, in 2013 the group reunited, and not so long ago the band’s new studio album “ System" But along with this came new bad news: the team broke up again. And recently Guf spoke about the reasons for another split.

Ptah, in one of his interviews, blamed Guf for the next breakup of the group. In his opinion, Alexey was irresponsible about his work. However, the rapper did not ignore his colleague’s statement and offered his version of events. “I was, of course, very “pleased” that again I was to blame for all this,” said Guf. - In fact, I made this decision a long time ago, even during the recording of the “System” album. I was not satisfied with absolutely everything, especially the framework and deadlines into which I was driven. In two months they forced me to write fifteen verses, but I can’t do that, I always need to think! Something has to happen in life before I write a verse, I can’t churn them out like pancakes.”

In addition, Guf believes that the reason for the unsuccessful reunion of the group was the low quality of the lyrics. “I think that while listening to the album, it’s clear that all the verses were written by me out of ***. Yes, I was not satisfied with Ptakh’s behavior, the group’s approach to work, behavior on tour, and so on. Apparently, over the years while we were at loggerheads, our views completely diverged. I felt terribly uncomfortable being around this person. Vadik and I expressed complaints to him about the reading and performance of his verses - I was absolutely not satisfied with what he was doing and how he treated the album. In the end, we got this album, I don’t know, maybe someone likes it,” the rapper said.
