Egor Rakitin

In November 2018, the Internet, which, it seems, has already seen everything, just flashed from the headlines, enthusiastically reporting the breakthrough of the young Russian rapper in the prestigious foreign chart. And this, it should be noted, is really a success - when you are 18 years old and you were practically not known at home.

The star of the Russian rap artist is still rising, so there is not so much exhaustive information about the biography and its formation. Born in Zyablikovo, in the south of Moscow, on the fifth day of January 2000, lived with his grandmother. After school he entered college with a military department, because he did not want to join the army, but dropped out. I did not intend to go to university at all - I did not believe in Russian higher education and was afraid that he would sit at textbooks all day.

The creative pseudonym Big Baby Tape, translated into Russian, does not contain anything criminal. The musician's real name is Yegor Rakitin.

In his early childhood (4 years), he first got acquainted with the works of 50 Cent, and then with Gucci Mane, which impressed the boy so much that soon the traditional question "Who do you want to become?" he loudly and clearly stated that he was only a rapper. And at the age of 11 he began to move towards his dreams, creating his own melodies on FL Studio.

Who specifically showed the teenager how to press buttons on it - there was a disagreement in the media. Some called a brother a friend, others a friend of a brother. However, at first, Rakitin's relationship did not work out with the "sound machine", and after a month he abandoned his studies. However, fate had its own plans, she sent her sister Yegor a boyfriend, part-time beatmaker, and he returned to the art of music.

As for personal life, it is reliably hidden from prying eyes. No, of course, on the artist's Instagram no, no, and there will be a video showing him in a car in the company of two pretty blondes driving around his hometown and, of course, singing. The video even got on Youtube, where one of the ladies was rushed to baptize Yegor's girlfriend.

In the single Trap Medals, the chorus was performed by a Muscovite Asya, with whom, according to Rakitin, he has a long-standing friendship. The girl also performs in the hip-hop genre under the name Alizade, in 2018 she recorded her debut track Hoodrich Tales.

The creative tandem has one more hit "Gucci" under its belt. The composition reached fans in a roundabout way only because American rapper Gucci Mane responded to Big Baby Tape's message on Instagram.

From his hobbies and hobbies, Yegor prefers cooking.

When asked about his favorite representatives of the "old school" rap, he noted "Caspian Cargo", "AK-47" and "Market Relations".

Before becoming Big Baby Tape, the guy created beats under the nickname DJ Tape, planned to record his debut album, in the title to which the year of birth was added to the stage name. But something went wrong. Rakitin did not lose heart and accepted the first failure as a call for change. And, having decided to "sing rap", he retrained to Tape LaFlare. This alter ego later faded into the background, and DJ Tape appears periodically, in "Brigade" for example.

The Big Baby Tape project appeared as a banter, no one made plans to conquer the Universe. The tracks were initially performed "for fun" and focused on foreign musicians KirbLaGoop, Goth Money Records, CHXPO, etc.

That is exactly how, thanks to GTA, Eminem and "Fifty Sant", I independently learned English and thought over the details of a memorable image. In the latter, the same Gucci Mane, who sported in ladies' glasses, served as a reference point. And the incarnation was helped by a member of Benzo Gang, who brought a sun-protection accessory to his mother. Later, it was accidentally lost, and was replaced by "Kurtokobeinovskie" for 150 rubles. from the store "Funny prices".

In 2016, Rakitin released his first instrumental album, The Further Adventures Inside The Trap, followed by the mixtape Cookin 'Anthem.

2017 came when the first long-awaited solo compilation Big Baby Tape was born. After its release, the performer continued to churn out singles without stopping. Such frantic efficiency and obvious talent did not go unnoticed for the "Russian Drake" Feduk, who could not resist publishing a video in Stories about how Yegor was enjoying rap, and who did not forget to mention that in Yuri Dud's program.

This, of course, increased interest in Rakitin, but, according to him, there was no particular resonance, or, as it is fashionable to say now, hype, did not happen. But with Feduk there was an acquaintance, and later cooperation, expressed in the track Hustle Tales.

Big Baby Tape x Feduk Coming soon.

The performer's repertoire includes many joint works with other young rappers. For example, Konnichiwa and People Train People were recorded with Ufa's Boulevard Depo, Legends of Zelda - with Og Buda, 1000 rounds - with LOCO OG ROCKA. TikTok users have come up with a comic Big Baby Tape collaboration with Nikolai Baskov and Morgenshtern.

Sometimes the artists themselves invite Yegor to a partnership, as did Pharaoh and Husky, Jeembo, Dope V and OG Prince.

In 2018, two albums were released at once: in the summer - Hoodrich Tales, in the fall - Dragonborn. Colleagues already known to the Russian listener took part in their creation.

Dragonborn turned the rap world upside down. Popular singles from it were Hokage, Wasabi and, of course, Gimme The Loot. The latter confidently climbed to the top of the charts on the VKontakte social network, in the iTunes Store and Apple Music. The victorious procession did not end there: on Genius, the compositions of Ariana Grande, the queen of outrageous Lady Gaga and the cult group Freddie Mercury were left behind.

In an interview preceding the release of the collection, its author predicted:

After the incident, the fans simply attacked the public and the Big Baby Tape account, and the media did not skimp on words of praise - "new rap hero" and "prince of trap".

At the end of 2018, the artist, along with Monetochka, Ivan Dorn, Danila Poperechny, appeared on TV - on the alternative "Blue Light", invented by the host of "Evening Urgant". As a duet with Boulevard Depo, he performed Mister Small's track "I will die young".

On December 7, with a concert in St. Petersburg, the Russian tour began, covering 16 cities, where fans could see the rising star live, and not only from photographs.

Despite the fact that listeners under the age of 16 or even under 18 were not allowed to perform, Yegor also fell under the wave of the “generational gap”, the confrontation between rappers and advocates of morality. The tour did not take place in a number of cities. And where the musician arrived, "they watched, observed, recorded."

Big Baby Tape emphasized that it is trying to comply with the law. But if the artist is forced into frames, this is no longer art, but pure show business. And the parents of today's children also listened to profanity, it is not clear why now they are looking for the guilty.

In May 2019, Big Baby Tape added a mini-album ARGUMENTS & FACTS to its discography. In the fall, I presented an excerpt from a collaboration with Leel Crystal called "7 Days". Took part in the project beatmaker Aаrne, with whom the musician wrote Surname.

The fans decided that the club-style autotune, which was not characteristic of the artist before, was a signal of a change in sound. In addition, Egor's Instagram posted a photo with clip-maker Danya Guskov as confirmation of his words that there is no need to wait for new releases yet. The rapper planned to focus on making music videos.

However, in November 2019, Big Baby Tape released Trap Luv, a kind of remix of a song by the group "Hands up!" "He kisses you." Needless to say, the audience had enough of the excerpt published on social networks for the composition to rise to 2nd place on Genius.

The experiment was appreciated by the band's frontman Sergey Zhukov - he posted a photo collage with the rapper on Instagram, who provided his own version of the chorus in the hip-hop style.

In the same 2019, Forbs included Rakitin in the list of 30 most promising representatives of Russian youth in the Music and Film category. He was accompanied by Monetochka and clip-maker Alina Pyazok.

By 2020, Big Baby Tape has amassed enough material to go on another tour. The concerts took place in Moscow, St. Petersburg and Kiev. Trap prodigy was allocated not the last music venues. In the capital, there is the Adrenaline Stadium club, which seats up to 7 thousand people, where world stars perform. In the city on the Neva, the organizers provided the Tinkoff-Arena. Kievites hosted the Stereo Plaza club.

The musician dreams of returning to Tape LaFlare and compositions on the shelves. And there is jungle, and footwork, and fonk with memphis. Enough for more than one album, but Big Baby Tape tries not to shine on old developments
