Tony Tunight

Tony Tonite is a hip-hop performer whose songs are rotated on radio stations in Europe and America, a sound producer, a former resident of the Gazgolder music label. The artist himself calls himself a warrior of the world, a representative of good and without false modesty - Mr. Belarusian Celentano.

The biography of the beatmaker is the topic of numerous questions, to which detailed answers cannot yet be found. Something Anton - this is how Tony Tonite is called in ordinary life - tells in rare interviews, but for the most part they are devoted to creativity.

Tunayt was born in February 1987 in Brest in a very intelligent family: mother - Doctor of Philology, father - Physics and Mathematics. But his son was more attracted to the street than to study. From dad, according to Tony Tonite, musical logic was passed on to him, and from his mother - the ability to compose poetry. Grandfather, who had no education, played all kinds of folk instruments.

Music, by the rapper's own admission, he was engaged in as long as he could remember. Five-year-old Anton's mother's friend revealed perfect hearing and advised him to send the boy to a specialized educational institution. After a couple of months, having disliked solfeggio, the child gave up seemingly boring activities:

Later, the guy was sent to a choreographic school, and now it's hard to imagine, but Anton spent 11 years in the Nadezhda folk dance ensemble. At the same time, he managed to write for the Metoda group, perform with concerts in city clubs, and also became famous with the hit “I am the dad of Brest hip-hop”.

After graduating from high school, Tunayt continued his education at the Kiev National University. He entered the Department of Archeology of the Faculty of History, because he considered that special knowledge and skills were not required there. All five years of study he lived in a hostel, learned to independently solve everyday problems, be polite, and help others.

After graduating from university, Anton stayed in Kiev and, together with a friend, opened a studio, continued to write songs. His authorship belongs to the hit "Don't Fly away" for the duet "A Pair of Normal", in which Ivan Dorn performed. Within the framework of pure rap, Tunayt was cramped, so R&B and soul, chillwave and electro-funk, techno-hop and synthy are heard in his compositions.

Anton entered the big stage under the name Tony Montana as part of the Catchy Style collective. But the group soon disbanded, and already Tony Tonite released solo singles "POPSHIT EP" and "7 Troubles". The songs attracted attention because they differed sharply from the usual understanding of rap.

The author answered the questions that arose on this matter that this was the goal - not to comply with standards, not to follow patterns, not to fit into someone's trend, but to create your own. "POPSHIT", according to Toonite, is an experiment in general, pure banter.

In 2014, friend Kirill Muza Skat introduced Anton to Basta, who at that time was hatching the idea of ​​creating "BRATIA STEREO". And as often happens with like-minded people, acquaintance has grown into friendship and cooperation. For this album, Tony Tonite wrote the songs "Real Psycho" and "Ayayay". The latter hit the rotation of the British radio station BBC Radio 6, Gazgolder shot a video for it.

Tunayt said that he had signed a contract with "Gazgolder", since at that time he considered them the best in promotion, and the musician wanted to bring his own music to the general public. Later, when disagreements began, Anton said that relations with Vakulenko were developing normally, but "we did not agree with him about friendship, we agreed to work." The label did not impose conditions, it helped in terms of marketing and management. And in the financial component of the musician, everything was fine.

The track "I'm in Love", released a year later, got noticed by the authoritative music publication Hype Magazine. The song was heard in America. The result of the collaboration with Tati and Basta is the song "My Only", which topped the charts of the French national entertainment channel CStar.

In June 2016, Tony Tonite released his full-length debut album "Awake", to which the cult British musician, trip-hop founder Adrian Tous, known to the general public under the pseudonym Tricky, had a hand in it. The disc quickly rose to the top of the list of the best-selling iTunes in Russia. The listeners were surprised by the unexpected style of the track "Cold Star".

In the autumn of the same year, Anton, who speaks excellent English, presented the Russian-language album "Yu". The video for the title track "I would like to know" has gained over 1 million views in 2 weeks, Ksenia Borodina starred in the role of the central character, and the song topped the charts of Russian radio stations.

When Tunaite is asked questions about his personal life, the already not very outspoken musician becomes completely laconic. Anton has a wife and a son, but the rapper does not talk about them. He speaks of his beloved wife in enthusiastic tones - "my soul mate, my chosen one, baby, my moon." He dedicated the EP "Yu" to this anonymous lucky woman.

As a child, the singer was baptized, but he did not perceive Christianity as a religion. Since Anton did not know anything about this, he considered the rituals a compulsory "obligation". He preferred to sit at home and listen to music. At the age of 25, Tunayt came to Islam. In an interview, the musician said that at that time he lost his inner core, abused alcohol, friends left one after another. And there was no one nearby who would give instructions, help, suggest. Only the Most High paid attention to him, and thanks to him the singer got rid of the accumulated mental problems.

Tony Tonite boldly claims that he feels successful, is not afraid of anyone, and only the Almighty has power over him. The pressure of the material component in life is balanced by the state of mind, and big money, according to Tunayt, is the most severe test. The only thing he asks for in prayers is to be able to cope with your own emotions.

The performer of "non-standard hip-hop" is calm about the fact that there are days when nothing is earned. The popular and recognizable musician rides the subway and believes that communication with people contributes to inspiration, “the muse comes more often”. If you sit in a palace, surrounded by luxury, then this will only limit yourself. Hip-hop is the music of the poor, says Tony Tonite.

On Instagram, Anton took up the promotion of a patriotic idea - the distribution of T-shirts with the IzRB inscription, which means "From the Republic of Belarus".

At the beginning of 2017, a joint album by Anton and Valik Slovetsky called "Slovo and TT" was released at the Soyuz studio. In his support, the performers gave a series of concerts in the cities of Belarus. It is curious that "Gazgolder" did not say a word about the work of the musician, who was still listed as its artist.

In the summer of 2017, Tony Tonite released his debut mini-album "NOVY" as a solo artist and just a free MC. Before that, the rapper parted ways with the Gazgolder label, which, according to critic Christina Averina, turned music from entertainment into pure business. In a professional environment, the album received positive reviews. The composition "Summer" was chosen as a soundtrack for the TV series "Ivanovs. Ivanovs ".

By the fall, Anton presented a new track "One", and after a while performed it on the site of the reality show "Dom-2". At the same time, the song "Learned to Live" was released, which became another joint work. This time, Dj Nik One, aka Nikita Ragozin, joined Tunayt and rapper Pavel Kravets.

In the spring of 2018, Tony Tonite presented his next album "Love".

2013 - "Popshit" 2014 - "Ayayay" 2016 - "Awake" 2016 - "U" 2017 - "SLOVO and TT" 2017 - "NEW" 2018 - "Love"
