About Viktor Robertovich Tsoi
Wikipedia
Viktor Robertovich Tsoi (Russian: Ви́ктор Ро́бертович Цой; 21 June 1962 – 15 August 1990) was a Soviet singer and songwriter who co-founded Kino, one of the most popular and musically influential bands in the history of Russian music.
Born and raised in Leningrad, Tsoi started writing songs as a teenager. Throughout his career, Tsoi contributed a plethora of musical and artistic works, including ten albums. After Kino appeared and performed in the 1987 film Assa, the band's popularity sparked, triggering a period referred to as "Kinomania", and leading to Tsoi's role as Moro, the protagonist of the 1988 film The Needle. In 1990, after their high-profile concert on Luzhniki Stadium, Tsoi briefly relocated to Latvia with bandmate Yuri Kasparyan to work on the band's next album. Two months after the concert, Viktor Tsoi died in a car collision.[1][2]
He is regarded as one of the pioneers of Russian rock and is credited with popularizing the genre throughout the Soviet Union. He retains a devoted following in many ex-Soviet countries, such as Russia, Kazakhstan, and Ukraine, where he is known as one of the most influential and popular people in the history of Russian music.
