Biography
He is one of the best-known rock poets in Russia. Chilap's lyrics and music are imbued with the spirit of the liberated generation, a spirit he describes as a "flux of culture", where Pink Floyd coexists with Debussy, and the father of Russian literary avant-garde Khlebnikov with Van Gogh. In 1999 and 2000 he was awarded the President's grant for Literature. His book, 8 ruk, chtobi obnyat' tebya became a bestseller in Russia.
The recorded working language is Russian. Subjects and genres recorded for the work are rock music.
