Biography L Jane

Culture, rest, sport Isaiah Alexander Panasyuk was born and raised in Brest. Gained fame as an artist of the Malfa musical label Maxim Fadeev. He successfully performed in Brest in the year of the millennium. Since the end of the year, it has been working independently - with its creative association "Room 84". Actively performs on youth parties and in the nightclubs of Belarus. His youth hits “Return love”, “touch”, “my city” and others are well known.

The clip for the popular track "Blub" in two years has collected more than 10 million views. Isaiah then performed under the nickname L-jane.

Also, other popular hits of the performer gained more than a million “presses”. The journalist "Evening" asked the musician whether it was worth "steaming" about the possible blocking of social networks and how to survive creativity during the Covid period. Alexander, as a mood, do you find an opportunity for creativity in these difficult times? It is no secret, in many ways there lived a music business in Russia.

I mean monetization, "third -party" sites and much more. Most young people are now walking with iPhones and listening to “Apple Music”. And suddenly it became incomprehensible what would happen to all these "shops", will they exist or not? Previously, we collaborated with different companies abroad. It was interesting. As with this in the future, it is difficult to judge. In addition, some payments and transfers have ceased to be held.

What do you plan to do in such a situation? What is the way out? Or CIS companies. This applies to performances, tour, etc. Of course, we did not lose heart, we thought that everything would be better, but what happened happened. I mean all kinds of sanctions and restrictions. It seems that now the musical business is in the stage when it was only born. But after all, people will still look for, listen to music ...

- Many now think that they will take the places of companies that have gone. Like, a lot of free space has appeared, you need to take this niche. In my opinion, such steps will no longer bring the popularity and monetization that was before. Moreover, when it comes to Russian rubles. In general, all these are disadvantages: fewer companies, fewer artists, less income. And vice versa.

Exit: develop your own? Our people are savvy ... I want to believe that “unique” will appear, that progress will go towards doing something and their own. And whoever comes to the vacant place and at least try to give the same “tools” for cooperation as they were before, he will be successful. Because the demand is quite large. You are present in all social networks, some clips have collected more than a million views.

Preparing to suddenly be blocked by Instagram or YouTube in Belarus? Strange as it may seem, Germany was released in second place. We become popular in some countries, but, honestly, these are not the “volumes”, the number of listeners and fans who are in Russia. As for the locking of Instagram ... From a political point of view, this step is clear. To arrange a national strife in networks, to call to kill is, of course, wrong.

But it is better to act pointily. After all, someone made the "flap" English. After VK, Instagram quickly gained popularity due to simplicity and ease of use. There are other networks, but this is a different interface, the arrival of information. Therefore, everyone will fail: small business, bloggers, musicians. At one point, everything will be taken from us if a shutdown happens.

Yes, people will bypass locks, use VPN and other methods. But I do not think that “blocking” is a way out. My listeners are not only subscribers. I hope that real fans will remain, in any case they will find me. Even if I disappear from any one social network ... Once people handed over cassettes with records in electric trains. And the music also developed.

Of course, the world has changed, and I would not want to return to the "Stone Age." Then no one could have imagined that we would begin to earn on the Internet. But I am sure that social networks should be available to everyone. I repeat, if the state does not suit something, it should work pointily. But do not take away from people the opportunity to communicate with each other.

Yes, there is a certain “trash” on the Internet, so it must be blocked. Large views did not come on their own, it was worked out for years, days and nights were dedicated to them. Alexander, when will there be performances in offline mode? Or again "not the time"? According to their energy. Let the best times come ... I have decided on politics for a long time, when we did the tribe of the hits of Yuri Shevchuk to the DDT lamp.

For example, on the famous song “Boys” about the war in Chechnya ... Thinking about people is always important. I generally smiles one of the most “tough” pacifists. I believe that in the 21st century people should negotiate, and not put cartridges into horns. This is my personal opinion. So let's really listen to good music and meet at concerts!
