Interesting fact about LSP:

I would like to work with Micah

Popular performer gave frank interview about a friend whose life was tragically cut short last year. Oleg Savchenko from “LSP” became the new guest of the “vDud” show. During the episode, Oleg talked a lot about his career, plans for the future and, of course, about Roma the Englishman.

In the new episode of the show “vDud” the guest was Oleg Savchenko, the frontman of the group “LSP”. The performer invited Yuri Dud to visit him and talked very openly with him about the past and future. As usual, during the conversation there was a lot of swearing, talking about sex, illegal substances and big plans.

As part of the issue, Oleg talked about topics that concern fans and gave answers to questions that for a long time avoided. Let us recall that last year, under tragic circumstances, the composer and producer of the LSP group, Roman Sashchenko, better known under the pseudonym Roma the Englishman, passed away. They tried to hide the causes of death, but everyone understood that a drug overdose was to blame. And now, after a long time, Oleg spoke quite openly about this topic for the first time.

First, Oleg remembered how he met Roma and at what point they decided to create a group. Savchenko admitted that he quickly became close to the Englishman and even began to consider him the brother he never had.

“I had an episode - “Seeing Colorful Dreams”, it was brought together by a guy from Mogilev. Cool, smart dude. He helped mix the release, and it turned out that he had a friend who helped him in all aspects - Roma. The two of them wanted to do something in the style of “ Major Lazer" or "Diplo". The two of them were doing such a project at that time. Roma listened to what he did for me, joked around and somehow ended up at our party in Mogilev. (...) And we are like that with him<заболтались>. Everyone had already started to go home, and we then stayed in the kitchen and talked. I gave him an enthusiastic<фигню>, <понтовался>And smart words spoke. And he agreed. We caught the wave. I realized that he was a cool guy, and we agreed to catch up in Minsk,” Oleg recalled.

The very next day Oleg sent Roma a text that he really wanted to make music for and asked the Englishman to work on the arrangement. Almost immediately the composer sent him a minus, which perfectly matched the words.

“I turn it on, sing it and everything goes away,” recalls Oleg. - You know, it’s like “that same” guy with a guitar in the yard - no matter what you ask, he knows everything. And he plays to one tune like “Battery”, and everything falls on it, roughly speaking.”

Then the Englishman used dubstep in the arrangement. This was already fashionable in the world, but in Minsk, where Roman is from, it had not yet taken root. At first, the musicians worked on business terms, and then they became related and became the LSP group.

Oleg was silent for a long time about what happened that day when his close friend died

It’s hard for Oleg to talk about the prohibited substances that “took” the life of his close friend. According to him, these are Roma’s secrets that he would like to hide from prying eyes.

“Roma is part of my family. I very quickly began to treat him as brother and accepted it wholeheartedly<фигней>like a brother. I consider his parents to be my parents, and they also consider me a son. Everything that concerns Roma and his parents, you<волновать>It shouldn’t,” Savchenko responded emotionally.

The only way Oleg spoke on this topic was to draw a parallel between the Englishman and Gorshok from the KiSh group, who died under similar circumstances. Savchenko believes that they have similar fates. Both had a lifestyle in which many were surprised that death had not overtaken them even earlier.

After Roma’s death, Oleg decided not to close the LSP group and began performing with a new team

Remember the day when close friend passed away, it’s still difficult for the performer. Interestingly, Savchenko feels relieved. Shortly before the death of the Englishman, the friends did not see each other for a couple of weeks, which, as Oleg now claims, subsequently helped him accept what happened relatively calmly.

“Denya Astapov called me and said: “Everything has happened.” And I understood everything,” Oleg shares his memories. - This is not easy news, I received these<тумаков>informational. When I went through all this, I began to think about what to do next.”

Dud clarified whether close people, in particular Oleg, tried to fight bad habit Roma. And if not forcibly put in the hospital, then at least just talk, explain the whole situation, outwit...

Next year Oleg plans to gather about 15 thousand people for the band’s concert.

“We made attempts,” admits Savchenko. - Until a person wants something himself, it will not happen. If he sincerely wants it, he achieves it. I answered your question, even if you think that - no (...) Roma was the most cunning dude I know. No one could outwit Roma, and in some way Roma outwitted himself.”

Yuri Dud: “So he sincerely wanted to die?”

“You can interpret it that way,” replied the band’s frontman

Oleg's childhood

Oleg Savchenko, better known as Oleg LSP, was born in the city of Vitebsk, into a family of journalists. Since childhood, his parents supported Oleg’s passion for music. So the father bought his son a piano so that the son could hone his skills. Oleg admits that as a child he liked musicians such as Andrei Gubin, Bad Balance, Decl. When Oleg got older, he listened to Zemfira and Mumiy Troll. But soon Oleg gets bored with this music and is captivated by American rap. For Oleg, one thing became clear - the text is of secondary importance, and the sound is above all.

Already from early years Oleg LSP saw himself as an artist, despite the fact that everyone around him said that this was a stupid idea. After graduating from school, Oleg entered the university to study philology, and at this time he began to take his first steps in creativity.

Creation of the LSP duet

In those years small company Belarusian guys, including Max Korzh, tried to raise Belarusian rap and recorded many demos, none of which were ever published. In 2007, the first mixtape “I Got Everything” was released. A year later, Oleg takes part in the sixth team battle of hip-hop.ru. His team was called ШREC PRO, and it also included Max Korzh. The team reached the second round. In the same 2008, LSP tries to conquer hip-hop.ru solo at the eighth official round, but he doesn’t succeed and is eliminated in the fourth round. After hearing Kanye West’s tracks, Oleg LSP’s idea of ​​music completely changes. In 2011, Oleg released his first Ep “Seeing Colorful Dreams”, as well as his first video “Hippie”. In 2012, Oleg met his future accomplice LSP groups Roma. Their first joint track was released a couple of days after they met and was called LSP - Numbers.

Getting to know Oksimiron and the beginning of the hype

2013 was a year of experimentation. The group wandered between different styles and sound balance. In May, LSP released the track “Cocktail”, which became the hit of the year in Belarus.


2014 becomes a turning point in the career of Oleg and the group. The guys release 2 releases “Yop” and “Hangman”. In the same year, the duo was noticed by Oksimiron, and persuaded Ilya Mamai to attend their concerts. Miron also records a fit from LSP “I’m bored with life.” Oleg also takes part in the Versus Battle and defeats Illumate.
2015 becomes the most successful year for LSP, as one of the most successful Russian rap albums of that year, “Magic City,” is released. The album featured Pharaoh and Oksimiron.

However, everything did not go so smoothly - the guys had problems with concerts, and they blamed their agency for this. Ultimately, LSP and Booking Machine terminate the contract. Oxy and Oleg agreed not to advertise this situation in any way. But LSPs begin to harshly criticize Bukin Machine. In the end, Porchy invites Oleg to his album, and LSP writes a diss track against his former colleagues on the verse. Oxxxymiron releases a diss track in response. Next, the rappers retrained as video bloggers and tried to argue their point of view.

In the fall of 2016, LSP released a joint mini-album “Confectionery”.
In April 2017, the LSP group released the album “Tragic City”. On July 30, the most tragic event in the history of the LSP group occurs - the second member of the group, Roma, an Englishman, died of heart failure. Oleg decided to continue making music, despite such a blow. A little later, LSP releases a video for one of the tracks from Tragic City, in which video blogger Dmitry Larin played the role of Roma the Englishman.

Together with this artist, we look through biographies:

Oleg Vadimovich Savchenko is a Belarusian singer, rap performer, performing under the pseudonym LSP (abbreviation English phrase Little Stupid Pig) - was born on July 10, 1989 in Vitebsk, in a family of journalists.

The musician often plays on his pseudonym. So, in an interview on Big Russian Boss Show - April 25, 2017 episode - He said, "My favorite transcript is 'Better Ask Later.'

Oleg's passion for music came to him as a child. Oleg's father hired a piano tutor for his son. He liked the work of Andrei Gubin. Then, with the release of the Star Factory 4 project on television, Savchenko became inspired by hip-hop rhythms, and Timati became his idol. Later, in 2011, Savchenko commented on this event:

“Can you imagine what it was like for me at 14 years old?! Rap on Channel One! So it's time. So, we need to fuck.”

Listening to Bad Balance and Decl, the aspiring musician honed his skills. Parents never refused support, especially during my studies at the Faculty of Philology of Moscow State Linguistic University.

Debut album “I Got It All!” Oleg Savchenko recorded it in 2007. Two years later, the artist released his second album, “No Appeals.” The recording featured fellow rap artists Deech and Maxie Flow. In 2009, Savchenko released the video “Hippie” and the album “Seeing Colorful Dreams.”

In 2012, collaboration began with beatmaker and musician Roma Sashchenko (Roma Englishman). Their first collaboration was the song “Numbers”. The duo is actively filming videos - “Why do I need this world” and “LSP - Cocktail”.

In January 2014, LSP released the album “YOP”. In May of the same year, the album “Hangman” was released. Video clips were shot for the songs “Vinegrette” and “Lost and Not Found”. In the summer, LSP and Roma Englishman begin cooperation with Russian rap artist Miron Fedorov, performing under the pseudonym Oxxxymiron and with the booking agency Booking Machine, which is headed by Oksimiron’s friend Ilya Mamai.

In September 2014, Oleg took part in the St. Petersburg hip-hop project Versus Battle, where his opponent was battle regular Meowizzy. The issue was released on October 19, 2014, and the victory in verbal duel Oleg won.

At the end of November Oleg Savchenko releases working together with Oxxxymiron “I’m bored with life.” Another song, “Madness,” became a real hit. On February 3, 2015, the mini-album Romantic Colegtion was released, the name of which plays on the names of the performers. In 2015, the duo stopped collaborating with Booking Machine and in the summer of the same year, Oleg Savchenko released solo album Magic City. The album becomes popular in Russia.

The break in relations with Booking Machine and Oksimiron had a great resonance in the cultural environment, in other words, a big beef began in Russian rap. Oleg expressed doubts about the success of cooperation with the booking agency. He did this in the form of a verse for the song Imperial, which Oksimiron's Portuguese producer Porchy asked him to record. Oksimiron and his colleague mistook LSP’s words for a diss. A 40-minute justification for Oleg and a 50-minute appeal from Miron followed online, in which he accuses LSP of ingratitude.

On September 30, 2016, LSP released the mini-album “Confectionery”, recorded together with Gleb Golubin, known under the pseudonym Pharaoh. On April 28, 2017, Oleg and Roman released the album Tragic City. In May of the same year, a video clip was shot for the song “Coin”, which received more than 20 million views in a short period of time.

At the end of July 2017, Savchenko’s colleague Roma Englishchanina passed away. In memory of the late Roman, Oleg Savchenko recorded a video clip for the song “Body”. The clip was released on YouTube on October 2, 2017. The role of Roman in the film adaptation of the song was played by video blogger Dmitry Larin, who looks like the deceased rap artist.
