Guf told the truth about the collapse of the Centr group. Ptah Biography - Collapse of Centr, Conflicts, Solo Work Ptah - Concerts in Donbass

  • 02.08.2019

​The day before yesterday Guf wrote on Twitter saying that he had heard rumors that someone wanted to challenge him to a battle. The first one that comes to mind, of course, is Ptah - a man who probably has a lot of dirt on his former colleague, a man whose career has been slowly sinking since the very first collapse of the Center. Last night, Bird finally went on the attack, waving his dirty laundry over his head.

Ptah always considered himself a kind of guardian of the truth in Russian rap, got involved in other people’s squabbles, and threatened offenders. It’s not surprising: Ptah at least positions himself as a man of “those times” - he has gangster friends, and he himself “only works,” and he himself is “for justice.”

However, David loves to hype. Here are a few examples offhand, so as not to be unfounded: then, declaring that there is no rap in it (we apologize, but who in Russia determines the degree of rap content - Ptah? And who endowed him with these powers?).

That : “We don’t sell out, don’t bend and don’t change our decisions. We are creating a real information portal about Russian rap, and not a public page in which everyone can post the products of their “creativity” for 2,500 rubles.”. Yeah, but soon a peace agreement was concluded with “New Rap”, and there was no information portal in sight. Are you not bending? Don't change your decisions? Exactly?

Ptah in terms of rap (and, probably, life views in general) is orthodox to the core. Well, perhaps this is even commendable - everyone has the right to their own tastes. One of the main (at least one of the most frequently repeated) postulates of that very “real” hip-hop is: “Hip-hop is beyond politics.” What about Ptakhi, who once decided to become a deputy from the LDPR party? And what about Ptah, who (like the majors? They checked their income, looked into everyone’s pocket?) and then? What about Bird, who? What about Ptakhi, who has visited Donetsk and Lugansk with concerts more than once? The casket simply opens: in those places where a normal artist would never go in life, Ptah is a star of great magnitude. Exchange full halls in Donetsk and Lugansk for several failed ones in Odessa, Kharkov, Dnieper and Kyiv? Yes, it’s easy, it’s hard to judge here, the mathematics is simple, but the politicians here are above the roof.

Do you remember how Ptah “declared war” on bloggers Khovansky and Larin? “We will eradicate clowns like Khovansky and Larin from our topic. These characters get into rap with their mommy and thereby kill the culture.” Although Larin never said anything about any mothers - the blogger even recorded a video message to Ptah to urge him not to resort to physical violence.

And last summer Ptah wrote that he “found someone who will have to answer my invitation to versus” - he called him a “jumper,” obviously. But why does he need this - he already has full halls all over the country.

Finally, in a recent huge interview, here's what Bird had to say about the battles:

- How do you feel about Versus Battle?

- Disgusting. I think it's not normal for people to go out and throw mud at each other. This is immoral. This is complete nonsense and idiocy, no matter how technical it is.

Why did Bird suddenly decide to do something disgusting, abnormal, immoral, complete nonsense and idiocy? Why was he just so against battles, and now he decided to call Guf?

Let's be honest: for the sake of hype. Because Ptakh’s clips get 200, 300, even 500 thousand views, because they are already accustomed to his attacks on everyone, and Versus with Guf are guaranteed 20 million views, a sharp increase in sales on digital platforms and the number of concerts.

Bird is preparing an album - the last one, if not a failure, then certainly didn’t work, and if the same fate befalls new release David, he will finally go to the bottom.

Main question: Why did Ptah keep Guf’s angry audio message for about a year and a half? Why didn’t he decide everything at once, on the spot, because he is such a fighter for justice and truth? Why did he come to Shock to find out everything face to face, but couldn’t go to Guf?

From the same interview:

– To be honest, have you ever had to betray a friend?

- No. And thank God. Never betrayed a friend. This is my big problem.

Is the problem probably resolved? How about posting a message for everyone to see that a friend (OK, even an “ex” best friend") addressed specifically to you, is this not betrayal? Is this concept necessary...

Bird kept this message as a straw that he could grab onto - they say, look, Lyosha offended me, now I am FORCED to call him! That’s true, but, firstly, why didn’t David immediately, like a man, solve the problem?

Secondly, we don’t know what made Guf send this message - after all, he didn’t write it down out of the blue, probably Ptah said something before that? In the end, since Ptah took the game to the level of a laundry basket, where is the guarantee that this was not a provocation? Guf's tirade was taken out of the conversation, and it is definitely impossible to evaluate it alone.

Finally, there is nothing out of the ordinary in Guf’s message; it sounds like the most ordinary quarrel between people who have known each other for a long time.

“And don’t shout like that anymore, otherwise you’re acting like a chick.” Is it a man’s act to put something that needs to be decided face to face for everyone to see? It’s possible to kick Obi in the balls, but it’s not possible to hit Guf, is he really needed for the battle?

How events can develop:

1. Guf accepts the challenge, Bird takes out new incriminating evidence from the caches, hoping to gain the upper hand due to the skeletons in the closet, Guf wins by one wicket, if only because it is true “I read better than you.”

Who will win: First of all, the Restaurateur.

2. Guf ignores Ptah, he continues to provoke him, releases the album “Daring”, in next year becomes the headliner of the DPR Coachella.

Who will win: Guf is definitely not losing.

3. Instead of going to the battle, Guf writes a diss on Ptah (perhaps work on it is already underway). The bird will answer, of course.

Who will win: the one who then releases a stronger album, and here, it seems, everything is clear again.

Recommendations for Ptah: prove everything musical material, release interesting album, experiment, in the end, and stop thinking of yourself as the conscience of Russian rap - after yesterday’s act, this is definitely not the case.

Finally, answer these questions for yourself: simple questions: Why did Bird close the ability to comment on YouTube? Why are there twice as many dislikes on videos as there are likes? And, finally, why should the second part of “Gusli” be released soon, and not “Ptasli”?

P.S. The column was written before, which, in principle, did not change anything - it only made it clear that Guf is ready to fight with anyone, at any time. Maybe this is what Bird wanted?

In August 2009 (36), better known under the pseudonym Guf, after a quarrel with Vadim Ylev (35) (Slim) And David Nuriev (35) (Birdie) left the group Centr, which appeared in 2004 and managed to win the love of thousands of fans. However, in 2013 the group reunited, and not so long ago a new studio album team " System" But along with this came new bad news: the team broke up again. And recently Guf spoke about the reasons for the next split.

Ptah, in one of his interviews, blamed Guf for the next breakup of the group. In his opinion, Alexey was irresponsible about his work. However, the rapper did not ignore his colleague’s statement and offered his version of events. “I was, of course, very “pleased” that again I was to blame for all this,” said Guf. - In fact, I made this decision a long time ago, even during the recording of the “System” album. I was not satisfied with absolutely everything, especially the framework and deadlines into which I was driven. In two months they forced me to write fifteen verses, but I can’t do that, I always need to think! Something has to happen in life before I write a verse, I can’t churn them out like pancakes.”

In addition, Guf believes that the reason for the unsuccessful reunion of the group was the low quality of the lyrics. “I think that while listening to the album, it’s clear that all the verses were written by me out of ***. Yes, I was not satisfied with Ptakh’s behavior, the group’s approach to work, behavior on tour, and so on. Apparently, over the years while we were in a quarrel, our views completely diverged. I felt terribly uncomfortable being around this person. Vadik and I expressed complaints to him about the reading and performance of his verses - I was absolutely not satisfied with what he was doing and how he treated the album. The result was an album like this, I don’t know, maybe someone likes it,” the rapper said.

Tomorrow in St. Petersburg Versus will take place with the participation of Guf and Ptakhi, the first high-profile battle of 2018 with unprecedented by world standards prize fund- three million rubles. We recall the background to the conflict between two ex-Centr members, which developed over ten years.

- August 2009

The Centr group broke up, leaving the members in far from friendly relations. In the footsteps Guf collapse released the video “100 Lines”, quote: “If two ravens are sitting on your shoulders on the left and right sides, alternately pecking at your head, you can continue to pretend that you don’t care.”

Slim and Ptah responded with a clip “Spice baby”, an evil parody of Guf’s hit that was booming at the time (Ptah didn’t read in the song itself, but starred in the video).

Later in an interview with TV Jam Guf speaks, What The reason for the group’s disintegration was “not women or drugs,” but “some kind of envy, money, something else.”“The two participants probably didn’t have enough attention from the public.” Bird's version: this was led to by some mysterious events on June 6, 2009 in Lugansk.

- Autumn 2009

Ptah shows the clip “Old Age,” where he allegorically comments on the breakup of the group. “We need to live more correctly, but I’m sure that you wanted to think, just like me. The fact that TsAO are friends, not just words. That sometimes it's like family for others. I’m not a god, but I forgive you for the pain and intrigue.” The video stars Princip, Guf’s friend, and this can be regarded as trolling.

In an interview with Rap.ru, answering questions about future prospects Centr groups without Guf, Ptah says: I think that new album Centr will still be there. Maybe we can make peace and make it the three of us. Or maybe if we don’t make peace, we’ll make it three of us.”

- Spring 2012

Ptah and Slim came to the air of the “Minaev Live” program- a couple of months after graduation with Aiza and Guf. The question of the collapse of Centr arose here too, Slim and Ptah responded like this: The reason for the breakup of the group is a mythical “situation”.

Quote from Bird: “It was a breakthrough for me. My cap was running then. I personally did not share anything with anyone. There was a moment when it was necessary to take a serious step, which would still have led to the collapse of the group. This is a closed topic, I don’t want to talk about it. Tell true story the collapse of the Centr group is fucked up. I'm not ready for this second wave. There's a lot of dirt, underground stuff. I'm not ready for the second wave of throwing mud at each other. It was the people who perceived Guf as a leader. But we ourselves did not have such a concept - “leader”. I did promotion and PR. Vadim was responsible for the musical component. At that moment Lyosha was hanging around and writing texts.”

Quote from Slim: “The situation that happened then was the last straw. I have a mediocre relationship with her. It seems to me that Guf eventually left because, firstly, he understood that he would be in demand as a solo artist in the same way as in the Centr group. And that's a fact . Secondly, the relations within the group did not completely suit him. All this accumulated in a lumpy way, and eventually a situation arose after which we stopped communicating.”

- Autumn 2014


Centr members finally resolve the conflict.
The group appears on the air “ Evening Urgant” and releases video “Turns”, in the plot of which Slim, Guf and Ptah peacefully come to the studio and eat pizza. Then, however, it turns out that Guf did not star in final scene, where all three go on stage - instead of him there was a double.

Ptah stars with Guf in the video “Killer City”.
Quote from the song: “We have grown up, I am pleased that we managed to stop this swing without loss. Five years later we intelligently resumed communication.”

- June 2016

The album “System” is released, the last in the history of the group - after that it gives farewell concerts and breaks up again. It turns out that Guf is dissatisfied with his verses on the album, according to him, he was given two months to write 15 verses and he wrote them “to fuck off.”

In an interview with LIfe.ru, he also says that he didn't like Bird's reading and his work on stage.“I felt terribly uncomfortable being around this person. Vadik and I expressed complaints to him about the reading and performance of his verses - I was absolutely not satisfied with what he was doing and how he treated the album.”

Bird responds to these claims in an interview with The Flow. “Lyosha started to stress me out because I was partying. I chose a profession for myself so that I can hang out. I don’t think it’s anything terrible to go on stage with a joint and a bottle of whiskey. I'm a rapper. Not a pop artist, not something like that opera singer, I'm a rapper. This is normal for me. And when they try to tell me that I should work specifically... That’s it, as soon as I heard the word “work”, I say: “Okay. I’ll go play music, and you guys work.” We had a huge quarrel over this.”

- May 2017

Guf on the air “vDudya” teases Ptah. According to him, having participated in the Centr reunion, he gave his colleague a chance, but something went wrong.“When Centr broke up for the first time, it was a complex and murky story. Five years have passed and I think: somehow something has changed in people’s heads, probably.<....>We went on tour first with the old Centr program. And on these tours it turned out that I could not be with this person. I love him very much, he is my friend, but in everyday life and on tour it was unbearable.”

Also Guf, answering the question of how he attracts attention beautiful girls, says that you should ask Ptah about this - he has more girls.

- June-July 2017

Ptah releases the track “For the Repose”. There are no direct lines aimed at Guf, but there are veiled hints. In the frame, he crumples a drawing depicting the Disney character Goofy, right on the line “Smile and you will be good. Fuck that you’re an asshole at heart.”

A little later, he gives a fiery interview to the Ren TV channel. Guf’s personal life also becomes a reason for discussion.

Powerful quote: “I think he is a vile, two-faced, materialistic person. And also alphonsite. I've been a gigolo for half my life. He always chose the chick who was not more beautiful, but richer. A vile, two-faced, mercantile person who looks for his own benefit everywhere. I won’t be surprised that he will also sign up with Timati after throwing mud at him.” A couple of weeks later the premiere takes place joint clip Timati and Gufa “Generation”.

One of the brightest rappers in Russia, for whom “conflict” can be called a middle name.

“Patriotism is a clear understanding that this is your land, your family, your friends. It's all behind you. Patriotism is supporting your country.

“In all my time with the Central Administrative District, I have not received anything in terms of earnings. The Central Administrative District never brought any money. Sometimes I even invest money in it to keep it afloat. It is necessary to hire a team of professionals, command them, control the process - and I was not ready for this story. That’s why TsAO is not a label, but a get-together.”

Ptah – Jewelry Brand “Bronnitsky Jeweler”

Early 2018 it became known that Bird became a representative of a jewelry brand “Bronnitsky Jeweler”.

On Tuesday, February 6, the 1703 bar hosted battle Versus rappers Guf (Alexey Dolmatov) and Ptakhi (David Nuriev). For participation, Guf asked for 2 million rubles, Ptah - 1 million. These are one of the largest fees in Russian battle rap. The results of the battle have not yet been officially announced.

In the 2000s, Guf and Ptakha were part of the Centr group and wrote tracks together. When Guf left the group, the rappers began to release diss songs against each other and talk about the breakup in interviews. In 2014 they united again and again - this time finally - separated.

"Paper" tells the backstory of one of the most expensive and anticipated rap battles, which the host of Versus Restaurateur calls “a battle about nothing,” some viewers call it “a deal,” and others call it “one of the oldest conflicts in Russian rap.”

Guf and Ptah have known each other since 2000. They quarreled after Guf left their common group

Rappers Guf and Ptah met on the set clip group "Casta" "We take it on the streets." How their relationship developed at that time is not known for certain. In 2007, as part of the Centr group, they released the album “Swing,” which tells about life and experience of using hard drugs.

At that time, the group, considered underground, became popular throughout Russia: in 2007–2009, rappers gathered venues of 4–5 thousand people in Moscow, won MTV Russia 2008 in the “Hip-Hop” category and released two albums and five clips.

Unexpectedly for fans, in August 2009, Dolmatov announced his departure from the group and gave interview, in which he explained this by saying that “the two participants probably did not have enough attention, the public” and they were guided by “some kind of envy, money, something else.” By official version, the reason for the artist’s departure was “the events of June 6, 2009 in Lugansk” - there are still rumors among fans about what happened then. Later, Guf will only say that on that day “a boiling point was reached within the group,” and Ptah will refuse to explain anything, “fearing for Guf’s moral and mental health.”

The video was filmed after Guf left the group. Dolmatov did not meet either Ptah or Slim during filming

Soon Guf published clip “100 lines”, where he compared former members groups with “two crows pecking at your head.” In response to this, Ptah and Slim (another member of the Centr group) released Spice Baby video - a parody of hit(only one of the uploaded videos on YouTube has more than 3.5 million views) Guf Ice Baby, which he dedicated to his wife.

After this, the artists practically did not remember the conflict either in interviews or in tracks. Guf was actively involved solo career, and Ptah and Slim - by the group Centr.

In 2014, the rappers reconciled and began performing at Centr again. But they had a fight two years later

As Guf explained in an interview with Life his reconciliation with Ptakha, the latter called him in the fall of 2014 “to support him after his divorce from his wife.” According to Dolmatov, this touched him, and they made peace. Soon Guf again joined the Centr group.

From 2014 to 2016, they released an album together, which immediately entered the top iTunes, published two videos and gave more than 20 concerts. Concert activities The group was interrupted when Guf and Slim were detained during a Federal Drug Control Service operation after their concert and sentenced to five and six days of arrest, respectively, for drug use.

On April 30, 2016, the group gave its last scheduled concert and, unexpectedly for fans, announced its final breakup.

It later turned out that Guf was the initiator of the breakup: he explained that he did not like his own verses on the album, which the rapper, according to him, was given two weeks to prepare. He also added that he could not work well with Ptah. “Vadik (Slim) and I - approx. "Papers") expressed to him (Ptah - approx. "Papers") claims regarding the reading and performance of his verses. I was absolutely not happy with what he was doing and how he treated the album,” said Guf.

Ptah said that it was he who could not work well with Guf:

Lesha started to stress me out because I was partying. I chose a profession for myself so that I can hang out. I don’t think it’s anything terrible to go on stage with a joint and a bottle of whiskey. I'm a rapper. And when they try to tell me that I should work specifically... That’s it, as soon as I heard the word “work,” I said: “Okay. I’ll go play music, and you guys work.” We had a huge quarrel over this.

Later, Guf in an interview on the “vDud” program spoke about Ptah as “a friend with whom it was unbearable in everyday life and on tour,” and Ptah, in an interview with Ren TV, called Guf “a vile, two-faced person, mercantile, and also a gigolo.”

In 2017, the rappers agreed to a battle. The restaurateur decided to spend 3 million rubles on it

In September 2017, rapper Ptah on the YouTube channel of the TsAO Records label
