Interview
— Alexander, what inspires you to create new works?
Inspiration is a subtle and changeable matter. Sometimes it comes from travels, meetings, events, or ordinary people. Sometimes a new song is born on the road, while working on a poem can stretch out for months. Inspiration can appear when you give yourself a creative challenge — like an intellectual workout.
For me, creativity is not just an inner impulse, but also work that requires discipline, logic, and meaning. The most important thing is that the result resonates not just with me, but with others as well.
— Which moments in your career would you consider your greatest achievements?
To be honest, I’m not used to marking milestones or ticking boxes. I’m glad for every day, every listener, every new subscriber or viewer. The greatest achievement is the connection with people: when, after a concert, someone comes up and says, «Thank you, this was exactly what I needed». That’s what makes it all worthwhile.
— What are you working on now? Are there any new projects?
Of course, there are always lots of ideas. I continue concerts, traveling, and working on documentary projects. My new book «Dobrostishie» will be released soon — it’s aimed at schoolchildren and will be presented at various venues, including in the newly returned territories.
At the same time, I’m preparing new songs and duets, with releases planned closer to autumn. For now, it’s summer, tours, and live communication with the audience.
— What message would you like to send to our readers?
«Enjoy life and share this joy with those around you. Don’t forget to help those who need support — your heart will always tell you where it’s important. Call your parents more often, talk to your loved ones, and don’t lock yourself away. Develop your talents — not just for profit, but for your inner light and the benefit of others»
— Does modern fashion and cultural trends inspire you?
Of course, trends and fashion influence creativity, even if we don’t realize it. There is always the desire for your works to be relevant for people today, to respond to their needs and emotions. But the main thing is to stay true to yourself and create from the heart what really matters.
— How do you choose your style for public appearances?
Style depends on the venue, mood, and the audience’s expectations. The location matters: from formal halls to outdoor performances — everywhere you want to look dignified, but without excessive flamboyance. For me, the main thing is harmony between appearance and the substance of the performance.
— Do you have any favorite brands or designers?
I’m rather restrained when it comes to clothing. The main things are comfort, quality, and practicality. If something is «yours», you know it right away. I don’t chase brands, but I respect craftsmanship and individuality.
— Your activities cover different fields — how do you combine and promote your projects?
I don’t have a strict business plan. The main thing is for creativity to bring joy and benefit, sometimes the commercial side moves to the background. Everything is united by sincerity: I try not to stand still, respond to invitations, and choose priorities that are close to my heart. The secret is to keep moving — just like in sports.
— What would you advise young creative people?
Be persistent, don’t give up at the first obstacles. Put your energy in, learn from the best, but don’t forget about your own originality. Patience and hard work will definitely bear fruit. Most importantly — don’t compare yourself to others and follow
