Video blogger Yuri Khovansky: biography, activities, personal life. Khovansky versus Afoni: how an alcoholic of a major exposed from what city Khovansky

Videos with his participation often bypass the audience of some of Channel One's programs in terms of popularity. He loves a strong word and no less strong alcohol. One of the first Russian stand-up artists and a scandalous rapper bideo blogger. You still don't know who Khovansky is? Then you should get to know him better.

Early biography of "Hovan"

A significant part of the top YouTube video bloggers were born in the deep province. Yuri Khovansky was no exception to this rule. His small homeland is a small town Nikolsk that on the Volga region.

The guy's young years were not distinguished by the richness of events:

• Like all the boys in the yard, he was fond of football. During the game, he most often occupied the position of the goalkeeper;
• He was fond of not only street games, but also virtual online games;
• For a short time, her interests included music. The lack of education in this area compensated for the remarkable tenacity. When Yura turned 14, he already owned a bass guitar and performed in a school rock band;
• Due to the huge variety of hobbies, there was not enough time for study. This became the cause of many life problems in the following years;
• As soon as the young man left school, his parents insisted on entering the prestigious INZHEKON university, located in the Northern capital. But the passing score turned out to be too high, and this idea had to be abandoned;
• Desperate, the guy decided to try himself in the field of programming, but even then he did not have any success.

MS Khovansky: who is this?

Before getting the prefix "MC", the guy had to go through many ordeals. It is almost impossible to get a normal job in Russia without a higher education diploma.

In search of a place in life, I had to change a lot of jobs:

• Handyman at a construction site;
• Self-service store cashier;
• A waiter in a small establishment;
• Courier delivery officer;
• Telephone support operator.

Low-paid work and lack of prospects forced Yura to turn his attention to the rapidly developing Internet market in the country. In himself, as a programmer and site builder, he had already managed to be disappointed.

Hope was given by the video blogging segment on the video hosting site YouTube in 2010, where everyone performed in the genre of “his own director”. Hundreds of thousands of views guaranteed a very impressive income.

Khovansky decided to try his hand at shooting videos in September 2011. Since then, his channel has gained one and a half million views, and the blogger himself has been named one of the most successful in the Russian-speaking segment.

Opening of the project "Russian Stand-up"

As of the early 2010s, the country's stand-up market was an unpaved field. It was divided almost in half by the so-called "humorists" from the theater of Yevgeny Petrosyan and experts on vulgar humor from the "Comedy Club". The former served people of retirement age, the latter served a younger audience.

The poor quality of television humor prompted Yuri to open your channel :

• Initially, the lion's share of the content on it was made up of videos of foreign comedians in amateur translation;
• After a while, Khovansky decided to try himself in the genre of musical comedy. Here the experience of a guitarist in his teenage years came in handy. The numbers of "That guy with the guitar" became popular with the audience;
• The turning point in his career was his acquaintance with Ilya Maddison. The famous video blogger drew attention to a promising stand-up artist, promoted him through his channels and gave him a job on his own radio Maddyson.FM;
• This is how the idea of ​​creating the "Russian Stand-up" project was born. Yura, in his characteristic expressive manner, spoke harshly on acute social and personal problems;
• The show survived 4 seasons, but in 2015 it was unexpectedly announced that it would stop broadcasting.

Where does Khovansky live?

Having taken place as a video blogger, he began to earn very decent money. There is no exact data on his income, but according to unofficial information, top YouTubers make from 3 to 7 thousand rubles a day. The possession of such funds allowed a native of a deep province to securely settle in St. Petersburg.

If at the dawn of his career a blogger huddled in a modest communal apartment, today he lives in a new building on Vasilievsky Island:

• He officially presented his new home to his subscribers back in 2014. He noted that there is still a lot of time to be spent on repairs;
• According to Khovanskiy, the apartment has five rooms, electric underfloor heating, climate control, ventilation and a minibar. Possession of such wealth is quite possible only if your salary is 10 times higher than the national average;
• In 2015, he again released a video about his apartment, where he showed off a brand new Jacuzzi.

The specific manner of filming videos about his home is criticized by ill-wishers. So, Larin once said that Khovansky lived as if in a door store.

Musical creativity in the style of rap

Reading simple poems with recitative, called rap, attracts many young people. The main reason for this popularity is low entry threshold... Almost anyone can master this type of activity. You don't need to have a countertenor or know Rachmaninoff's scales. Just a cool beat, a microphone and self-confidence.

After officially leaving stand-up, Yuri decided to release his own Guf outside and began to record music (often parody) videos:

• He began to earn points of popularity by demonstratively insulting other Russian-speaking rappers;
• Freestyler Noize MC was the first to hit him. In October 2016, Yuri released his debut track, in which he confessed to hate this performer;
• Oxxxymiron stood up for his colleague in the shop, who recommended that the beginner give up parodies;
• In response, Khovansky released another video, in which he jokingly declared his deep remorse and asked for forgiveness from the musical party;
• After that, he began to release provocative compositions with renewed vigor.

Why doesn't Khovansky love Larin?

Russian "YouTube" is rich in brawlers. One of them is Dmitry Larin, who has been in conflict with his colleagues for a very long time in order to attract attention to his own person. And at one point he came across his competitor, who was playing on the same field.

Larin and Khovansky decided to sort things out at the Versus site, a typical place for verbal rap skirmishes.

The battle took place in 2016 and became one of the most popular in the history of video blogging, gaining more than 25 million views (video at the end of the article):

• Larin compared his opponent to Modest from the Gorodok program;
• He drew the attention of the crowd to his provincial background and shrill, almost feminine voice;
• His tirade ended with a comparison of Yura with a sphincter;
• He did not remain in debt and began to parody Dmitry's burr. Khovansky devoted ten verses to the discussion of other people's speech defects;
• Summing it up, he noted that the last interesting Larin was the hero of "Streets of Broken Lanterns."

Jury awarded the victory to Yuri.

Zhvanetsky once lamented that, having found himself at the peak of popularity through many years of effort, he was surprised to find that there was an elevator on the other side. A few years ago, no one knew who Khovansky was. But as soon as a loner insulted a couple of famous people - and now he is at the top of Olympus. This is the reality of modern Runet.

Battle of Khovansky with Larin (video)

In the ring: Andrey Afonin, presenter of the Afonya TV channel and Yuri Khovansky, a well-known Internet provocateur (at the same time an expert on shawarma, scourge packages, "pyramids" and booze). For a long time, the sides threw mud at each other, in August the war reached its climax, by September it entered its final stage and ended safely a couple of weeks ago. Life figured out what Afonya and Khovansky did not share and why millions watched their skirmishes.

Afonya

The first participant, Andrei Afonin (aka Afonya), is a young man from Moscow. " I am 26 years old, my name is Andrey. As a child, I represented my 26 in a Lamborghini, but, unfortunately, fate turned its back on me and I drive an Audi TT", - the hero tells about himself in the description on the channel. It is no coincidence that Andrei indicates the name of the car brand: his second-hand Audi is a full-fledged co-author of most of the works, the second main character after Afoni himself.

He posted the first video in July 2014 - it was a prank. The guy pretended to be a homeless person and defiantly rolled on the hood of his car, recording the reaction of those around him. She followed - and not only those around her, but also the audience. As a result: almost two million views, initial hundreds and thousands of subscribers. Afonya took a break of six months.

The next video was released in February 2015 and was called "Beauty fell for the car"... In an unpretentious three minutes, Andrei met a girl - she rejected, referring to the guy. But as soon as the pranker jumped into a nearby TT, the young lady changed her mind and tried to get into a sports car. The boy laughed finely, showing his middle finger, and, shouting something obscene, rolled into the distance. The video hit the very heart of the audience's aspirations - in the comments, hundreds of young people rejoiced at the exposure of the "whore" and shared their views on the fall of modern women.

The blogger realized that he had hit the public nerve and decided not to stop. The main popularity was brought by the series "Beauty held on to the last": the truth-teller put unfamiliar girls in the car, drove around the city with them, each time portraying some kind of image: a mad farmer, an irrepressible vaper or a bore obsessed with games.

The second wave of popularity was brought to him by the disclosures of partners in the workshop - Andrei studied the work of his colleagues, analyzed it and proved that the pranks were staged. Superemotionality, bordering on hysteria, grew into a role - in the most agitated state, Afonya turned into a male version of the streamer Karina. Expression helped the citizen not only to gain subscribers, but also to do what seemed impossible - to repulse ill-wishers on the Russia 1 TV channel.

As a result, in less than a year of active Internet activity, Andrey gained a little more than a million audience - these are very serious indicators even for YouTube veterans. Among newcomers, Afonya has long been considered the fastest growing blogger. And it was he who, on the eve of summer, had a falling out with Khovansky ...

Khovansky

There is no point in describing the second participant in detail: if you go to YouTube at least once a month, then you have probably heard about Khovanskiy. Yuri began his career in 2010 by dubbing Western stand-up comedians: Louis CK's "specials" are still walking on the Web, where the famous comedian broadcasts in the voice of a future Internet star. Khovansky gained his first popularity while working with the once king of video blogging, Madisson.

A little later, the realization came: scandals accumulate attention around his controversial person no less than fresh videos.

He consistently got involved in a fight with Drug Addict Pavlik, fans of the "KiSh" group, rapper Christina Si, the threat of beer cans Stas Baretsky, Noize MC and video blogger Larin.

In parallel, there were thousands of activities: from an in-depth review of St. Petersburg shawarma shops to game letsplay and advertising of financial pyramids. This led to the fact that by the beginning of the war with Athos, almost one and a half million people subscribed to Yuri. It is worth noting: all the time that YouTube tolerates the blogger, Khovansky has been exploiting (it seems close to reality) the image of a marginal alcoholic who despises any taboos and prohibitions.

The gunpowder stocks of two YouTube millionaires burst into flames, as is customary, due to a series of accidents. On April 5, on the sparsely populated Reacts channel, a record "YouTubers' reactions to Versus Battle - Khovansky vs Larin" surfaced - eight bloggers, including Afonya, discussed the battle that blew up the Runet... Andrei noted that Khovansky held himself confidently and won due to expression:

Everything on emotions, all the show on emotions, it is possible even without rhyme

Andrey Afonin about Khovansky's performance

In the end, he admitted that Yura was not looking and had heard about him only because of a conflict with musician Ivan Alekseev:

The only thing I know about Khovansky is that Noize MC [broke] him, and I think he [broke] on business

Andrey Afonin about Khovansky

This video ends, and in a perfect world there would be no sequel. But Khovansky is not the kind of person who will miss the opportunity to set fire to the information space around him. He rolled out a parody on Athos.

"Visiting Khovansky" is a series of videos where Internet celebrities allegedly come to Yuri, who are usually played by a friend of the blogger nicknamed Kuzma. Before Andrei, Firamir, who was killed on the air, "looked" to Yuri, whose unmotivated snotting was reliably depicted by the same Kuzma. Afonya appeared in the video as a hysterical paranoid with the only goal in life - to expose as many YouTubers as possible. The parody can hardly be called successful (it is inferior, for example, the last episode with Nikolai Sobolev ). Perhaps that is why Andrei did not react to the release in any way. But the main squabbler of Russian YouTube did not calm down and a month later he again ridiculed the enemy - this time hitting the bull's-eye.

Here the pranker is portrayed by Khovansky himself - with an emphasized false mustache and beard. The themes are pedalized all the same - an irrepressible desire to expose everyone in a row: even the street magician and the tabloids get it. The video is much tougher than the first one: at some point, the disguised Khovansky gets into the car, where he imitates orogenital contact - to immediately accuse the driver of non-traditional sexual orientation.

Athos could not forgive this, and two days later he improvised "condemned" Khovansky. In the video, he first expressively comments on the parody, and then, disguised as a British judge, sentenced his opponent to dislikes. The video ends with an unsuccessful parody of Khovansky: the blogger allegedly jumps into the urine bath in order to return to the past, thus avoiding conflict with Andrey. The war has begun.

The first losses - virtual, but image-related - the gentlemen suffered immediately: an avalanche of dislikes fell on the second parody of Khovansky - more than 30 thousand at once. Now the ratio of green to red is about the same. Andriy also suffered - more than 100 thousand negative assessments were given to the "court" video. Later, Khovansky assured that his videos were minus not real users, but purchased bots:

A botman I know told me that someone in Russian YouTube bought 30 thousand dislikes on someone else's channel - well, I looked, nowhere else did it pop up so much

Yuri Khovansky about cheating dislikes

After exchanging warning volleys of artillery, the bloggers entered the second phase of the offensive. Afonya tried to separate Khovansky into battle. Yuri, in turn, parried with a call to VersusBattle - an independent platform where participants exchange rhymed insults. Afonya already refused here - as the rap party unanimously decided, that's right.

After unsuccessful calls to the ring, the pranker complained during the broadcast in Periscope that the dislikes dumped on Khovansky did not bring satisfaction and it was time to move on to more harsh methods:

I will make it so that his channel is closed. If dislikes do not help, we will be different, then

Andrey Afonin about the Khovansky canal

The most effective way to forcefully close someone's channel is to shower him with complaints aka strikes. If the author receives three strikes within six months and cannot challenge them, the channel will be removed. In a crowd of video bloggers, it is not customary to resort to such measures - this is maximally condemned by the community. Therefore, according to the opinion of the founder of Rakamakafo Nikolai Sobolev, hinting at strikes, Afonya set a part of the audience against him.

Khovansky reacted instantly - on July 18, an interesting parody of "Game of Thrones" was released, where the blogger acted in the guise of Greyjoy, King of the Iron Islands. Yuri called on his army of "iron-born" to swear allegiance to the Drowned God (that is, subscribe and like) and rally against Afoni TV.

A couple of days later, Andrey responded - also in the style of the HBO television series. Athos, however, the material was more difficult: He wittily joked that Khovansky had his penis cut off (one of the Greyjoys really survived this operation), but otherwise he performed poorly. A little later, he deleted the entry, and explained on the VKontakte social network that he simply wanted to provoke his opponent.

Khovansky sensed a weakness and soon began to bang with an atomic bomb - on July 31, he threw in a half-hour analysis of the Afonya TV channel, proving that the famous pranks with the participation of a yellow foreign car were a common production. The video has collected 2.5 million views, hitting the top 6 posts on the blogger's channel.

The accusation of staging among Russian pranksters is a serious matter. It's as if a famous documentary photographer was caught directing the pictures. On October 1, 2015, long before the conflict, Afonya had already tore off the mask from the CheburussiaTV prank channel, which led to large image losses for its owners - the guys were never able to gain a million subscribers, despite a bright start. Now a shadow of doubt flashed over Andrei himself.

Khovansky had few arguments: a snow-white camera reflected in Afoni's glasses, some "beauties" with a serial past and editing with numerous glues. The first point - Sony action cameras - has the most talk: they say, how girls don't see a lens directed directly into their faces. One of the YouTubers conducted an experiment by filming what a Sony device looks like through the eyes of a passenger. Indeed, it's hard not to notice.

This argument, however, was criticized by Nikolai Sobolev, the first famous Russian pranker. He noted that people sometimes do not notice professional cameras at close range - what can we say about a small camcorder that looks like a video recorder. However, the founder of Rakamakafo said that Afoni has productions - and Nikolai feels them "asshole." Sobolev did not provide any direct evidence, finally saying that it is difficult to shoot such a format:

Many factors must coincide. There must be a good, lively girl. She must not know Athos. She must be so [weird] that she can ride with him for an hour and not get out of the car. Finally, with all this, she should not notice the camera at close range. Or it's easier for Andrey to find an actress, pay her money and force her to sign a non-disclosure agreement

Nikolay Sobolev, pranker and founder of Rakamakafo

In general, even without irrefutable arguments against Afoni, the general public believed that his videos with girls were fake. Khovansky took advantage of this advantage, slapping a fat point in the war on October 7. Yuri again pulled his trump card from his sleeve - the talent of a parodist and stylized the defeat of Afoni under the famous video with Hitler.

In the video, the former king of prank and the owner of the fastest growing channel in the Russian segment of YouTube appears as a defeated loser. Apparently, this is not far from the truth, because Afonya really retreated - he left Khovansky alone, switching to Sobolev, who had pecked him.

Literally on the eve of the publication of our material, Afonya made another prank - from the same series of "Beauties". The recording was released only on October 20, but has already collected 65 thousand dislikes - all because the staging of the video was so obvious that even Andrey's fans suspected that something was wrong. The girl, over whom Afonya mocked in the guise of an insane native of Kazakhstan, changed her clothes several times, reacted falsely to the attacks of the prankster, did not notice the passenger hidden behind the carpet in the back row, and cast a sly glance at the camera countless times. In addition, the beauty's background was quickly revealed - viewers found a video where the girl dances completely naked.

To uninitiated people it will seem that the topic itself is empty - well, two media persons quarreled (it is possible that by mutual, if not agreement, then pleasure), what's wrong with that. In fact, everything is somewhat more complicated.

The fact is that the battle instantly acquired an ideological color. Afonya called himself a "forest orderly", stating that he fights with Khovansky not because of a sense of dignity and ratings, but for the sake of a higher mission - to bring a drunkard, a loafer and a parasite out into the open. " He's got a lot of alcohol propaganda ", - Andrey complains in one of the videos. And, of course, he is right - it is hardly worthwhile for children to write Khovansky as role models, and his shows often cross the line. From the outside, it seems that Afonya is a kind of knight of morality, a brave and unyielding fighter for truth, who is trying to make the world a better place by exposing everyone: alcoholic bloggers, materialistic women, directors. A noble task crashing into reality, after all, Afoni also has a video where he whips shots, drags around bars and tries to give urine to an unfamiliar girl.

As a result, almost a metaphor of a certain public mood pours out of the everyday conflict between the two bloggers - a wealthy young man with a good figure, a beautiful car and healthy lifestyle habits is trying to reason with a rude and cheeky provincial alcoholic. True, the first sins are no less than the second, and the second is at least honest with himself and those around him - and you can spend a whole day (or even your whole life) thinking about who you should listen to.

Yuri Khovansky is a popular Russian video blogger and stand-up comedian from St. Petersburg with scandalous fame. He runs his own YouTube channel called "Russian Stand-up".

The young man acts as a director, screenwriter and let-player.

Childhood of Yuri Khovansky

Yuri Khovansky was born on January 19, 1990 in the city of Nikolsk, located in the Penza region. He grew up as an ordinary boy - he loved football and computer games. As a teenager, Yura became interested in playing the bass guitar, was a member of several amateur rock bands.

After graduating from school, he followed the lead of his parents and tried to enter the Engineering and Economics Institute in St. Petersburg, but unsuccessfully. Khovansky began to study to be a programmer, but he quickly realized that he was not interested in numbers and algorithms. The young man worked as a courier, waiter, call center employee, and later he graduated from the St. Petersburg State University of Economics with honors.

Career of Yuri Khovansky

Work in his specialty did not attract Yuri. He achieved fame, success and material well-being thanks to virtual reality.

In 2011, Khovansky started his own vlog (short for "video blog") on YouTube, posting videos of foreign stand-up comedians in his translation. There also appeared videos "That guy with a guitar", in which Khovansky performed his songs, often humorous.

After that, he was spotted by Ilya Maddison, a famous video blogger and video game reviewer. It was he who gave Khovansky the idea to shoot his own humorous videos. This is how the debut project "Russian Stand-up" appeared. An aspiring showman, in a harsh and sometimes cynical form, shared his thoughts and reflections on various aspects of life with the audience.

Although the blogger in his speeches often crossed the line of generally accepted morality, his show was lively and emotional, so it quickly gained popularity. However, after the release of four seasons, Khovansky lost interest in the show and froze the project. Instead, new programs appeared with varying degrees of popularity.

Yuri Khovansky and his project "Drunken Yards"

The showman has the following projects in his anamnesis: "[standing]", "Lex Play", "Russian Drink Time", "ZADROT-TV", "Shaverma-Patrol", "Asked for", "Big smoking pile of sketches" and a number of other extravagant beginnings like guitar lessons and survival lessons for a thousand rubles a week. And in 2014, the blogger became a judge in the popular rap battle "Versus".

Personal life of Yuri Khovansky

The scandalous video blogger does not advertise his personal life, and therefore both fans and opponents of his work can only speculate about the lady of the heart Khovansky. But in social networks, Yuri has the status "not married".

The showman does not hide that he is a lover of alcoholic beverages, moreover, from his youth. Once he said that in the past he could drink up to eight liters of foam, but since then he has given up badly.

On July 20, 2012, a message appeared on Khovansky's VKontakte page that he had died. The information was confirmed by Maddison, but by the evening it became clear that it was he who was the author of this joke.

Yuri loves the My Little Pony animated series and even took part in alternative amateur voice acting for three characters at once.

In 2014, he launched an online petition calling for Senator Elena Mizulina to be sent for a mandatory mental health check. 116 thousand people signed the document.

Scandals of Yuri Khovansky

Although Yuri has a very non-contentious nature, he has quite a few real enemies, including rapper Noize MC. Khovansky has repeatedly spoken out about his work in a negative way, and in September 2014, during the filming of the next "Versus", he pounced on the blogger with fists.

In 2016, the showman decided to try his hand at rap. The debut composition "Dad in the Building" from the five-track mini-album immediately received public recognition and earned several million views on YouTube. Along the way, Khovansky once again offended Noize MC with the line "Bomzhara Noize saw the battle and obsessed his cardboard". Following Yuri released the track "Noise", in which he again "attached" the rapper.

MC Khovansky - Dad in the Building

At some point, the reputable rapper Oksimiron stood up for Noize MC, saying that "Khovansky was playing too." Khovansky's song with apologies "Forgive me, Oksimiron" was not long in coming - he presented it on December 28, 2016.

The blogger also had a conflict with Christina Si, a pupil of Timati's music label. In her twitter, she called Khovansky an alcoholic and was outraged that he was judging Versus. Khovansky did not remain in debt. The result of their skirmish was Christina's clip "Yurik", dedicated to Khovansky, in which the girl called the blogger "a failed comedian, a lover of other people's mothers."

Khovansky has another "personal enemy" - blogger Dmitry Larin. “Someone Larin appeared, began to teach everyone: how funny it is to joke, how to make videos, how to stand up. Such a devil, an upstart, "- this is how Yuri spoke about him.

In March 2016, they faced off on the Versus site, and Khovansky won. This issue has become one of the most popular in the entire history of the project.

Yuri Khovansky now

In the spring of 2017, Yuri Khovansky, together with vlogger Nikolai Sobolev, presented the track "Beer Drinks" - a parody of the sensational video "The Ice is Melting" by the Mushrooms group.

MC Khovansky - Drinks beer ("Ice Melts" gr. Mushrooms)

At the same time, he recorded another parody track - "Superwaper", a remix of the 2016 hit "Patimaker".

One of the most scandalous video bloggers, YouTube "gangster" Yuri Khovansky was born on January 19, 1990 in Penza. According to the horoscope, he is a Capricorn with a rather complex character. Height 182 cm, weight about 85 kg.

Khovansky appeared on YouTube around 2010. At first he translated into Russian the performances of foreign comedians, later he began to record songs with a guitar under the pseudonym "That guy with a guitar." It was only in September 2011 that Yuri launched a serious project “Russian Stand-up” on the advice of one of his comrades. The show did not gain popularity for a long time until his friend Ilya Maddison came to the blogger's aid.

In 2014, Yuri graduated with honors from the State University of Economics in St. Petersburg. Before working on his own channel, he managed to test himself in various professions from promoter to waiter. Today, the YouTube channel is the main source of income for Khovansky, with almost 3 million subscribers. In addition to numerous projects, Yuri released his own little rap album "My Gangsta". A new army of fans appeared at Khovansky after the release of his Versus with Dmitry Larin, in which Yuri won a landslide victory.

Nothing is known about the personal life of the popular video blogger. He does not tell subscribers about his relationship, but it is known for sure that he is not married.

Khovansky has pages on all the most famous Internet resources:

A lot can be said about the biography of Yura Khovansky, since he is a popular video blogger, comedian, stand-up artist, rapper and so on.

Namely, he was one of the first to show that even bloggers who have never been involved in this can get into the rap industry. In addition to his video work, he is known for his scandals, for example, with Kalashnikov, Timati, Christina Si, Noise MC, and so on.

But, he has a 3 million army of fans, which constantly supports him. In this article, we will figure out who this very popular blogger really is.

Biography and career of Yuri Khovansky

At the end of 2011, this blog was created in order to publish various parodies, funny stories. But, then, Yuri's popularity became more and more.

But, at the beginning, the path was not so great, because Yuri needed to make money, sound cartoons, translate various shows from English, and publish blogs on Internet radio.

But, at the age of 11, he started on his already Youtube channel to declare himself. In this he was helped by Ilya Maddison, who was popular at that time, who added popularity to the guy.

The channel's audience grew, but not so quickly, and Yura began to arrange various scandals so that more and more people would know about him. Probably, now, many people associate Yuri Khovansky with rap and scandals, and not as a popular video blogger.

The guy himself has repeatedly said that he does not care about popularity, the main thing for him is to do what he loves, not to go to work and earn decent money.

Yes, in order to gain popularity I had to get involved in fights, scandal with more eminent rappers, but this is all in the name of the good cause of "hype".

The most popular were the following videos of Yura:

• "Forgive me Miron"
• "Dad in the building"
• "Ask your mom"
• "Men in blog"

And in them, oddly enough, there is nothing from blogging, these are popular songs, in the style of rap. By the way, in 2017, Yuri's mini-album was released, which is called "My Gensta", you can download it on the Internet.

How much does Khovanskiy earn

At the moment, the popularity of the blogger is beyond doubt. The channel statistics are simply off scale, the following figures demonstrate this.

Youtube channel statistics:

• 3 million subscribers subscribed;
• there is a second channel with 600 thousand subscribers;
• channel rating A-;
• over the last month, 60 thousand new subscriber came;
• more than half a million people watch it every day.

It is thanks to such indicators that a blogger can earn very substantial money. According to the Social Blade, Yura earns from 5 thousand dollars a month. But, in addition, he has a second live channel, which also brings money.

In addition, he often streams on Twitch and there on donations, he also receives impressive sums. For example, on New Year's Eve he was able to earn almost a million rubles with donations, and this is just 5-6 hours of stream.

As he himself said, he collects Gelentvagen for a car, which many associate with rap, coolness. It can be concluded that Hova, as he often calls himself, earns over $ 8,000 a month.

Scandals and criticism of Khovansky

Because of his nature, as well as his addiction to beer, Yuri got into scandalous situations many times where he was beaten on the face.

For example, the first such situation was that Yuri released a video message to Christina Si, where he called her not rap, and then invited her to the versus battle. The girl shot a video in which she refused to rap battle.

Then, according to Khovansky, near the entrance of his house, he was severely beaten, he claims that it was on a tip from "Black Star", but nothing has been proven.

A little later, he got into a versus fight with Noise MC, which left Yura with a black eye. Yuri spoke very badly about Noise, therefore, many supported the rapper's position.

The scandal between him and Larin passed more calmly, with whom they decided to fight in a versus battle. The winner was Yuri, who read brighter, better and more beautiful.

Well, the last scandal happened with Kalashnikov, who with his friend was waiting for Yuri to beat or threaten. It all ended with Khovansky telling his fellow bloggers about this and, as a result, the case was hushed up.

Conclusion

Well, well, probably, no one will argue with the fact that Yuri Khovansky is a bright and talented person. But, constant "skirmishes" with others can seriously harm him in terms of audience churn.

Nevertheless, the blogger's biography deserves to be talked about, because there is more beautiful, funny and funny in it than some scandals and fights.
