With contagious hooks and longing vocals, singer-songwriter Ramil’ is part of a generation of artists re-energising Russian pop. Heavily inspired by hip-hop and R&B, he fills his songs with slow-rolling beats and hypnotic bass woven around resonant, heart-stirring choruses. His music is personal yet accessible, with painfully romantic and deeply reflective themes. Meanwhile, several collaborations have also pushed Ramil’ towards club-oriented sounds—including tracks with Elena Temnikova and 10AGE.
