MyRoots

Born in Tokyo and taken to Moscow at the age of two, St. George Kulikov grew up under the midnight sun-
days spent playing at VDNH, watching his mother exchange dollars and rubles on the street,
police armed with AKs, the chaos surrounding the collapse of the Soviet Union,
and tanks rumbling past his home as if it were part of everyday life.

"My Roots" is a work that refuses to look away from that reality.
It fires back at society from the very side labeled as "the scum of society,"
etching the true origins-the roots-of St. George Kulikov.

After returning to Tokyo, he fell into truancy, crime with his friends,
and years of surviving the violent swings of bipolar disorder.
Yet despite everything, rap and music never betrayed him.

Carrying both Moscow and Tokyo as his two homelands,
holding loneliness, anger, and a fragile hope,
he carves into the mic the very reason he is still alive today.
