Tony Routh loves to rap, and he likes to write lyrics on the basis of musical compositions from horror films. His music is saturated with a feeling of hatred, but at the same time it is lively and sincere, constantly attracting an incredible number of fans. The image of an evil clown
The artist does not hesitate to use quite shocking images in the process of creating his clips. His favorite way to intimidate fans and inflict horror on them is to use scleral lenses in an image. They allow him to transform into a frightening monster. Tony also likes to use the image of an evil clown in his work, which is more reminiscent of the Joker from films about Batman. Today, his army of fans is only growing, many of them perceive his images with enthusiasm, and admire the creativity.
Childhood
The future rapper was born on September 8, 1990 in St. Petersburg, in the family he was the second child. Mom constantly disappeared at work, took her to the position of educator, and for a modest wage. I had to raise my sons myself, as my husband left her alone with the children. Tony often recalls a difficult childhood, full of adversity and difficulties.
If we talk about youth, Tony really liked the songs of the group called "King and the Jester", as well as "Gaza" and the rock band called "Alice". After some time, on television, he saw the work of one famous artist of literally all times - Tupac Shakur. The young Tony was fond of the creativity of this rapper with his brother. They gradually bought up his albums, and then ventured to do creative work on their own. We had to record rap on an old tape recorder.
Some time after graduation, the young man decided to continue his education and entered the Electromechanical College. But due to poor performance, he was simply expelled. The young man tried to study at St. Petersburg State University, but he also failed to finally complete his studies.
Artist career
A young Petersburger entered the big stage relatively early. To begin with, he decided to place several works on the network under the interesting pseudonym Tony Rout. They were unusual, impudent, at the same time sincere and very vital. The young performer, apparently, chose a pseudonym from a derivative of his own real name. It should be recalled that the "rout" is translated from English as a "reception".
In 2009, Tony, along with his best friend Harry Ax, constantly began performing in various clubs, and then took part in a delightful project called InDaBattle, in which he decided to show everyone his bright personality.
The tracks of the artist are rather ironic, filled with heavy personal experiences and memories. At the moment, many admire the work of the young artist. The fans most praised the track called "Sweet Dreams", which he performed together in Sadistic.
Also, many love the composition, which was called "The Circus Left, Clowns Remained." The young rapper demonstrated a high level of skill at his concert in Minsk. The audience simply went on a rampage and constantly went into a real gap, and the stage itself was almost blown away by amazing energy.
