EtoLubov is a new star of the Ukrainian pop industry. She is called the muse of the talented Alan Badoev. Self-presentation from EtoLubov looks like this:
“My love with music is endless. She comes from childhood. With her, I recognize my feminine essence and share it with my audience. Finally I found a balance. The time has come when I will speak to people in the language of music.”
Childhood and youth
Under the creative pseudonym EtoLubov, the name of a talented girl, Lyuba Fomenko, is “hiding”. The future star was born in 1990 on the territory of sunny Odessa. For this period of time, the artist does not live there, but classifies her hometown as one of the most beloved places in Ukraine.
Music often sounded in Lyuba's house. The fact is that her sister's husband had a musical education. He owned several musical instruments. Soon the time came when the girl caught fire with the desire to play music.
She begged her parents to buy her a piano. Mom and dad, who tried to support their daughter's undertakings, fulfilled her whim. Another "trick" of Lyuba was that she picked up melodies by ear. The girl could reproduce literally everything - from classics to modern musical works.
This was followed by a visit to a music school. It is not difficult to guess that Love was one of the most capable students of the educational institution. Today, she does not get tired of repeating that the love for music stretches from childhood.
The creative path of EtoLubov
She tried to conquer the music industry when she was barely 21. According to Lyuba, then she was not psychologically ready for such a profession. She acutely perceived the attacks of the "haters".
“During this time, I have changed. But, not only I have changed, but also the people around me. I know exactly what is worth my attention, and what is better not to take to heart. Whatever people say, they talk about themselves, not about you. The realization of this simple truth makes you free. But, I am very sorry that anger is now progressing in people ... ".
In 2011, she presented the track "You Know Yourself". The song became a brilliant example of a successful start - a record number of downloads and views of the video on Youtube. On the wave of success, she presented the compositions “We will be together”, “Forgive me, goodbye” and “Lines of the heart”. But, soon Love went into the "sunset".
In 2020, together with Yuri Bardash, she began working on the EtoLubov project. However, it soon became known that Lyuba and Yuri were no longer cooperating. As it turned out, the guys did not agree on the terms of the contract.
Today Lyuba is very grateful to Bardash for his support. According to her, it was he who made her feel confident in her own abilities. The singer says that before meeting Yuri, she very much doubted her talent.
She works in the indie pop genre, but some fans describe Luba's tracks as "mantric pop art house". The experimental music of the singer goes with a bang to her "fans". The performer herself says that she has no idea of "making" music for a large audience. For Lyuba, music is the personification of her inner world. It does not include cutting "trends" in her plans.
Presentation of the debut composition "Guessed"
In 2021, the artist's debut track premiered. He received the name "Guessed". But, real success came to her after the release of the single "You are like that."
A video was also filmed for the single. Alan Badoev worked on the video. Lyuba became the author of the musical composition itself. In the clip, a charming performer walks around the factory floor. Since the video was released, it has been watched by more than one million "residents" of YouTube video hosting.
This was followed by the release of the composition "Peonies" and the presentation of a bright video clip. The visual part of the work is a clear geometry of lines and bold color combinations. In the center of the plot is a bewitching dance. During the filming, 1000 fragrant peonies were involved.
Details of EtoLubov's personal life
The personal life of the artist is a closed topic. For this period of time, journalists were not able to talk with Love on an intimate topic. The artist's social networks are also "silent".
