The birth of the Khleb team cannot be called planned. Soloists say that the group appeared for fun. At the origins of the team is a trio in the person of Denis, Alexander and Kirill.
In songs and video clips, the guys from the Khleb group make fun of numerous rap clichés. Very often parodies look more popular than the original.
The guys arouse interest not only because of their creativity, but also Kirill, Denis and Alexander wear things according to the latest fashion trends. Looking at them, young people can take note of something for compiling a basic wardrobe.
History of creation and composition of the group
The official year of creation of the team is 2013. However, the soloists of the Khleb group insist that it all started back in 2008.
It was then that the soloists of the group (Denis Kukoyaka, Alexander Shuliko and Kirill Trifonov) began to play together in the Club of the cheerful and resourceful. In KVN, the guys stayed for a short time, preferring video blogging.
The debut show of the guys was called "Student Council". The guys filmed videos on a cassette camera. Young people remember that it took several weeks to edit the videos.
Despite the efforts of Alexander, Denis and Cyril, the show was not very popular.
The guys realized that the project needed to be completed. Meanwhile, they began to engage in the "promotion" of the show "CHTOZASHOU". The guys have become very popular.
On average, the videos of Denis, Alexander and Kirill gained up to 100 thousand views. In their hometown, the guys were already local celebrities.
Later, young people registered on Twitter and began sending links to their YouTube channel to Russian show business figures. This intent was insane. But the guys were noticed and invited to work on the youth series "Real Boys".
In addition, young people wrote scripts for several pilot episodes for various projects. However, they all went to the "table".
Work on the script for the TV series CHOP
Then the talented guys were offered to work on the script for the series about security guards. Actually, this is how the series "CHOP" appeared, which was broadcast on the TNT channel.
As a result, the guys worked on two seasons of the series. In an interview with Afisha Dail, Kukoyaka told reporters why the series did not have high ratings.
Denis explained that the series was not hugely popular as it did not fit the usual templates for viewers.
When the group was working on the series "CHOP", she met the founder of the popular advertising agency Booking Machine Igor Mamai.
By the time they met, young people had already posted several cool videos on their YouTube channel. Mamai invited the guys to go on a small tour of 25 cities of the Russian Federation.
The first concerts of the guys were held in nightclubs in Moscow and St. Petersburg. And the young people were a little surprised when they saw how many people came to their concert. Full houses inspired the trio to develop a musical career.
The name of the musical group is a reference to the rhyme “rap is bread” clichéd in Russian rap. The guys took a little time to think about how to name their team.
Initially, the trio did not take the prospect of becoming singers seriously, so they opted for the name "Bread". Naturally, music lovers may not look for a deep philosophical meaning in the name.
The creative path of the Khleb team
In 2013, the guys released their debut EP "Black". The disc contains 5 tracks. On the compositions "Tea, Sugar", "Cameroon", "Rap, Chains", the group shot video clips. The guys described their early work as follows:
“The debut album includes good tracks. Some may shock you. For this, we immediately ask for forgiveness."
In 2015, the musicians presented the single "My Rap". The video clip on YouTube video hosting has gained more than 6 million views. The full-length album "White" was released in 2016.
The disc includes 13 songs. The musicians designated the genre of the disc as a parody rap. Despite the fact that rappers recorded parody clips and songs, music critics noted the high quality of the work.
“The guys from Khleb shoot colorful video clips, try to make the sound of the tracks relevant, and skillfully use such “chips” that speak of a thorough knowledge of the genre.”
2017 was a very productive year for the team. In winter, the TV channel TNT hosted a presentation of the series Civil Marriage, in which Denis Kukoyaka and Alexander Shuliko played.
The composition "Tea, Sugar" became the official soundtrack of the series. In the spring of 2017, the second EP "Bread should be in every home" was released.
In the spring of the same 2017, sales of the ZIQ & YONI x BREAD collection started. On things there was a logo of musical collective. On the day of the start of sales, along with the seller, the leaders of the Khleb group flaunted behind the counter of the store.
The guys not only kindly served customers, but also gave them autographs and took pictures.
In November of the same year, the band's discography was replenished with the album "Cannon". In total, the collection includes about 13 tracks. The guys shot video clips for some of the songs.
There were no collaborations. Yaniks, the Big Russian Boss, as well as the Disco Crash team took part in the recording of this album.
Bread group today
Despite the fact that "Khleb" has been on the stage for more than 7 years, during this time the composition of the team has not changed. All the same persons remain in the group - Denis, Alexander and Kirill.
2018 is marked by the release of the second part of the EP "Bread should be in every home 2". The collection was warmly received by music lovers. Yes, and music critics this time did not deny themselves flattering comments.
In addition, in 2018, the guys became guests of Ivan Urgant's entertainment show "Evening Urgant". Only top characters are invited to visit Ivan, so it is not surprising that the Khleb group got into the studio.
Together with the team "Fruits" the guys performed the song "Shashlyndos". In 2019, the group presented the new album "Stars" to fans of their work. The collection includes 11 vicious tracks.
If it were possible to describe the collection in a few sentences, it would look like this: instead of live action movies, the album contains a lot of minor auto-tuned pop about relationships. One thing remains the same - an excellent sense of humor.
There were no video clips. After all, in something, but in the video clips, the legendary trio understood. Clips deserve considerable attention: AirPod, "Ebobo", "Bambaleyla", "200 den".
In 2020, the Khleb team has already managed to hold a concert. A recording of the concert can be viewed on YouTube.
The trio assures that in 2020 fans will have a new album, good video clips and a tour of Russia. The soloists of the group can be observed in almost all social networks.
In 2019, the presentation of a new album by the popular youth group Khleb took place. The collection was called "Stars". If we recall the ironic rap hits with which the band started, then everything is a little different on this album. The tracks turned out to be lyrical and sad (but no less ironic for that).
The capital presentation of the collection took place at the big solo concert "Bread", which took place at the Adrenaline Stadium on November 9th. In 2020, the guys presented video clips for part of the tracks of the Zvezdy album.
Khleb Group in 2021
In early April 2021, the Khleb group presented a remix of their track "Vino" from the LP, presented in 2018. The team took part in the creation of the remix "Cream Soda».
