Real fame came to Albert Vasiliev (Kievstoner) after he became part of the Ukrainian musical group "Mushrooms".
They started talking about him even more when he announced that he was leaving the project and going on a solo "voyage".
Kievstoner is the rapper's stage name. At the moment, he continues to write songs, shoot humorous videos and run his own channel on YouTube video hosting.
Childhood and youth of Albert Vasiliev
Albert Vasiliev in his videos positions himself as a "kid from the district". But in fact, the young man is very educated and thoughtful. The birthplace of Albert was the capital of Ukraine. He was born in 1991.
Behind the soul of the artist there are many stage names. The rapper is known not only as a Kievstoner, but also as a budget Guy Ritchie, a correspondent for Rainbow, MC Grandfather, Cousin Lamar and Unknown.
Only Basta calls the rapper by name on his GazLive show. Kievstoner does not deny the fact that he once lived on the street and illegal drugs. In 2010, Ivan, together with his mother, changed their place of residence to the United States of America.
In a way, it was an escape from his native country. They wanted to imprison Vasiliev for 8 years under three articles.
Upon arrival in America, Albert studied at Santa Monica College. He settled in Los Angeles, where he later began making funny videos that gained thousands of views.
Kievstoner noted that life in the United States of America was very difficult for him. The young man was cut off from friends and the usual way of life.
He went into mild depression. To somehow distract himself, the young man records vines (vines) - short humorous videos.
After 5 years, Ivan decided to leave the United States and return to his homeland. In Kyiv, he had acquaintances and friends. In addition, now with experience, Kievstoner could realize all his creative ideas.
Kyiv met Albert with open arms. In his native country, Vasiliev felt like a fish in water. A little more time passed, and they started talking about him in the rap party.
Blog and creativity of Kievstoner
Since 2013, the young man has been uploading his videos to Instagram. An account without a special "promotion" had the first thousand subscribers. Interestingly, Kievstoner still fundamentally does not place ads on his blog.
Upon returning to the territory of Ukraine, he becomes part of the musical group "Mushrooms". Albert is almost inaudible in the songs of the famous group. However, most of the chips that are placed in the video clips are his work.
In 2017, Kievstoner announced to his fans that from now on he is not part of the Mushrooms musical group.
Albert Vasiliev wanted to engage in creativity in the group, but over time the team became so commercial that the guys began to be interested only in money. Then Kievstoner announced that from now on he would not use illegal drugs.
Of course, Kievstoner cannot be called a zozhnik. And without scales, it is clear that the young man is overweight. And if you compare the photos of Albert at the beginning and at the peak of his career, it is noticeable that he gained about 15 extra kilos.
The solo career of Kievstoner took place. The debut album of the singer was the disc "Hypogolik". Interestingly, Albert launched the album under the pseudonym Unknown. Following this disc, the disc "Hypogolik 2" and "Banger" appeared.

In addition, he admitted that he was thinking about the family. He dreams of building a relationship with a kind and non-mercantile girl. Maliciousness repels the rapper.
Rumor has it that Kievstoner is having an affair with his PR manager Lilia Bagirova. The girl often appears on the singer's Instagram. In addition, Bagirova from time to time becomes the heroine of Kievstoner's funny videos.
The rapper's extra weight is a target for his detractors. In one of the interviews, the performer was asked if he was going to lose weight?
Albert had to upset the audience. He is comfortable with such a weight, and at the moment he is not going to lose anything. Sports Kievstoner ignores in every possible way.
In 2020, information appeared that Kievstoner broke up with Lilia Bagirova. Later, the girl confirmed the information. She thanked Kievstoner for the relationship. The couple broke up without common claims to each other.
After an affair with Bagirova, Kievstoner stopped sharing any information about his personal life with subscribers. But, in 2021, he uploaded a photo with a pregnant girlfriend. Later, it turned out that his companion's name was Alina and she was expecting a child from Albert. At the end of November 2021, the couple had a son.
