Each artist who plans to gain popularity has a chip, thanks to which his fans will recognize him.
And if the singer Glukoza hid her face to the last, then the soloists of the NikitA group not only did not hide her face, but quite frankly showed those parts of the body that most people hide under their clothes.
Ukrainian duet NikitA appeared in 2008. And if brutal men ignore pop music in every possible way, then with the advent of the NikitA group, they were forced to “stick” to the screen.
The history of the creation of the NikitA group
The founder of the NikitA group is one of the most famous producers, Yuri Nikitin.
There are rumors in Ukrainian show business that if Nikitin takes young singers under his wing, they will soon become popular. This happened not only with the NikitA group, but also with Irina Bilyk, Verka Serduchka.
In 2007, Nikitin invited Daria Astafyeva to take part in the Ukrainian show "Star Factory". Then the girl did not win.
The producer did not dare to leave the bright girl even after the show, luring Yulia Kavtaradze from the A.R.M.I.Ya. group. into a separate musical group based on Mamamusic. This is how you can briefly describe the history of the creation of the Ukrainian pop group NikitA.
It is noteworthy that the group was named not by the producer, but by his ward Daria Astafieva. At first, Yuri did not want to assign such a loud name to the team. However, Dasha was able to convince the "father" of the NikitA group.
“Initially, I was against the group being called NikitA. But the girls managed to convince me that this is the right name.
Nikita is a secret agent, a strong and sexy woman who, despite everything, has retained her femininity and tenderness. Julia and Dasha are just such girls, ”commented Yuri Nikitin.
The creative path of the NikitA group
In 2008, the Ukrainian musical group presented the video clip "Machine" to music lovers. The debut clip became so successful, the soloists received the title of "Discovery of the Year". The prestigious glossy magazine Cosmo appreciated their style at the highest level. The girls decided to consolidate their success by releasing a collection of their tracks.
In 2009, the Ukrainian team released a new provocative video clip "Ropes". This work caused a storm of emotions among the audience and got into the rotation of TV channels marked 18+.
This is not surprising, since Dasha and Yulia appeared completely naked in front of the audience. The clip was broadcast exclusively at night.
Dasha and Yulia did not quite understand the reaction of the public. They said that there are absolutely no boundaries for them. If they ever have a desire to go out for bread without underwear and clothes, they will definitely do it.
The girls continued the theme of nudity and erotica with pleasure in their next video clip "Soldier", where Yulia and Dasha reincarnated as beautiful strippers.
In this clip, you can see a promotional poster for Sobieski. The duet took part in the company's advertising campaign.
Despite their frankness, the Ukrainian group NikitA passed the qualifying round for the international Eurovision Song Contest. But in the end, the girls did not get into the competition, because Daria was invited to another project.
Daria Astafieva is accustomed to increased attention from men. She was a frequent guest of the American and Ukrainian Playboy magazine.
Interestingly, Astafieva managed to establish platonic, friendly relations with Hugh Hefner. In 2010, the NikitA group got to Hugh Hefner's private party.
The following year, the first changes began in the team. The place of the seductive Julia was taken by Anastasia Kumeiko. The girls managed to release the musical composition "20: 12". In addition to Anastasia, Yulia Brichkovskaya also appeared in the group.
The duet expanded into a trio. Without changing their role, the girls collaborated in the same composition for five years.
Every video clip released by the girls is a provocation of society. It is enough to watch the clips “I bite”, “Inhale”, “Avocado” and others, full of readable Freudian symbols and constant references to adult topics.
In 2016, two vocalists left the trio. The group was headed by the sexy Dasha Astafieva, so the group was called "Dasha Astafieva & NIKITA", where Antonina Chumak and Alisa Trembitskaya were responsible for dancing.
Soon, Daria presented the video clip “Undaring” to fans of her work; the famous clip maker Alan Badoev was involved in the creation of the video.
But the fans reacted rather coldly to the video clip of Alan Badoev. The public wanted to see the old NikitA, a lot of debauchery and eroticism. Instead, a gloomy clip and "timid" Daria Astafieva.
Dasha changed her former role. There have been positive changes in the singer's personal life. And most likely, the singer's man asked her to include a "modest share girl."
In 2017, Daria Astafieva announced that she would pursue a solo career. Over the years of the existence of the Ukrainian musical group NikitA, the group has received six musical nominations, in three the NikitA group has won.
