By the name of the Technician: what threatens the rapper's fans for drawing on Tsoi's wall

Unknown people dedicated graffiti to the musician and angered fans of the Kino group

The new inscription appeared after Tsoi's wall on Arbat was defaced on April 12 by fans of the deceased rapper Pasha Technik. The next day, fans of the Kino group came with spray cans to paint over the graffiti. As one of them noted, he does not know the songs of the Technician, but Viktor Tsoi's music will always be listened to, from generation to generation.

In St. Petersburg on April 16, fans also pasted a photo of a Technician in a monkey mask on top of Tsoi's image. Another provocation of the rapper's fans took place in Lyubansky Lane in the square of the rock musician.
