Dimash, the Kazakh singing sensation


When did the world ever had one singing sensation because of his/her constant practice of those low to high pitch voices? Michael Jackson? Mariah Carey? Celine Dion? Queen's Freddie Mercury? Some Rock bands?

I don't remember, well... Enter Dinmukhamed Kanatuly Qudaibergen(family name should have been Aitbayev!) aka Dimash, who was trained as an opera singer but would later carve out a career as a pop singer that bases his songs from folk songs, pop-rock, patriotic, classical and some taste of rap; along with writing music songs himself and playing various instruments. AWESOME.

He can sing in various languages, including my favorite Serbian. As of now, he speaks fluent Kazakh and Russian, while studying English and Chinese. If he gains fluency in English, I bet, he'll be able to wow a lot of not just his fans but also music critics. What stands him out from the others is his voice, ranging from the baritone note, tenor, falsetto and unto the whistle register.


A lot of countries are scrambling to have Dimash perform on a concert, but I hope he comes to Japan, here and sing in Japanese with those strong whistle registers, especially the D8, which turned him into an internet sensation.

If there's two songs I love, it's Screaming Idol Hits version and S.O.S. d'un terrien en detresse.



He's voice is going to the heavens, he is very nice and humble, and will never let his "DEARS" down.

Let's support the Kazakh singing sensation through his journey, conquering our hearts with his heavenly voice and hardworking ethic.

Will you still want SOCIALism?





This may trigger Socialists, but face the reality. Venezuela just destroyed itself with printing money and too much dependence on oil, when the prices of oil went down a few years ago. Ohh, before that, when Hugo Chavez(Jimmy Carter's agent in Venezuela) ordered printing of too much paper money without value, depending on oil, neglecting other potential economic targets and kicking out the middle and upper classes, classifying them as foreign agents.

Well, in Kazakhstan, where a strongman named Nursultan Nazarbayev is ruling since 1991, has been implementing macro-economic reforms after years of economic stagnation following the collapse of the Soviet Union. Kazakhstan's economy is not yet near Russia's economy but it may surpass if Nazarbayev's economic ministers will expand the economic prospects and less dependence on oil.

As we all know, oil is one of the most turbulent products on the world market when prices go down, but Kazakhstan's Capitalist system recovered well since 2014 despite the challenges of corruption by some within their government; but not as corrupted as in the socialist haven of Venezuela.

An interesting article about the Kazakh economic stability is here, if you don't believe my observation:

https://astanatimes.com/2018/02/kazakh-economy-grows-4-percent-in-2017-on-increases-in-manufacturing-non-extraction-industries/

Look, Kazakhstan is a market economy like Russia and has diversified it's economy to avert the crisis of 2014 oil crisis and it's a Capitalist system. Venezuela printed too much paper money, relied only on oil and kicked out the middle class, which doomed them since the time of the popular Chavez.

One moral lesson: Socialism has a lot of red tapes and only cares about the government thugs, while Capitalism cares for the people.
