VACIO, the star of the “naked party,” talked about wearing a sock on his penis and toxic masculinity

Rapper Vacio (Nikolai Vasilyev), the most talked-about guest at Nastya Ivleeva’s “naked party,” gave an interview to Yuri Dud.

He spoke at length about his experience after participating in Ivleeva's "nude party", including his arrest, trial, and time in a detention center. Vacio also discussed his musical career, the evolution of his views on life and art, and the reasons that led him to leave Russia and move to France. He spoke about personal experiences, such as his struggle with addiction and his changing attitude toward toxic masculinity and a desire for personal freedom of self-expression through music and style, including wearing high heels.

Коля признаётся, что в его прошлом “весь спектр букета токсично-маскулинности” присутствовал в его поведении.Он описывает, как “вёл себя с ней ужасным образом”, говоря громко, матерясь и вульгарно общаясь с девушками. В частности, он вспоминает, как вёл себя ужасно с 18-летней девушкой. VACIO отмечает, что его поведение было связано с комплексами и страхом потерять контроль или выглядеть слабым. Коля говорит, что после опыта с девушкой он понял, что “что-то блядь по-моему тут не так”.

We recently wrote about how VACIO recorded the track "PIDARASIO" about fighting the system and the backlash following his participation in Nastya Ivleeva’s “naked party.” This is the 27-year-old artist’s first track in a year.

At the event, Vacio appeared wearing a single sock on his penis. After the party, the musician was arrested and sentenced to 15 days in jail under the charge of petty hooliganism. He was also fined 200,000 rubles under the law on “LGBT propaganda.”

After his release, he was detained again under the same charge, on the grounds that he had used profanity as he was leaving the police station. At that time, the court sentenced Vacio to another ten days in jail, and he was later served with a summons to report to the military registration and enlistment office.In late January, his attorney, Roman Popov, reported...that his client will be drafted into the army in the spring of 2024.

After that, Vacio left Russia.
