About
Morgenshtern (born Alisher Tagirovich Valeyev, February 17, 1998, Ufa) is a Russian rapper, producer and showman who built one of the largest Russian-language audiences on YouTube through provocative lyrics and a bold visual identity. He left Russia in late 2021 amid drug-related accusations and was subsequently designated a "foreign agent" by Russian authorities in May 2022. In recent years he has shifted his artistic direction toward Russian rock, releasing the EP Alisher (2025) and the acoustic live album Dead Sea Live (2026) after publicly addressing his struggle with bipolar disorder.
