At the end of the video, he instructs Joniboy to defeat Oksimiron before their upcoming battle and invites listeners to his concerts.
Background
In 2011, rapper Dunya was spotted hosting a live word guessing TV show. In 2012, he participated in the TV show "Let's Get Married!".
For the appearance of Dunya in such programs, part of the rap public laughed at Alexander. Despite this, he continued to be successful as a battle rapper.
Rap battles
Dunya's first offline battle took place in 2013 at the Versus site. Alexander chose Khokhl as his opponent. Despite the opponent's experience in this type of competition, he was able to win.
A special event for Dunya was the battle with Oksimiron. There was no doubt about the professionalism of the performers. They demonstrated the most powerful text from the point of battle rap, touching the opponent to the quick. The tense event was aggravated by the atmosphere in the hall. Due to the inappropriate behavior of the audience, which made noise and shouted something at the performers, there is still debate about who won.
The next opponent was a rapper under the pseudonym Koresh. The viewers lashed out at the critics due to the promotional integration, preparation of the contestants, and the judges' decision. Dunya, for lack of time, did not have time to prepare and took someone else's text. By decision of the judges, he lost.
In 2017, Dunya decided to try his hand at another battle site, "Rip on Bits". As the name implies, unlike Versus, this site is more focused on reading text under the beat. Dunya, together with the rapper SD, opposed Kazhe and Krip-a-krip. This battle failed.
This year only one battle took place with the participation of Alexander. Like last time, Dunya's company was made up of SD. This time they were opposed by D. Masta and Mighty Dee. Each MC stood out with a special style and presentation. Compared to last year's confrontation, Alexander showed growth. Rapper Dunya and SD won, according to the majority of viewers.
