Music

Already as a teenager, Alexey Fokin decided to connect his further biography with music. After graduating from school, the young man went to Moscow, where he easily entered the legendary Gnessin School. In parallel with his studies, the young man constantly participated in various castings and selections, hoping to find a producer. There are even rumors in the press that Alexey could become one of the members of the Ivanushki International team.

Unfortunately, the singer was never able to find work in the capital, and after finishing Gnesinka, the young man set off to conquer St. Petersburg. This decision turned out to be correct: in the city on the Neva, Alexey quickly found musician friends, and after a while he met Evgeny Rudin, known as DJ Groove, and musician Oleg Korovin.

New friends helped Alexey record his first composition, and also radically change both his image and name: this is how the singer Nikita appeared. Soon the artist’s debut song “Flew Away Forever” was already heard on all radio stations, and Nikita, together with DJ Groove, went to Moscow, where the musical material was presented to the eminent producer Yuri Aizenshpis. He, being a professional, immediately saw serious potential in Nikita and agreed to start promoting the singer.

Nikita - “Flew Away Forever”

In 1999, Nikita’s debut album, “Flew Away Forever,” was released, which topped the best-selling album ratings for several weeks. And two years later, the artist’s discography was replenished with another disc, which was called “I’ll Drown in Your Love.” It seemed that Nikita’s popularity would only gain momentum, but in 2002 the singer broke his contract with Yuri Aizenshpis. According to rumors, the reason for this was creative differences.

After Nikita went off on his own, fans did not hear any news about their idol for some time. Only in 2004, the singer presented the album “So Strange” to the public, which, unfortunately, failed to repeat the success of Nikita’s previous albums.

Nikita's song "No or Yes"

This failure forced the singer to think seriously about his own style. As Nikita later confessed in an interview, it was at that moment that he thought that it was time to grow up and change his lifestyle. To organize his thoughts and come to harmony with himself, the singer decided to take a sabbatical. Nikita moved to Europe for a whole year and for some time stopped communicating with the usual “get-together”.

Finally, in 2007, Nikita released another album. The track list of the album “Nikita: The Best” includes the singer’s already well-known hits, performed in a new style and given a new arrangement.

In addition, Nikita prepared two new songs, one of which he performed in a duet with Anastasia Stotskaya. Immediately after the release of this record, the artist went on a large-scale tour and over the course of a year and a half toured both Russia and many foreign countries.

Returning from the tour, the singer began work on the following compositions, which, according to Nikita, turned out to be personal and sincere. According to the singer, most of the songs are a reflection of his thoughts and feelings, fans just need to hear it.

In 2020, Nikita performed on the “Star Factory” project together with “manufacturer” Danya Danilevsky. The performers chose the proven hit “Once Upon a Time” and received sincere applause from the audience.

Personal life

As a performer and artist, Nikita is completely open and frank with fans, but the singer prefers to keep the details of his personal life secret.

Such isolation makes fans and journalists speculate as to whether the artist has a wife and children. There were also rumors in the press about the performer's gay orientation, but Nikita is true to himself and does not comment on anything at all related to matters of the heart.

Childhood and adolescence

The future stage star was born on May 18, 1993 in Kyiv. Nikita grew up in a single-parent family - he was raised by his mother and her sister. His mother is a doctor by training. Nikita never saw his father - he left the family when he learned about his wife’s pregnancy and her reluctance to have an abortion. It is known that the man now lives abroad, successfully works as a doctor, is married and has twin sons. Despite the fact that the man left his family and started a new one, Nikita was not angry with him, but on the contrary, he would like to get to know him and his brothers personally.

Nikita Alekseev in childhood

Alekseev considers the advent of wild popularity not only to be his merit, but also to some kind of magic associated with his last name. The fact is that the young man got this surname from a front-line friend of his grandfather, whom he shielded from a bullet. To perpetuate the memory of a true friend, Nikita’s grandfather took this man’s surname. My grandfather’s real name is Chumak.

From an early age the boy traveled a lot. At the age of six months, he and his mother went to live in Chita, where they stayed for two years. After which they returned to their native Kyiv. From the age of three, the boy, thanks to his enterprising aunt, periodically lived with a Spanish family in order to learn the language. At one time he lived with one childless family for 8 months. His Spanish was at the native level, and the family in which he lived all this time wanted to adopt the boy. Naturally, the child’s mother was categorically against this, and he himself terribly did not want to leave the family - the Spanish family accepted him as their own son.

As a schoolboy, Alekseev was actively involved in tennis for five years. Through this, he developed coordination, rhythm, cultivated the will to win, and determination. Such qualities were useful to the guy not only in sports, but also in music, which he became seriously interested in at the age of ten. Then he began going to vocal lessons with an authoritative person, Konstantin Pon. Nikita notes that the man stood at the origins of his development as a performer. Pon instilled in the guy a subtle musical taste, a love of classic rock and selected pop music.

From an early age, the boy dreamed of universal recognition and popularity. As he admitted in one of his interviews, before going to bed as a child, he fell asleep with dreams of a stage and an enthusiastic audience of thousands. He not only dreamed, but also tried to do everything to fulfill these desires: he tried his luck at the qualifying round for Junior Eurovision (but could not go further), created his own musical rock group “Mova” (translated from Ukrainian as “Rech” ). He has many memories associated with this group - both funny and funny. Once, when the guy was 12 years old and the group intended to perform the song “We are the champions” by the legendary group Queen, Nikita’s mother bought snow-white trousers for this performance. At one of the rehearsals, he rode in them on his knees on the floor, which was coated with mastic. The pants were irreparably damaged.

The artist always dreamed of a creative career

After graduating from school, the guy decided to choose a profession that was in demand, in his opinion, that could bring a stable income - marketing. In parallel with his studies, he tried to earn extra money in call centers and karaoke bars. Despite the fact that there was practically no time for anything, he still could not give up music, and within six months he and his comrades founded a rock band. In addition, he was enrolled at the Kiev Institute of Culture as a free student, where he studied the profession of director and actor. He also became interested in the art of stage movement and speech. However, he was haunted by the thought that luck was eluding him every time he wanted to grab it.

Personal life of Nikita Alekseev

So far in Nikita's life there was only one love. Several years ago, he dated a girl whose name he never mentioned anywhere. The couple broke up because the companion was not ready for the literally wild popularity of her young man; she was irritated by the army of his fans, constant employment and workload.

Nikita reacted sharply to the breakup and deleted photos with the girl from all of his social networks. At some point, he even turned to mysticism and began to connect the break with his beloved with one of his songs, living in Spain and other facts from his life that allegedly predicted negativity for him in the future.

The young man tried to compensate for the failure in his personal life by adding sports to his already busy schedule. After breaking up with his girlfriend, he took up two sports at once - tennis and football. These sports were present in his life before; he was even a member of the Kyiv football team “Maestro”. A few years later, Nikita resumed training.

The beginning of a creative biography

Nikita Alekseev, in order to reach a high level and become a professional musician, worked hard and improved his skills. Not everything was easy; there were periods of ups and downs in his career.

In Alekseev’s creative biography, famous musicians Alena Vinnitskaya and Alexey Bolshoi played an important role, who became bright role models for him. They witnessed Alekseev’s performance in one of the mass concerts and immediately recognized him as a talented musician. At the same time, Alena and Alexey gave him recommendations and explained that he definitely needed to learn and develop.

Thanks to his mother, Nikita received a musical education at an art school, and later a higher education in marketing.

Alekseev’s creative biography as a singer began with participation in the “Voice” and “Eurovision” competitions, and he also passed the casting to participate in the “X-Factor”. This was the initial stage in the development of his musical talent.

The guy tried to participate in the “Voice of Ukraine” 2 times. The first time he failed to qualify, and the second time, thanks to the help and mentoring of Ani Lorak, Nikita made it to the semi-finals.

The casting for the X-Factor competition ended with an unexpected incident - Alekseev lost his voice during the 1st round. The commission gave him the opportunity to qualify for the 2nd stage of selection, but the guy was unable to recover by the appointed date and himself refused further participation.

At the Eurovision contest, Nikita was supposed to compete for Belarus, which led to a scandal - the guy was accused of violating the established rules. He failed to reach the final, which surprised professional critics in the music world.

The power of a surname for the development of talent

Nikita explains his popularity not only by personal merit, but also by the special power of his surname. Nikita Alekseev’s biography contains many interesting stories and historical facts regarding his family. As it turned out, their last name belonged to a friend of their grandfather, with whom they fought. The friend shielded the grandfather from the bullet with his own body, thereby saving him by sacrificing his own life. My grandfather’s real surname is Chumak, but he changed it to his friend’s surname in memory of him.

Nikita's relatives did not have any talents in the field of art, but the boy began to show ability and desire to study music. At the age of 10, his mother sent him to music school. There, a high-level professional, Konstantin Pona, took care of the boy. He was known to the public for his compositions for the TV movie “Hipsters.” It was Pona who managed to develop and realize Nikita’s vocal talent.
