AIGEL: Russian music in the Tatar language // My favorite music from Russia

In this video I will take you to to the concert of Aigel, one of my favorite Russian bands. I discovered this electronic hip-hop duo a few years ago. I appreciate that besides Russian, their songs are also in Tatar, which is the language of an ethnic minority in Russia. So in these video I will tell you about how music of Aigel helps promote Tatar culture and what, overall, their music can tell us about life in Russia.
