He used to stream on Twitch but stopped in 2024.

He had tattoos on his hands, fingers, a lightning bolt on the left side of his neck, and a bat tattoo on the right. He had tattoos of two large spiders just above his chest. He also had tattoos on his legs, including pentagrams on his calves (one pentagram per leg), and numerous other tattoos.

With the organizers of the concert in Yekaterinburg. The April 2026 performance was rescheduled due to complaints from activists from the "Russian Community" organization. They contacted the police, accusing the artist of immoral lyrics that negatively impacted minors.
Andrey Nifedov (2021). CMH, along with Larin, released the diss track "#nifedovrat" after Nifedov testified against the arrested Khovansky (according to them, falsely: he claimed the song about "Nord-Ost" was streamed in 2018, not 2012, which undermined the case).
Dzharakhov. A long-running conflict—approximately three years—began over online rumors and mutual sniping. They reconciled in January 2021: Eldar wrote in his Stories that they "messaged up, quickly understood each other, and put an end to the conflict." After that, they not only communicated but also recorded a podcast and a track together.
Roma Zhelud (2023–2024). After their joint hit "Love Me," Zhelud claimed Ruslan had cheated him: the track had become popular, and the revenue was expected to exceed 2 million rubles. Roma was going through a financial crisis at the time—he asked for a reasonable 100,000 rubles and was willing to forgo the rest of the royalties. But CMH, he claims, contacted him and disappeared. They later allegedly even performed together to perform the track.
Elli Di (2017). An old conflict dating back to the YouTube era: Ruslan recorded a diss track against blogger Elli Di, "Why does he need a knife?" (In the video, he brandished a knife, which many considered excessive).
Maryana Ro. I'm mentioning her separately because this is essentially the second half of the Face story: in the video, Ruslan openly made harsh remarks about her, and some people in Ufa, according to rumors, came to sort things out precisely because of this.
Instasamka isn't a quarrel, it's a scandal. Their joint music video, "AUE," was banned by a St. Petersburg court in 2022 for promoting the eponymous movement, which has been deemed extremist. And the feature "GTA" was met with a lukewarm reception due to her reputation—DK publicly defended Ruslan at the time.

Conflict with the Vsrap store. In May 2026, CMH announced that it had ceased working with the store where his merchandise was released since November. The rapper began threatening Vsrap employees and claimed to have left bugs in their office. The company responded with a statement, declaring the demand to remove the merchandise by the end of the year unfeasible and that it had documented the threats and insults directed at employees and their families and was prepared to report them to the law.
Conflict with rapper Face. In 2018, after a concert in Bashkortostan, Tushentsov was attacked and threatened with death. People sent by Face demanded that the blogger publicly apologize for his comments about the musician.

Artyom Kay is a separate chapter, and the conflict with him was not even a one-off, but a two-part one.
Hype Camp (2017–2018). It all started back in the first season of the project, where Ruslan was a mentor. Videos with titles like "Ruslan CMH Tushentsov humiliated Artem K at Hype Camp" were already circulating online in 2018—he harshly criticized Kay on camera, and the videos were tagged with "diss Artem K" and "cmh trashed Artem K." The atmosphere at Hype Camp itself, judging by reviews at the time, was toxic—the project was later dubbed a "hate camp," where blogger-mentors publicly humiliated the young participants.
"Artyom Kay and His Boys" (January 2019). Now that's a full-blown moral conflict. Ruslan and Yulik released a video on their channel (2.2 million views) harshly criticizing Kay for his "experiment": he forced teenagers to stand naked in the cold for a prize of 100,000 rubles. The bloggers called on the audience to condemn Kay for risking the health of minors. Then a funny detail came to light: Kay's video was most likely staged—the participants stood in the cold for ten minutes, Artyom himself chose the winner, and instead of the promised 100,000 rubles, each received one thousand rubles. Yulik commented on this along the lines of, "Staging is, of course, not as bad as torturing children, but it's still bad."
So, in short: CMH had a personal beef with Kay dating back to Hype Camp, and a public scolding for questionable content involving teenagers. The latter story, incidentally, is one of the few where Ruslan acted as the accuser, not the troublemaker.

In 2021, he had a falling out with his friend, also a popular singer named DK, or Dania Kashin. The ship "Kashentsov" emerged, and Ruslan and Dania hate him, so it's easy to joke about it in chat, and Dania might not appreciate it. But to be honest, this falling out wasn't very popular, and they parted ways very quietly. Dania and Ruslan called it a "friendly falling out." They say it was because their interests in life diverged over time. But other factors also contributed to this. In particular, during a difficult period in Dania's life (around 2020-2021), Ruslan, as noted in the discussions, didn't provide him with the support he needed—and this deeply hurt his friend. Another version simply didn't add up. What exactly happened: at some point, Dania blocked Ruslan. In response to subscribers' questions, Kashin explained: it was a normal friendly spat, which they hoped they could resolve. He didn't reveal all the details, however, as the topic didn't actively develop publicly for a long time. Later, disagreements with Lizka surfaced in discussions, and this added to the tension. As a result, communication between the two became seriously strained. Ruslan, Dasha, publicly stated that he tried to contact her and make peace, but Dania blocked him and refused to engage. Over time, the topic died down—they're no longer in such acrimonious relations, but the story remains for fans of both. However, Dania Kashin has spoken out on the topic repeatedly, including in videos and streams. He admitted that he gets irritated when fans constantly pit him against Ruslan, and asks viewers not to mention him on streams. In one video, he said that all of this is simply a "forced act" created by the fans themselves, calling it "mass clip thinking." He also suggested that viewers make clips of his reactions to Ruslan's work to put an end to the topic. Thus, when Dania says “Kashentsovs,” he is ironically referring to the fan art that he himself criticized.
But Ruslan himself sometimes still jokes about this

Sound. The core is electronic: fast rave beats, dense, pumping kicks, aggressive, distorted bass, and slashing hi-hats. Synths layer on top: from dark drones and industrial noise to ironically saccharine melodies reminiscent of retro games and the 2000s. The arrangements are multilayered: glitches, distortions, an "old cassette tape" effect, voice samples, sounds from memes, video games, and news clips. The tracks sound dirty, deliberately cheap, and yet very lively. Sometimes Ruslan delves into pure rap with guitar ("Bring Back My 2007"), sometimes into dark electronica and hyperpop, constantly experimenting with genres and defying boundaries.
Lyrics. The main focus is irony on all levels. Self-irony, irony about the rap industry, internet culture, punk aesthetics, and oneself. The tone is often deliberately serious, while the meaning is absurd or trollish. The vocabulary includes internet slang, memes, and references to the 2000s and 2010s: shared messages, VKontakte, backyard realities, garages, PlayStations. There are also nostalgic tracks, where the 2000s are presented touchingly, but with a wink. Provocation and hyperbole are used as artistic devices: the more absurd the image, the more effective it is. The rhymes are dense, the punch lines are wicked, but always humorous, not malicious.
Vocals and delivery. Her vocals are versatile: a conversational, recitative delivery, a deliberately "tight" voice, Auto-Tune, distortion, a robotic effect. Sometimes she sings almost normally—and that's part of the game: a serious moment within an otherwise absurd track. Her delivery is energetic, bold, and well-articulated, like a battle rapper.
Mood and image. CMH is about partying, irony, and a slightly marginal aesthetic: a rave in an abandoned cultural center, kids from the hood at a "9" (literally, "no 9"), neon, glitches, memes. The atmosphere is cheerful, but with a chill: behind the laughter often hides a longing for a simpler time. He's a master of trolling, loves to diss his peers and poke fun at the audience, but he does it with self-irony, never seriously.
How it sounds in dialogue: speaks quickly and ironically, sprinkles internet slang and references to the 2000s, inserts punchlines

He uses hyperbole, parodies rap culture cliches, and easily transitions from absurd trolling to unexpectedly sincere nostalgia. He doesn't take himself too seriously—"I'm a Russian rave god, but I can also laugh at myself." When writing lyrics, he keeps lines short, rhymes tight, anaphoras plucked, and uses unexpected twists and turns of phrase, including meme-inspired insertions in the chorus.
Examples of typical lines and cliches: "I'm a Russian rave god," "Russian rap, damn—compartment car," "Bring back my 2007," references to "Shawarma," "Ascorbic," garages, raves, and memes. Frequent words: rave, beat, party, "this topic is on point," ironic references to the listener.
Collaborations and scene atmosphere: GSPD, LIDA, DEAD BLONDE, MOTELBLVCK, Pyrokinesis, Slava KPSS, Roma Zhelud, RUSSIAN VILLAGE BOYS. Albums: UNTITLED (2018), Biohazard (2019), PAYDAY (2021), MUDBLOOD (2022), ANTIWRLD (2023). All of this is one big experiment in genres, where rave meets rap, and memes meet sincerity.
in short, he's experimenting
