MONEYKEN

**MONEYKEN** (born Oleg Ruslanovich Eropkin on September 20, 2000, in Moscow) is a Russian hip-hop artist and producer known for his trap- and drill-influenced sound. Rising through collaborations with artists like Instasamka (his partner and frequent collaborator), he’s built a reputation for raw, moody tracks, including albums like *K season 1 (2022)* and joint projects *СЕМЕЙНЫЙ БИЗНЕС* (2020) and *Spasibo Papasha* (2020). While gaining traction in Russia’s hip-hop scene, he’s faced criticism for alleged beat appropriation, adding a contentious edge to his growing discography.

His recent releases, like *СЕМЕЙНЫЙ БИЗНЕС 2, Pt. 1* and *KENDALL*, continue his signature blend of hard-hitting production and gritty lyricism, reflecting his status as a polarizing yet undeniable force in Moscow’s rap landscape.
