His artistry evolved over the years with successive releases, illustrious collaborations, and dynamic live performances, firmly embedding his name among the genre’s most respected. Pushing boundaries and exploring diverse styles, his more recent releases such as "Прости" and "Get Mines" showcase his relentless creative exploration. Notable projects like "The Art Of Reanimation" and collaborations featured on tracks like "Doing Me Wrong" with Sally Green reveal his ability to cross generational gaps while remaining true to his underground roots. Contemporaries and fans alike recognize Casual for his dedication to authentic hip-hop culture and his influence on the genre’s evolution.
