Krussia was born in Russia’s Detroit, Chelyabinsk,and came to New York with a backpack full of ambition and a pen. Upon arrival he worked as a dishwasher, construction worker, furniture mover, bike messenger to get by, before he was able to link up with Brooklyn’s OG – PF Cuttin who backed the release of his project Making Moves that included tracks with Afu-Ra, Sean Price, C-Rayz Walz, and Grand Puba.
As a beat-boxer Krussia appeared in the movie “Planet B-Boy” along Kenny Muhammad, Masai Electro, and the documentary “5th Element of Hip Hop” with Dj Shark (Japan). The 2010 solo album “I’m not white – I’m russian” produced with his long-time music partner Andrew Tripmastaz was a result of collaborative work with such artists like Blitz the Ambassador, Gc & Soulmafia, Joel Ortiz, Gift of Gab, Silent Knight. Without paying attention to opinions on how music is “supposed” to sound, Krussia continues to push the frames of definition and open ears to new possibilities. The new album “Diagonal” is out now.
