Interview with Pussy Riot about new video

QW7OYY

https://youtu.be/VakUHHUSdf8Pussy Riots leader, Nadezhda Tolokonnikova, spoke with the Daily Beast about their new music video, which makes fun of the Russian Prosecutor General Yuri Y. Chaika.

My American friend [Dave Sitek, who produced the video] suggested that this time we do hip-hop, the genre originally rooted in gangster culture, said NT. So in the film we have a criminal, the biggest gangster there is in Russia: Prosecutor General Yuri Y. Chaika.

[Tolokonnikova] plays a rather special version of Chaika. She wears a tight uniform, fishnet stockings, and patent pink high heels that sharpen her long legs. Over and over she sings Chaikas rules: Be loyal to those in power, because power is a gift from God, son. I love Russia. Im a patriot.

The words come straight from Chaikas declarations after members of the Russian opposition investigated him and leveled against him allegations of massive corruption and connections with organized crime.
