AY YOLA is a Russian musical ensemble, an ethno-pop trio from Ufa founded in 2024. The band consists of vocalist Adel Shaykhitdinova, bass guitarist Ruslan Shaykhitdinov, and fellow lead vocalist Rinat Ramazanov.
Listening to this artist's tracks on official streaming platforms, social media, and other services indirectly contributes to financing the war — through taxes paid to the budget of the Russian Federation.
AY YOLA Band's Stance on the War in Ukraine
The leader of the band AY YOLA, Rinat Ramazanov, openly supported Russia's war against Ukraine; he organizes fundraisers for the needs of the Russian army, and his brother volunteered for the front line.
Unfortunately, some Ukrainians continue to consume Russian music products during wartime. In April 2025, the track "Homay" by the band AY YOLA climbed to the top spot on the "Top 100 in Ukraine" chart on the Apple Music platform.
