Madk1d (Mark Serkov) is a Russian rapper and hip-hop artist. Born on April 11, 2002, in Tomsk, Russia.
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.
Unfortunately, Madk1d's tracks occupy high positions on Ukrainian streaming platforms even during the full-scale war, enjoying particular popularity among Ukrainian youth.
In February 2026, he was entered into the database of the "Myrotvorets" website for public support of Russian aggression and the killing of Ukrainian citizens.
Madk1d's Stance on the War in Ukraine
Following Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Madk1d initially adopted a position of silence. In April 2022, he posted a photo of New York's Central Park accompanied by a user comment saying "Right in the middle would be a great spot for a nuke." Under the post, he wrote: "My civic stance is simple…"
On July 27, 2025, he performed a concert in temporarily occupied Simferopol.
Tracks About the War
In 2024, he released the track "Davno" ("Long Ago"), dedicated to the so-called SMO, romanticizing the image of a Russian occupying soldier:
...And I know that you blow up these tanks, BMPs
You're a hero and humble guy who didn't serve in the VDV
And I know that in CS you play on CT
On your shoulder is a patch reading «ZVYou've been in the SMO for a long, long time, the smoke will pierce the ceiling
Leaving these wounds on your soul, you've been there long...
He also released the track "Samyi luchshiy trudovik" ("The Best Shop Teacher") about a teacher heading off to the so-called SMO:
my shop teacher said f*** it all — ditched school and got into his Lada
he took Bakhmut, no f***ing questions asked, he couldn't leave his buddy behind
On His Civic Position
In May 2025, in an interview with The Flow, he spoke about his civic position. When asked about "the guys in the SMO", he responded:
It hurts me that so many guys are over there, and so few people support them. You can count on the fingers of one hand the artists who supported them directly. I have an active civic position. I love my country, and I don't want to keep quiet about it.
Regarding the song "The Best Shop Teacher":
I watched a video of students seeing off a teacher to the SMO. It touched me deeply. It seemed very alive — the truth just as it is. The people who are there fighting for us include shop teachers and educators. That's why I decided to bring this story to life in music. Life is a struggle, unfortunately. Both geopolitically and at the cellular level, conditionally, in our body. Life is always a struggle. That is all.
Madk1d conditions teenagers to perceive war not as a tragedy or crime, but as something ordinary, "relatable," and even worthy of sympathy or pride. His creative work presents participation in the SMO as normal, and the soldier's image as a hero deserving support. The artist himself openly supports war criminals and, by extension, the war against Ukraine.
