Childhood, youth and first steps in musical career
Sergey (Sergey Parkhomenko) was born on October 8, 1976 in the Belarusian city of Gomel. The rapper does not like to talk about his childhood and family, so this page of his biography is not known to many people.
Most likely, he grew up an ordinary boy, who did not even think about the career of a musician. After graduating from high school and studying for 2 years at Gomel University, Sergei went to Germany, where he studied political science and economics. He never received his diploma. His passion for rap music prevented him from becoming a specialist. It was serious enough, Parkhomenko even recorded his first track 2 Kaiser, which was later filmed a music video. Sergey returned to his homeland with the conviction to continue his musical career and in a short time recorded several tracks.
Sergey's star hour
In the winter of 2004 Parkhomenko first appeared on Ukrainian music TV channel, and after that released the album "My Yard. Weddings and funerals", which brought him considerable fame. The same disk with a slightly changed title was also released in Russia. The title tracks of the album were:
- "Lyalya was ruined";
- "Doll";
- "Black Boomer".
Appearance of the last composition on radio stations and on TV had a bombshell effect. The track, followed by the music video shot for the song "Black Boomer", instantly became the leader of the most authoritative hit parades and was nominated for the MTV Russian Music Awardssimultaneously in two categories: "Best Hip-Hop Project" and "Best Debut of the Year". It was after this composition to Sergey came to real fame.
No less successful was the album "Diskomalaria" released in 2005 with the title track "Near Your Home". Connoisseurs argue that it is on this record clearly visible transition of Sergey from the street theme of songs to a more qualitative, "expensive" hip-hop. Interesting fact: in the movie "Transformers 3: Dark Side of the Moon" composition "Diskomalaria", which gave the name of the disk, sounds in a Russian club, where the main characters of the film. But the single is absent in the official list of soundtracks.

Sergey not only evaluated performances, but also became a producer of different musical categories - "Collectives", "Guys", "Girls". In the same period Parkhomenko also tried his hand as an actor, starring in several movies and TV series.
In 2014, the rapper returned to the musical Olympus. Releasing a record called "50 Shades of Grey", he showed everyone that he is full of strength for new victories and achievements. The album included 11 tracks, on 5 of them were filmed clips. The internal changes that occurred in the performer, clearly seen in the album with the loud name "Phoenix", released a year later.
In the same 2015 Parkhomenko presented to the public his new musical project "Polygraph SharikoOFF" in the style of chanson, which revealed the simple-minded "boy in a fashionable cap", which the public is used to seeing him, from a completely different side. The new image helped the artist to attract the attention of the public and return the former popularity.
The first singles "Charisma" and "Cocoa White" were very warmly received by listeners, and released a little later the video "Only Sex" instantly went viral.

Personal life
To the discussion of his personal life, Sergei is very zealous. Despite the fact that he was married twice, there is very little information in the media on this topic, as well as on what concerns his relationship with the fair sex.
The first time Parkhomenko married model Dayami Morales, who for the sake of her husband agreed to change her place of residence, left Cuba and moved to Kiev. But because of the endless tours of Sergei the couple was not able to arrange a joint life. Young people broke up.
The artist was not going to live alone for a long time, and just a couple of months later spun a new romance with his acquaintance Pauline, who became his second wife.
