All Давай (All Davai) is a Kazakh boy band with some kind of modern R'n'B sound. Here are two cute music videos. They have so many videos on YouTube that it's very difficult to choose... There's a nostalgic one, one about a love affair gone wrong... There's even one with Nazis in it!
The first is in Kazakh language, and they're mostly just hanging around, being cute: Zhanym
The next is a hymn to their beloved city, in Russian: Алма-Ата (Almaty)
Remember, people, keep your city colourful and clean!
About us
Tinet - after many years of studying among other things the Russian language and the cultural history of Russia, the Soviet Union and the Middle East, she has moved to one of the many cities of her dreams (Berlin, Germany) and works as a gun for hire for various publishing companies with typesetting, graphic design, translating and writing, besides drawing comics about funny Russians. She dreams of making big fat richly illustrated coffee table books about the images of Central Asian, Caucasian or Russian men from a cultural historic angle.
Ainur - Ph.D. of History at the University of Lund, Sweden, who in her research has focused on nationalism, identity and stereotypes, mainly in the context of Finnish views on Swedes. She also draws historically correct comics about the Jazz age in the 1920's, which also deal with nationalism, identity and stereotypes, in a quite entertaining way.
Tinet and Ainur are sisters, and their ethnic background is as follows: 62.5% Finnish, 25% Mishär Tatar, 12.5% Kale (Finnish Roma).
