Khrystyna Solovay admitted to being in debt to Svyatoslav Vakarchuk: $27, 000 for her work
The young Ukrainian singer Khrystyna Solovii revealed her financial obligations to the legendary soloist of the band "Ocean Elsa" Svyatoslav Vakarchuk. In a recent interview on the YouTube channel, Khrystyna said that she owed Vakarchuk almost $30, 000.
A debt to Vakarchuk: The creative path of Khrystyna Solova
According to Solova, she owes Vakarchuk $27, 000 for supporting her music career under his production. These funds were used to create music videos and record songs, which helped her find her place in the Ukrainian music industry.
"This is my debt... It's no secret that I was under his production for quite a long time and, relatively speaking, the funds that I used for my creativity, namely, music videos, song recordings, are the amount that I I owe it to him. It's not a requirement to give in a short period of time. I don't have that much money either, if everyone thinks I earn that much. I think I'll manage it in time, " says Khrystyna Solovi.
Relationship with Vakarchuk: Gratitude and misunderstanding
Khrystyna also thanked her producer for financial support, but noted that she would like more communication and participation from him. She admitted that she tried to discuss her musical desires with him, but encountered a communication barrier.
"I am very grateful to him that I had such an opportunity... I wanted much more from him, I wanted him to be more involved in the creative process and somehow communicate with me. And then it turned into some kind of credit for me." - said the singer.
Termination of the contract: Was there a misunderstanding?
The collaboration between Khrystyna Solova and Svyatoslav Vakarchuk lasted for ten years, but ended last fall. The singer believes that the reason for the break was her desire to find her own musical style and not imitate the sound of "Ocean Elsa".
"There were no scandals. Now I don't feel comfortable talking, because Svyatoslav is a closed person. There was a very strong emotional closeness between us. At one point, I didn't control it. I tried to talk to him about it several times, but he was very closed and put a wall between us wall. I think it was like a careless statement. I said several times that I don't want my music to sound like Elsa's Ocean. I think it offended him, " Khrystyna said.
Despite all the difficulties, Khrystyna Solovay does not lose her optimism and is confident that she will be able to repay the debt. She continues to work on her own creativity and hopes for a better future.
