I want to promote the wonderful channel of Artem @[1476954747:2048:Artem Lyskov], where he reads great poems (and not only).

Once, as Nadya and I were walking, I asked her — why isn’t the genre of poetry well-represented on YouTube? Well… rap doesn’t count. It’s both new and old at the same time, and it can “take off” if presented well with quality content. I suddenly thought of Filatov from the contemporary scene. And no one else. The genre has vanished. Nadya then replied that I am following a feed of IT people, while in her humanities feed, poetry appears much more frequently. And that today, there are far more opportunities for self-expression, and people can’t focus on everything at once, and popular genres “win”. She reminded me of Artem. He has been in my feed for a long time, and I joyfully listen to these recordings. Thanks, Artem! Lately, they have been coming out about once a week. I hope it lasts.

I’ve known Artem for a long time, and we meet from time to time. He is genuine in these videos, just as he is in life. Currently, videos with his poetry have just a few hundred views, and I think that’s unfairly few 🙂

Highly recommended.
