Another quite ancient ask.

I would say, the girl bands can't get much traction because girls in Kazakhstan are often expected to get married in their early twenties, so probably not many producers are keen to take such a risk

Also, I've noticed that even if we drop the whole "marriage is a must" narrative, women in Kazakhstan are a lot more pragmatic when it comes to their career choices. So, very few girls would actually goof around doing music or anything of that sort instead of getting real jobs. And, well, having a career and then getting married/having kids, all preferably, before hitting 30, are still kind of a larger expectation for women

In that sense, men seem to be more adventurous, feeling a lot more confident in their artistic pursuits, because the clock "isn't ticking", bringing less sense of urgency overall

Although, I should add, men have their own obsessive ideas of becoming rich/famous/influential asap, so probably becoming a rapper can be viewed as a quick way to reach success

On the flip side, this mentality comes with a massive share of the male population having legitimate gambling addiction along with insurmountable debts, all because of the inherent sense of privilege, extremely fragile egos, and inability to be disciplined, consistent and build a reliable career

Honestly, I would say this society is largely being upheld by competent women, while men are hanging around, doing some random shit, expecting to be worshipped/hailed because of their mere existence

Мама мне говорила: “Не сиди, обняв колени” А я до сих пор не понимаю, почему я всё ещё так сижу. Мы чужие друг другу? Под одним солнцем мы чужие друг другу? В мире на самом деле все чужие другу другу? Если так продолжится Потеряется смысл истинного счастья! Именно так и есть....

Старая пластинка все чаще играет в моем сердце и не дает мне убежать, Я вижу её пыльное состояние и сгораю изнутри, Хочу протереть её, но пятна не выводятся, И почему теперь я должен таскать за собой труп счастья? Мне срочно нужна машина времени, Шепот был ярче крика, но я и не заметил этого, Там были правдивые глаза, а сейчас я поменялся в улыбке.
