Arkady Duchin is already kissing at age 60, but there are things that do not change.
Like the Yarkon, Duchin's melancholy continues to flow.
In a sullen interview, which will be published tomorrow in the "Shishvat" supplement, the artist speaks candidly about the disappointment that no one has been interested in the hip-hop career he has been pursuing for seven years.
"Why not broadcast my new songs? Because it's weird for people that 60's do rap. As long as I'm not senile and geriatric, I keep up to date and love fashion and buy all the latest studio machines at home. But in Israel I can push everything upside down, just because My age.At the same time, I'm a successful record and a well-sounding record, and make a great living thanks to things I created before the age of 50.
"Today, all the stars of the 70s and 80s are being pushed into a niche. A country that burns its past will have no future. People my age have a hard time getting in and being part of this guard, and I accept that. Okay. I lost the urge to make new music in the country. "Therefore, without offending or getting angry, I turn to other channels."
Duchin also has a full stomach for the institutionalized media, which he says fuels violence and separation from personal ties, and he predicts a bleak future for it.
"The media is built on interests. It is true that it has beautiful things, because people are intelligent, but the stench stems from its need to bring blood to dinner. When the old world collapses in favor of the new and good world, the media will disappear first - because it is like the gladiator organizers "They will compete and eat each other. That's why I haven't seen the news for six months. I turned off the TV."
About five months ago he contracted corona, having already been vaccinated twice.
"Those were three weeks of terrible suffering. I coughed myself to death. I did not believe there were such diseases."
When you see the war for and against vaccines, does that not annoy you?
"I will not express an opinion, because it is complex. The people of Israel are a hard-hearted people, and they have to learn from their mistakes. I can not force anyone to get vaccinated. I can only say from experience: if I was not vaccinated, I would not survive. I was dead. I ate shit. "When I got sick after two vaccinations, it's a terrible disease. So make your own judgment. I can not fix a world. Everyone has to fix themselves."
Were we wrong?
Fixed!
