The musician Arkady Dukhin tattooed the words "not to forget" on his face - to remind him and those around him not to forget the events of October 7, 2023. In what he said in his public relations man's story, he explained that these two words were meant to remind him not to forget the October 7 massacre but Also remind him of other important things, like "eat healthy".
Since the war broke out, Duchin has been engaged in it day and night.
The last song he released, about a month and a half ago, was following the heavy disaster in the Gaza Strip in which 21 IDF soldiers were killed. He called the song "21", in memory of the 21 soldiers and the 21 families whose worlds were destroyed. "The number 21 reminded me of the Sean Penn movie , which actually means that 21 grams is the specific weight of the soul," Duchin said. "When a person dies, their soul weighs only 21 grams, this number stung me, 21 souls that collapsed under buildings in Gaza made me write this piece with a broken heart."

In early November, Duchin shared with his followers his difficulty making music since the October 7 massacre.
In a post he published on social media, he wrote: "I write, speak, compose, try to compose something, but after October 7, 2023, when we were murdered with unimaginable evil, I no longer believe in songs, words and melodies. It takes time for some truth to be born from me."
In an interview he gave to Walla!
Culture last June, Duchin clarified that he is not a political artist: "I love the left as much as I love the right and I love to play and sing to everyone, because I have love and it will win. If I start making a selection, who do I love? I hate the word Against, because as soon as you are against someone, a division begins, and I think that a division should not be made. We need to find a patent for how the left will embrace the left, because even within the left no one likes anyone and they are at odds among themselves. In my imaginary agenda, the left You need to embrace the left, the right needs to embrace the right, after that the left needs to embrace the right, then everyone needs to embrace the religious and the good Arabs who are not terrorists, of course I don't justify torture. Because you think right or left, you don't have to lose me As the one who sings about man. I believe in man, what to do."
