On March 16, 1967, Oleg Petrovich Titarenko was born in Odessa. "People hawala" him under the name Bogdan Titomir. This is how the artist outlined his attitude towards fans in Sergei Parfenov's program "Portrait in the background".
Childhood
From Odessa, the family of the future star moved to Severodonetsk, then to Sumy. There, the boy graduated from school and additionally received a sports and music education. Swimming team or piano? Bogdan chooses Gnesinka, and he is chosen by the Ministry of Defense. After the service, he never returned to school.
First success
Returning from the army, Bogdan works as an arranger in the studio "Laskoviy May" and performs in the collective of the singer Vladimir Maltsev. Sergei Lemokh plays keyboards for Maltsev. In 1989 Titomir and Lemokh recorded the only joint album of the exotic-pop group Kar-Man. The project becomes the discovery of the year, receives the "Ovation" award. The country's discos and stadiums have been dancing to these songs for two generations. In 1991, during the recording of the group's second album, the musicians decided to part ways. Lemokh rewrote all the arrangements of his songs for solo, and the shocking Titomir left the band for producer Sergei Lisovsky.
Solo career
Lisovsky promotes the aggressively sexual image of Titomir. In support of the solo album, they invent and actively advertise the High Energy youth movement. CNN journalists are invited to Moscow to shoot a report about the first hip-hopper in Russia. It was then, to Parfenov's question: “Why are you singing all sorts of garbage?” Titomir would say: “So what? - people hawala! . During that period, Titomir recorded three albums. In the wake of success, Bogdan hits all the hard. He begins to use and sell drugs, makes enemies in the criminal environment. In the end, finding no other way out of the problems, he disappears from the scene for several years, leaves the country and becomes a US citizen.
Return
In 2007, Bogdan Titomir announces his return with concerts in Kiev and Moscow. Over the years of emigration, he independently got rid of drug addiction, became a vegetarian and Buddhist, studied new trends in rap music and the club movement. Evgeny Antimoniy invites Bogdan as a DJ (DJ Bo) to his club "Gazgolder", helps him with money and connections. Titomir releases a video remake of his song "Do as I Do" and three solo albums of new and old songs. Bogdan is not limited only to a career as a singer and DJ. He plays in musical films on TV. Records duets with Timati, Vaikule, Sofia Rudyeva, and other stars. He hosts the show "Striptease Stars". The artist plans to shoot a porn film and a techno-opera.
Love
According to Titomir, he has no wife and children. There was only one love in his life. Once, after a concert, a young fan burst into Bogdan's dressing room and stayed in his life for five years. Having lived in a civil marriage, Titomir and his chosen one expressed their desire to get married and have children. The girl's parents intervened and forcibly took their daughter home. Bogdan constantly appears in public in the company of young beautiful girls. Sofia Rudieva (Miss Russia 2009), Rimma Agafoshina (assistant to L. Yakubovich at the Field of Miracles), Anna Igoshina (soloist of the Barkhat group) do not hide their past relationship with Bogdan. But he never became a husband.
Wife and daughter
The whole life of Bohdan Titomir is a series of conflicting stories, scandals and legends that he himself cultivates. Recently, a girl from Odessa, Daria Titomir, appeared on the Dom-2 project. The heroine said that she was married to a man much older than herself. She does not deny or confirm her relationship with the famous artist. Bogdan Titomir also does not comment on the connection with Daria in any way. By age, she could be his wife or daughter. It is unlikely, but perhaps we got a new card in the layout of Bogdan Titomir's PR company. Time will tell…
