Famous Russian singer MakSim is deeply saddened by the unexpected death of Kazan musician Oleg Prozetov. She worked with him at the beginning of her career, and they remained good friends even after she became a major star.
Expressing her emotions, MakSim shared that Oleg played a key role in recording her early songs, including “Zavedi.” “He was always so kind and fun to work with. I still can’t believe he’s gone. Rest in peace, my dear friend, a wonderful musician and a kind-hearted person. I will never forget you,” she wrote.
This is not the first time the singer has faced such a loss. Just a year ago, she had to say a final goodbye to her first producer, Mikhail Kormishin, who helped her record her hit “Trudnyy vozrast.” She often remembers those who supported her at the start of her journey. “One by one, my friends are leaving,” she said with sorrow.
Fans of MakSim are now worried about her emotional state. In 2023, the singer struggled with alcohol addiction, which started after she almost died from pneumonia. She later admitted that she took on too much responsibility after recovering. However, it was her faith in God that helped her break free from her destructive habit. “I believe that at some point, God simply saved me,” she once revealed.
