Russian rap artist Vasily Vakulenko (Basta) has long established himself as an exemplary family man and father. He now and then appears everywhere with his children and wife. And it's not about excessive publicity, but about boundless love for your family.

History of the Basta family

It is interesting that it was the appearance of Basta's first daughter that became the reason for the legitimization of his relationship with Elena Pinskaya. While still in a civil marriage with Elena, the rapper proposed to his beloved several times, but this was not crowned with success. And only after learning about her situation, she finally said the coveted "yes".

All secrets will be revealed

The rapper's fans wondered for a long time about the name of Basta's daughters, because initially dad kept this information a secret. But soon the media still managed to find out the truth. In 2009, Basta's first daughter, Maria, was born. The young family decided not to stop there, and a couple of years later the rapper's wife gave him another baby. Basta decided to name his second daughter Vasilisa. The rapper did not leave his wife's delivery room for a minute. The rapper considers his daughters and wife his main value. It is the familyis for him the main source of strength and inspiration.

Family and creativity - is it hard to combine?

Rapper Basta sang about love for his wife and daughters more than once in his songs. In mid-2017, a video appeared on the Web in which the rapper performs his hit "Samsara" along with his daughters. The action takes place in the car, where the father himself plays the guitar and sings, and the little ones help him in every possible way. The video received a wide response and a huge number of tender comments.

It is also worth noting that Vasily, as a family man, did not immediately show his children to the world. Photos of Basta's daughters were very difficult to see at first. But now the Runet is full of family pictures, because the children have grown up, which means it's time to show them to the world.

The rapper's family work didn't end there. He uses every opportunity to spend more time in the company of his children. In 2016, Vasily Vakulenko performed on the stage of the Kremlin, accompanied by a symphony orchestra. All the favorite hits sounded in the hall, but the main highlight of the evening was the joint song of Basta with her daughter Masha. The audience was delighted, so the experience of the joint performance of father Vasya and his daughter continued.

So, in 2017, at the next concert, the rapper performed his sensational hit "Sansara" in the company of Masha. Despite such a young age (8 years old), the girl willingly agrees to sing with her father for a huge audience, and he, in turn, helps the little girl overcome her excitement and perform.

Love and understanding is the key toright upbringing

The family, by the way, has long come to terms with the rapper's busy schedule and crowds of fans. The performer himself has repeatedly noted in his interviews that he teaches children by personal example. Basta believes that this is how a worthy generation can be brought up. And it is worth noting that he is a good example not only for his children. Vasily often acts as a judge at various music and vocal competitions.

Vasily Vakulenko, being a versatile person, is engaged not only in the performance of his own songs. For all the time of his work, Basta managed to act in several films, become a director, launch his own clothing line and open a nightclub with the same name Gazgolder.

Despite the constant workload, rapper Basta finds time for his household. His wife, Elena Pinskaya-Vakulenko, admitted that Basta coped better with her second daughter, Vasilisa, than their nanny. At night, the father himself calmed the baby when she cried, or even took her to sleep with him. And when his daughter had a fever in the summer, the rapper could not find a place for himself, he did not leave his daughter and constantly wiped her with a cloth. Vasily's wife has repeatedly said that she cannot imagine a better father for her children.

And though the rapper's performance style seems formidable, at home he turns into a "daddy". Vasily Vakulenko admits that he cannot be angry with his daughters for a long time for their pranks. In addition, screaming and punishment is not the best model of education. The father explains to the children for a long time howwhat to do and what not to do. The rapper says that since the age of five she has been talking to Masha like an adult, without “lisping”, so the girl quite quickly began to think like an adult, and whims faded into the background. Rest with the family for a musician is sacred. On weekends, the family enjoys rollerblading through the park alleys and eating ice cream in front of the TV.

Famous mother-in-law vs popular son-in-law

Vasily has an excellent relationship with his mother-in-law, the famous journalist Tatyana Pinskaya. She has repeatedly said in the press that she is crazy about her son-in-law. Although initially, when the daughter spoke about the affair with the rapper, the mother was categorically against it. But here, oddly enough, Basta's work came to the rescue: Elena showed her mother the poems that Vasily wrote for her at the moment their relationship began. As soon as the future mother-in-law read them, she cried out: “Lena, he is a real talent!” Since then, the relationship between mother-in-law and son-in-law has improved more and more every day.
