LILDRUGHILL

LILDRUGHILL, born Mikhail Struev on November 21, 2000, is a Russian multi-genre artist, sound engineer and visual artist who records under the SHMONEY SOUND collective. He began his musical journey in 2015 under the alias C V P Y, appearing on tracks alongside artist BUDDHA KUSH before developing his own distinct sound. In May 2016 he released his first solo track, «ТОЛЬКО ТАК» (Only Like This), under a new stage name, followed shortly after by the mini-album DRUGSTORE, which established the moody, genre-blending style that would define his later work.

His music draws on rap, electronic production, pop hooks and R&B textures, often layered with atmospheric, introspective lyricism. Tracks such as «Терминал» (Terminal), «Тайная Комната» (Secret Chamber), «Помню» (Remember) and «Чудеса» (Miracles) showcase his ability to shift between moody trap-influenced beats and more melodic, emotionally driven compositions, while cuts like «Patapon», «Jet» and «Domino» lean into brighter electronic and pop textures.

As both performer and engineer, LILDRUGHILL is known for handling much of his own sound design and mixing, giving his catalogue a distinctive sonic identity within the Russian underground scene. His work reflects a restless, experimental approach that resists being pinned to a single genre, making him a recognizable figure among fans of alternative Russian hip-hop and electronic-adjacent music.
