Dimash - Smoke - My Reaction & Thoughts 

Another technical lecture. Ugh

You're wrong Dimash speaks excellent English and communicates with his fans at concerts.And Dimash wrote the music for this song.

This was not a cover. Dimash with some help, made this song. He can speak English, his language is Kasack, and Russian. There is another MV coming soon. He is just the best. Thanks for your reaction. Dimash is Dimash.

Dimash es un genio musical en este tema él también es el coro también toca las cuerdas de su instrumento tradicional dombra canta en inglés baila algo más que se le pueda pedir el canta fonéticamente en 16 idiomas diferentes y habla tres o cuatro a la perfección el inglés los está dominando hace rato que habla en inglés sabe lo que dice lo que hace domina el ruso pensemos que viene de un idioma muy duro muy fuerte siempre va a tener su acento es algo que a él tampoco le molesta porque ama su idioma kazajo su lengua natal y donde pueda va a cantar en kazajo lo que se está abriendo al mundo para que más gente lo conozca de la parte occidental esto simplemente fue de una genialidad de otro mundo

Also this is not a cover, it is his own song. Check your facts. Read the notes under the original video.

It is a dombra (an instrument from his land) and it is played by Dimash himself. You are really very good in your analysis, thank you very much.🙏🏻🤍

He speaks English. His native tongue is Kazakh. He also speaks Russian and now English, bit of Mandarin Chinese.

Está en todas las plataformas musicales ❤❤❤❤

Great reaction. Dimash speaks English. Btw that guitar/violin is a Dombra - a traditional Kazakh instrument. Dimash’s own composition - he is amazing in every sense of the word🙏🇦🇺

He actually does speak English, he has an accent and so do many people. He gave a concert in NY in 2019 and I was there. He spoke English for the three hours of the concert. This is not a cover. Dimash composed this music. He speaks Kazakh, Russian, and English.

This is not a cover but his own composition. He speaks English.

The backing vocals were recorded by Dimash himself (14 audio tracks in total), and 1 audio track performed by Dmitro Gordon was added. The strings are a part on the dombra (a traditional Kazakh instrument), also performed by Dimash himself.

He does speak English at this point. His native language is Kazakh. He did so in NYC concert Dec. 2019

He speaks a lot of English now, he lived in LA for 6 months last year. I do believe he plans on coming back to the USA. He's been working on new material, like Smoke and When I've Got You. There are fan cams of this song when he sang it in Hong Kong.

Yes, as you've already read, Dimash does speak English, but I think he will be one of those people who will always have a very heavy accent. That comes through in his pronunciation. His accent is from his native Kazakh language. Thanks for the reaction!

When reading the credits for this video… you will see that Dimash plays the Dombra through out this piece.

струнные-это домбра,Димаш сам играет на ней!И кстати-Димаш учит английский и уже хорошо на нем говорит!

He premiered this new song in the Hong Kong concert last year composed while he was living in LA last year. He apparently wrote 5 new songs during that time, co-produced with Dimytro Gordon who gave a very interesting interview on the process of working with Dimash on these two extremely different songs. One being very modern and electronic and the other being more traditional rock/blues with real instruments although it is Dimash playing the dombra on this particular track.

Thank for your lovely words...Dimash by the way speaks and improving his English; the instrument you didn't recognize is DOMBRA, from Kazakistan. He composed the music.

Queremos ver tus emociones visualmente con respeto y sin afán de herirte……si queremos ver el video solo, pues nos vamos al canal de Dimash no crees? Queremos verte

Great Breakdown… you have a very keen ear, too bad your batteries were dead, would have loved to compare your “stink face” to the one I realized was plastered on my face as I head this track for the first time….! He never ceases to amaze all of us Dears, and I suspect he never will…! 😎

И вам спасибо за интересный анализ музыки Димаша, между прочим, он является композитором этой песни. ♥♥♥

This is his original song composed by Dimash, please don't say its a cover if you don't know. I understand you may watch others that rely on singing covers but Dimash has written his own songs for many years. On this song the strings, both of them are on Dimash's Dombra which he plays on this song. You need to know that Dimash is a world famous artist with fans from most countries in the world. He is currently on a world tour with his "Stranger" solo stadium tour, next concerts are 4th May in Budapest, Hungary then 24th May is his huge 30th birthday concert in Istanbul, Turkey, others to be announced. His name is Qudaibergen no ov unless you are saying his name in Russian which I guess you dont speak. Dimash speaks English quite well, he has a lovely Kazakh accent which is not so strong, we, his Dears love his beautiful accent and is only slight. He is human though, he sometimes makes small mistakes but he speaks Kazakh and Russian fluently and is pretty well fluent in English.He has sung in 15 languages so far. He often sings a song of the country his concert tours take him. His concerts are epic. There is an official video of Smoke coming up soon. Most likely Dimash came up with the plot, the action etc, and he normally works closely with the director to make sure that his vision was made perfectly. He not only composes his own songs, he has his ideas put into English lyrics. He is also a skilled music producer, does his own music production, has his own creative centre, production company, and record label. On this one and most of his songs he layers his own voice for the backing vocal/choir, as he can sing in any octave it makes sense and sounds incredible. He also likes to include traditional Kazakh instruments in all his music, sometimes subtle sometimes as a featured instrument. This time, not what you though was a guitar, Dimash played his Dombra on the song as he said could hear it in his head when playing the song back so added it to great effect. He plays the dombra expertly, I think it sounds great. Btw the dombra has just 2 strings and its a type of lyre from Kazakhstan.❤ Dimash doesn't use pitch correction he doesn't need it ❤ Dimash is an extremely intelligent young man who is highly educated both academically and musically from the age of 5 up to his PhD which he should finish soon. He is also a multi instrumentalist ❤ Dimash is widely recognised as the greatest vocalist on the planet ❤

Sorry sir , but you are wrong, he does speak English. (He has been improving in the language). He speaks Kazakh & Russian perfectly, learning Mandrin & in my opinion doing great in English. Thank you. Ohio, USA

Wow, Dimash has come a long way & learned English. He is able to communicate in English.

😊❤

Thanks for your interesting reaction. Smoke was written by Dimash and as far as I know he plays the dombra (what you think is a guitar)🤣

If you listen to Unforgettable Day the Gaku version in that one he goes from a C8 to a D8 which is of the piano. He doesn’t use auto tune. He’s the best and continually works on getting better. He is also an instrumentalist, masters in composition. Many of his songs are composed by him or if in another language he gives other composer the idea of what he wants to convey in his songs. The Story of One Sky took him about 3 years to compose the music and got help when writing the lyrics to English. He has about 25 years of music school and working on his doctorate in musicology. He also has voice lessons and practices every day. Plus he also prepares for his concerts and shows and practice with his band and friends.

He actually speaks English pretty well now and is spending more time in the U.S. When he first appeared on "The Singer" in 2017, he only new a few English phrases. But you're right that since he sings in15-20 different languages so far, he does need to memorize the pronunciation. His native tongues are Kazakh and Russian.

Excelente análisis! Gracias por ayudarme a comprender en realidad lo grande que es Dimash! Saludos desde México! ❤️🇲🇽💕❤️🇲🇽🇲🇽❤️🇲🇽💕

Live and learn. 😊 Great reaction. I hope you can hear Dimash live one day. ❤❤❤

❤❤DIMASH BEST DIMASH Fenomenal Artist ❤❤

Drew, no diffidence, off handedness, straightforward the presence of greatness, hard for some, not for those with a depth of perception and a check into the making of it and I thank you

This is a video production. For his live performance of this song see his Hong Kong concert in December 2023 where song was first introduced live.

Saludos las cuerdas es Dimash tocando Dombra y los coros es la voz de Dimash en no se sabe cuantas capas 😂😂😂 gracias me encanto tu analicis ❤

Thank you for reaction. Dimash does speak English and quit well at that.. but I noticed your not subscribed to Dimash's channel... Looking forward to your next one. Thank you

Thank you for a very interesting reaction and commentary! I love how adventurous, exploratory, and daring he is in his own fusions. Such a creative Artist! ❤

I loved the chorus of voices at the end of the song. Dimash is soooooo good!!

This song is FIRE 🔥 I love it so much. ❤❤❤

I have to say that I was struggling to like this song even though I am a “Dear” and follow Dimash faithfully. After listening to you break it down, it totally changed my mind. Thank you so much!🎶🎶

Lovely informative reaction! 👍thank you!❤️

Thanks for your explanation and reaction.❤😊❤

The instrument on the background is dombra

Gracias por reaccionar a nuestro querido Dimash!!!Saludos desde Argentina 👋👋🇦🇷

Thank you for a great reaction. Love your enthusiasm for Dimash’s music and expertise. He will be putting out a music video for this song with a gangster theme. Soon (that is an insider fan/Dear joke). Please check out his MV for When I’lve Got You. Everything about it is amazing. In addition to Dimash’s stellar vocals, you will love all the background music and elements as well.

Another great success for Dimash. Bravo!!!

New track ‘Smoke’. Interview with music producer Dmytro Gordon: «You brought a dombra with you to LA», I asked. To which he replied: «Every true Kazakh has to have a dombra at their home». So, he brought the dombra to the studio next time, and composed the parts for it.

Before we joked about saying #Dinglish 😅How nice you have highlighted his English, it has been a challenge for him, he is always worried because from Kazakh to English there is a big difference and the accent is strong. The difference between 2027 of your English until now is incredible!!

Thank you for this reaction. I enjoyed it thoroughly.

Hey, not a cover, Dimash composed this last year when he spent several months in Los Angeles. Dimash speaks English very well, including in interviews. His native language is Kazakh, and he is equally fluent in Russian. There's no point in discussing "pitch correction" when analying Dimash, it's irrelevant! Dimash sings all the harmonies on Smoke and plays the Dombra.More Dimash please, including your face! ❤

Dimash sings in 13 languages, he has been applauded by other countries how perfect his words and feelings are after learning the languages IN WEEKS, yet western snobs nit pick on slight, very slight changes in English, yet you can STILL understand him. I can not believe that THATS what someone would point at, when he's a master of genres and octaves! OMG people bring your heads out of your b***s

I really emjoyed your breakfown of his vocal and the music! I would like you to go back to his earlier live performances in the Singer competition. An analysis of Dimash's Adagio, Autumn Strong, or Opera 2 would be awesome!

THANKS for your reactions to Dimash!!!!

You're wrong. Dimash does speak English. He has a heavy accent. But he's improved quite a bit in the last few years. He speaks fluent Kazakh and Russian. Tiny bit of Mandarin. But most other foreign laguages he sings in are done phonetically.

Great analysis❤

I thoroughly enjoyed your reaction! Love how you analyzed the instruments in the background! ❤ They are one of the reasons (apart from the operatic vocals and Dimash being in perfect control), that make this so much more than a simple pop song. 🤩 Have you heard the cool scifi sounds in the second half of the high chorus part? So unique and interesting! 🛸👽 Then there is a dombra and a bass and clapping and many Dimash-voices in the background. 👏🏼🎸🎶 I‘m loving this more and more! He even composed this himself and produced it with Dmytro Gordon. This is catchy as 🔥😉 Even though he doesn’t speak most of the languages he sings in, he has learned English recently. It’s not perfect yet. But he improved very much! ❤ Thank you for this great analysis! I subscribed 😊

That picking of strings is Dimash playing a Dombra. Also this is his original composition, not a cover

Although i liked your reaction. 😊

Who told you that Dimash doesn't speak English?😂🤔

Thank you for your analysis. ❤ I truly enjoyed this even if I only heard your voice.😊

💜💜💜

❤

DOMBRA is instrument national of Kazahstan

I am very sorry, but Dimash speaks English better and more fluently in the last 2 years. He didn't know English back in 2017 But you're right that out of 15 languages he sings in, he doesn't speak 11 😁🥰

🙌🔥👍

It’s not a violin in the background, it is a dombra(a Kazakh instrument)

Lo que se escucha no es un violín es un Dombra, es un instrumento de Kazajistán y Dimash lo sabe tocar muy bien

2:10 not true, his engilsh is improving, he is able to comunicate in english now without a problems. but 2-3 years ago it was true. also he still has an accent :)

По поводу его английского, многим реакционерам понятна причина акцента Димаша, и даже многим нравится его акцент. Они с уважением относятся к этому и это им не мишает делать большой акцент его вокальным данным!!! Вы наверно мало знакомы с репертуаром Димаша. У него было большое творческое сотрудничество с композитором Игорем Крутым. Послушайте песни специально написанные им для Димаша под его вокал. Так же песни написанные самим Димашем ещё с молодости. Его клипы, его мини фильм, реквием "История одного неба". Песня из этого реквиема феноменальна, многие реакционеры отмечают, что аналогов этой песни нет, многие годы повторить перепеть эту песню будет невозможно. Кстати написана на английском языке. А если совсем понять Димаша, надо послушать живое исполнение этого реквиема во время его концерта в Алматы. Не знаю, может вы и слышали его песни и знаете его, если нет то послушайте его репертуар. А так, спасибо за реакцию! ❤

🙂

Dal vivo è uguale, vedi Hong Kong concert dicembre 2023

❤😂😂😂

PS: no violin, no cello, it's a Dombra, Kazakh national instrument.😉

This is Dombra instrument from Kazahstan

Nice reaction❤ I always enjoy Dimash ❤

That is not true about his speaking English. He is conversational in English at this time. This is fantastic. He went to L.A. and was influenced with R&B/blues/soul/rock etc. Dimash's vocals are immaculate and don't need auto tune. This video is wonderful with it's layering. Dimash's fantastic vocals and he also added the dombra and other layering in the production.

Anche a me sembra una chitarra acustica, ma si parla di dombra!

Subscribed from Chile!! I loved your reaction, I just wish I didn't have to wait another year for another reaction. I strongly recommend that you check out his MASTERPIECE, it took him 3 years to compose it along with a music video that seems like a short film worthy of any film festival, there he puts all his voices, colors, tones, ranges with lyrics that are basically a call to peace. THE STORY OF ONE SKY: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1Psjws97FoA.html

His English is at a conversational level. Of course with an accent and he gets some small things wrong, but he gets help on his English for studio recordings so his pronunciation should be solid and mostly accurate. And yes. This is an original song. He does relatively few covers these days as he only really did it to help him achieve his initial fame. I'd recommend not assuming something is a cover unless you know the original

Saludos cordiales desde México a todos los dears de dimash 😍😍😍 Suscrita esperando más reacciones a nuestro amado dimash 😍😍 Excelente análisis y bienvenido a la familia dears de dimash ❤❤❤🎉

💗💗💗💗🌸

❤❤

Dimash's native tong is Kazakh. Seriously, how can you call yourself a fan and know absolutely nothing about the artist?

You should not use terms like he absolutely does not speak English that is ridiculous. Dimash does speak English. He of course, is not fluent in English and speaks with an accent, although he is becoming more fluent every day and having spent quite a bit of time in America, learning English as an immersive language, he also is learning and speaks Several dialects of Chinese Along with the others, my fellow dears have already put forward. all of that While also playing mini different instruments, and working on his PhD in composition, as well as writing, the music or lyrics for many of his own songs

Excuse me! Dimash does speak English. Not perfect of course, but enough to hold a conversation. Please check your facts. Yours are about 5 years old

👉Wow!! How can you not fall in love with Dimash when he appears as a 'bad boy' in (devilish) red with sensual movements and makes the girls dance for him like on strings... and that voice! It gets into you and you become addicted and just want more Dimash. The song's premiere took place on December 23, 2023 at Dimash's STRANGER concert in Hong Kong. * Smoke - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2gzCOkbcc64.html Music: Dimash Qudaibergen Text: Candice Kelly, Dmytro Gordon

Шановний автор каналу,в описі під відео Дімаша написано хто композитор пісні,для чого ви фантазуйте,вам що важко було прочитати?Я вибачаюсь,але ви не знаєте нічого про Дімаша ,з чого ви вирішили,що він не знає англійської мови?Це було 7років назад!За ці роки він добре вивчив мову!

Hi, I'll correct you, but Dimash speaks English.

Qué patética reacción!! 😂😂😂...dedícate a respirar aire y no humo
