Arthur Shmygin, aka rapper Luxor, was born in Buryatia in the city of Ulan-Ude on December 26, 1990. His father was a military man, and therefore he grew up in accordance with strict rules and discipline. We got up at 8 a.m. and had to go to bed before 12 p.m.
But his father always welcomed Arthur's passion for music. It seemed to him that it was better for his son to spend time being creative than to get involved with bad company, which would lead him to problems.
Growing up
IN school age Shmygin went in for sports. He did not think that he would become a rapper, since he was not particularly interested in music. Only after graduation, he became a student at VSTU with a degree in real estate appraiser and discovered the work of rap artists: “50 CENT” and “Eminem”.
He began to practice using their example and soon wrote his first texts. Only after some time he plucked up courage and showed the work to Alagui Egorov, who is his longtime friend. He appreciated them and wrote music for them.
In his childhood, Arthur played football and did not think about being like anyone. He managed to live here and now, without thinking about the future. He speaks excellent Buryat, Russian, and English.
Career
Arthur Shmygin and Alagui recorded their debut album in six months. Only then did they realize that it was not worth releasing it into circulation. The second attempt was more successful. They published more than 200 copies of the album, which they bought in 1 day.
Luxor performed in clubs at this time. In 2015, his online track “You’re Under the Influence” became very popular. Following this, he released several more songs and history repeated itself. In 2015, the video “My Brother” was released.
4 days later he released the track “Impulse” with Alaguy and presented the track “XXX” and shot a video for it. The year was very fruitful, Luxor continued to delight fans with its creativity, filmed videos and released songs.
Today Luxor is still in demand. He presented a video for the tracks “LUV” in 2017, as well as “Big Massacre”, published the video “Goddess”, released the songs “Outro” and “Networks”.
At the beginning of 2018, Luxor presented a work with Alaguy “Fashionable”, “Balenciaga”, in March presented the tracks “Brunette” and “Jolly and Drunk.” Now Luxor is busy working on an EP, which should have been released much earlier, but Arthur delayed it a little.
He calls the most difficult thing in his work the ability to turn off the phone, forget about the world around him and gather his thoughts to write new poems. He draws his inspiration from creativity, admitting that for him this activity brings incredible pleasure.
Personal life
It is known that Arthur is married to a girl named Alexandra. Their wedding took place on August 19, 2017. He doesn’t often give interviews, and he doesn’t particularly like to share news from his personal life, but he once noted that he was very lucky to have the love of his life next to him.
Alexandra accepts him as he is, turning a blind eye to financial problems, because a lot of money has to be invested in creative development.
Hobbies and interesting facts

- He prefers to spend his free time relaxing. He sleeps until lunchtime.
- He imagines his ideal vacation next to his wife at the sea with a glass of Bacardi Black and mango.
