The information about the cancellation of Egor Kreed's concert in Makhachkala, after the singer received threats, has nothing to do with reality, the representative of the music label, with which the singer works, has stated.

Earlier, the Ministry of Internal Affairs (MIA) of Dagestan promised not to admit the disruption of the concert, scheduled in Makhachkala for September 9.

After the announcement of the concert in Makhachkala, Egor Kreed received in the Instagram a lot of insults and threats with calls not to come to the capital of Dagestan. In the opinion of the Orientalists, interviewed by the "Caucasian Knot", the lenient attitude towards the protests of religious youth, who refers to Islamic norms, indicates the inability of the authorities to protect the secular institutions of the state.

Against the background of threats in social networks, Egor Kreed announced his desire to close his page in Instagram.

However, so far, there were no official reports about any possible cancellation of Egor Kreed's concert in Makhachkala.

Let us remind you that in August, Khabib Nurmagomedov, a mixed martial arts (MMA) fighter, a native of Dagestan, criticized the youth for singing and dancing at the concert of the rap group "HammAli & Navai" in Makhachkala. His statements caused controversy in social networks, after which the athlete wrote a post with excuses.
