Biography

Miron Yanovich Fyodorov was born in 1985 in Leningrad, in a family of Russian Jews. His father is a theoretical physicist of the Konstantinov Institute of Nuclear Physics in St. Petersburg and his mother is a librarian. In St. Petersburg, Miron attended secondary school No. 185. When Fyodorov was 9 years old, his family emigrated to Essen, Germany. During his studies in Maria WΓ€chtler School, Miron had a 'tense relationship' with his classmates because of his social standing and poor German. At the age of 13, Fyodorov began to write lyrics and rap in German and Russian under the name MC Mif. When he was 15, the Fyodorovs moved to Slough, England. In 2004, Miron Fyodorov began studying at the University of Oxford, Balliol College in the faculty of English. During his studies Fyodorov was the president of the Russian community of Oxford. In 2006 he was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and had to stop studying, however he managed to continue studying after a break. In June 2008 he graduated from the university with a degree in English literature.
After university, Fyodorov moved to the East End where he restarted his musical career under the name Oxxxymiron. The name is derived from his first name Miron, rhetorical device oxymoron and triple X, representing the large amount of profanity in his lyrics. He was not able to find a job because of his perceived overqualification and had to work as a cashier, a translator, a loader, a guide, a stallman, a tutor, an MC and an office clerk.

In 2009 Oxxxymiron participated in the 14th independent battle on Hip-Hop.ru and reached the semi-finals. One of the main intrigues of the battle was the correspondence confrontation of Oxxxymiron and underground anonymous rapper, which was expressed in mutual disses against each other in the tracks of both performers. However, due to the departure of Miron after the 8th round, the face-to-face confrontation between them never took place.
On 26 and 31 July of the same year, Miron's first concerts took place in Kyiv and Odesa.

2017–present

On 28 September 2017 it was announced that Oxxxymiron will star in the film adaptation of Victor Pelevin’s novel Empire V. The film's director is Victor Ginzburg, famous for the screen version of the novel Generation "П".
In September 2019, Oxxxymiron unexpectedly took part in the 17th Independent Battle on Hip-Hop.ru and passed the track for the first qualifying round. After that, a certain wave of excitement began around the event, and many famous hip-hop artists also participated.
On 1 November 2021 Oxxxymiron published a ten-minute-long music video Who killed Mark?. On 12 November Fyodorov's third mixtape, miXXXtape III: Time of Troubles, was released. It included 36 songs from 2014 to 2021 and two new tracks among them. The nine-minute single Who killed Mark?, which preceded the release of the mixtape, was not included in the playlist of the record.
In reaction to the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, Oxxxymiron called for an anti-war movement, stating, "I know that most people in Russia are against this war, and I am confident that the more people would talk about their real attitude to it, the faster we can stop this horror." He cancelled six sold-out concerts in Moscow and St. Petersburg, stating, "I cannot entertain you when Russian missiles are falling on Ukraine. When residents of Kyiv are forced to hide in basements and in the metro, while people are dying." He later said that it was impossible to hold an anti-war concert in Russia because "total censorship has been implemented, and anyone who speaks out against the war in any way becomes a potential target for criminal prosecution." He went on to announce a series of benefit concerts in other countries, entitled "Russians Against War", the proceeds from which would be donated to NGOs helping Ukrainian refugees. The first of these concerts was held in Istanbul, which has a large Russian diaspora consisting of people who left the country in protest of the invasion.
