Dimash spoke to his fellow citizens in Kazakh and foreign fans in English between songs. The singer said he was happy to perform in his homeland. He repeated the most relevant word in the world today at the end of each performance – “BIRLIK,” which means peace in English.

The Kazakh singing sensation stormed the international music industry in January 2017 after sweeping the Chinese vocal competition The Singer. Dimash does not restrict his performance style to a specific vocal range – he sings as a countertenor and even a female soprano. The singer often cites such musical legends as Yermek Serkebayev, Michael Jackson, Celine Dion, Lara Fabian, and Luciano Pavarotti as the leading influencers of his creativity.
