Dimash is very fascinating to me because he is a living example of someone who behaves as if he doesn't 'see' limits or manufactured barriers. I use the word 'manufactured' because these limits or barriers are created by human beings, cultures or historical precedents.
Here's some insight from Sholpan Tabaeva's post. It's translated by Instagram so some of the phrases might be imprecise. https://www.instagram.com/reel/Cy1omtGNW4h/
Dimash's first performance as the People's Artist of Kazakhstan. This honorary title was for some reason abolished in Kazakhstan far back in 1999 and in the 21st century it is acquired for the first time. 8 artists of different genres have been awarded the titles, but Dimash stands as a mansion in this list. And not only because he is now the most popular and well-known artist in the country, glorifying Kazakhstan far beyond its borders. Dimash will certainly go down in the history of Kazakhstan, because his importance goes far beyond vocals, music or stage creativity.
So why is Dimash so special and what does he mean for Kazakhstan? We live in a country that for years was a colonial edge of a great empire and appeared as a sovereign, independent state on the world map just 32 years ago. And that's why our people developed secondary syndrome.
We thought that all the best could be created only in countries that are traditionally great powers, and it was our destiny to create only something of local, or at maximum, regional importance and use. We are used to the fact that the most a Kazakh artist could count on was fame in the USSR or post-Soviet countries. No one even dreamed of world fame. And only Dimash could destroy these syndromes, stereotypes and complexes of ours. He showed us that we are worth something in this world,that we can be the best in it. He blew our minds around.
And this revolution of consciousness is already bearing fruit. Now we see only the beginning, more to come. And Dimash gave a push to all this. In fact, it is very difficult to have big dreams and set a high bar for yourself. Parents usually tell their children that they need to be realistic and set realistic goals. Dimash, his family, showed millions of parents that you should not cut the wings of your children's dreams.
Why shouldn't we let them fly? Is it possible to set a value on all this with some awards and titles? But awards and titles can be an expression of our gratitude and respect. Mostly, the fact is that Dimash from now on holds the title of People's Artist of Kazakhstan but it is actually not necessary for him, he has proven everything to everyone a long time ago. We, you and our country need this.
