Alexandr Doroshenko is, or was, a Russian musician who made music discussing the hardships and struggles of the Russians, the Chechens, and of soldiers and regular parents, struggling to cope with the war.
One of his most famous songs is "Swallowing Dust/Пыль глотаю", also commonly called "Afghan, Afghanistan". The song is an emotional one, and i'll leave a translation of it below.

With this being stated, he has more in his discography, that is not as well known as Swallowing Dust. The Youtube channel "RandomPerson" (https://youtube.com/channel/UCfK6K62wjHDcS1oE-S5WJaw) perviously "RussianBiasMan", has some of his songs uploaded to his channel.
The Youtube channel "Vladimir Telnoy" also has some footage of him. (https://youtube.com/c/%D0%92%D0%BB%D0%B0%D0%B4%D0%B8%D0%BC%D0%B8%D1%80%D0%A2%D0%B5%D0%BB%D1%8C%D0%BD%D0%BE%D0%B9) - This Youtube link looks strange because Youtube cannot handle Cyrillic usernames.
And finally, a website with more of his discography than anyone could've seen. https://ipleer.com/artist/651211-Aleksandr_Doroshenko/
I wonder if Aleksandr is still alive, thinking about the war and his music he made about it...
