Kazakhstan’s Dimash Kudaibergen Lights Up Times Square

Kazakh singer Dimash Kudaibergen’s latest song, "Love’s Not Over Yet," is currently being broadcast on digital billboards in New York’s Times Square. According to DimashNews, the initiative was organized by a U.S.-based fan group, US Dears. The music video is being displayed on four screens at three different locations, including a prominent site featuring both a main and overhead screen. One of these locations, near a subway station, ensures that a large number of passersby can view the broadcast. Prior to this, Dimash’s fans arranged a private premiere screening of the video in a rented hall, which was attended by representatives of Kazakhstani media. In February, Rolling Stone published an article highlighting Kudaibergen’s achievements, including his recognition at the 2024 Distinctive International Arab Festivals Awards (DIAFA) for his contributions to the global music industry. The award ceremony took place in November 2024 in Dubai. Additionally, SPIN magazine recently featured the singer in an article titled Dimash Kudaibergen: A Parisian Triumph of Music, Art and Fashion. The piece detailed his visit to the Alpange music salon in Paris, where he performed SOS d’un Terrien en Détresse alongside French pianist Van Tuan. The article also teased the release of Love’s Not Over Yet. Dimash Kudaibergen is a Kazakh singer, composer, and multi-instrumentalist, renowned for his vocal range spanning seven octaves and seven semitones, from deep bass to the whistle register. In 2023, he was honored with the title of People's Artist of Kazakhstan.
