Boombl4 possibly pursuing rap career after Na’Vi kick scandal
Kirill “Boombl4” Mikhaylov is known for coordinating Natus Vincere’s Major championship, but his next hustle could be making rap music full-time.
Former Natus Vincere Counter-Strike: Global Offensive player Boombl4 may be starting a music career after his abrupt kick from his former team. The in-game leader has posted multiple videos of himself rapping on social media. Boombl4 has previously sung and rapped in promotional materials for the Na’Vi CSGO squad.
The move comes after Boombl4’s controversial removal from the Major-winning Natus Vincere CSGO roster. A separation and subsequent controversy was possibly spurred by an image of Boombl4’s girlfriend seemingly supporting Russia during its ongoing conflict with Ukraine. Boombl4 originally proposed to her after winning the $2 million Stockholm Major in late 2021.
