The Russian Ministry of Defense said that the entertainer would form "two creative brigades on the front" and focus on providing their armies with "moral, political and psychological support".
The tactics were taken over by the Red Army, which used 2,000 “creative brigades” during the Second World War to strengthen morality and is part of an endeavor to pay more attention to the soldiers after chaotic mobilization and a number of defeats on the battlefield in Ukraine excited the public anger.
This week, military commanders Wladimir Putin informed about the state of the Russian front, and on Saturday the Russian Defense Minister Sergei Schoigu also visited units in the occupied parts of South Ukraine.
But the British Ministry of Defense said that the actual mission of the Russian “creative brigades” was to strengthen the Kremlin propaganda and they would have a limited influence on morality.
"The concerns of the soldiers mainly focus on very high number of victims, poor leadership, wage problems, lack of equipment and ammunition as well as lack of clarity about the goals of the war," it said.
But not only the Russian soldiers need propaganda upstream from the Kremlin's point of view.
Putin has rely on state television to project his propaganda onto the Russian population, but surveys show that people are increasingly bored by hours of monologues and tirades.
This has forced Kremlin strategists to turn to other popular forms of entertainment to promote Putin's agenda, including songs, a powerful news medium in Russia.

"He has the full power of the Yeseni (river), his will is stronger than the Urals. Our enemies will instantly dispel our enemies, it is ready to enforce the verdict," sings Mr. Maidanov in a video, the recordings of a calm Russian landscape with ranks of military musicians and a Sarmat rocket that is scattered, which is cut off as a test.
Mr. Maidanov is a member of Putin's party some Russia and a decisive supporter of the war.

It was dedicated to the promotion of the Wagner mercenary group supported by the Kremlin, which recruited from Russian prisons and kills people with shelter.
