Небольшой дополнение.

Роли Сергея Безрукова из этого ролика:
1. Человек в костюме с hands-free — Ираклий, "Ирония судьбы. Продолжение"
2. Брюнет с бакенбардами — Александр Пушкин, "Пушкин. Последняя дуэль"
3. Блондин в рубашке и штанах на подтяжках — Сергей Есенин, "Есенин"
4. Брюнет в черной одежде и с пистолетом с глушителем — Саша Белый, "Бригада"
5. Шатен с длинными волосами с бородой, в белой одежде — Иешуа Га-Ноцри "Мастер и Маргарита"
6. Брюнет в черной одежде и с гитарой — Владимир Высоцкий, "Высоцкий. Спасибо, что живой".

"Помощь зала" от Дмитрия Диброва (слева направо):
1. Николай Валуев. Боксер, депутат Государственной думы.
2. Александр Кержаков. Футболит "Зенита" и сборной России. Хороший игрок^{[citation needed]}, но на Чемпионате Европы 2012 года промахнулся по воротам столько раз, что его "меткость" вошла в историю.
3. Митхун Чакраборти. Популярный индийский актер
4. Дмитрий Медведев (+Владимир Путин)

Передачи Елены Малышевой иногда заставляют думать, что она один из демонов Ада, посланный нам за наши грехи. Настолько это ужасно. Отсюда такое ее представление.

According to Wikipedia, Valuev is 213 cm tall and weighs almost 150 kg, making him one of the biggest and heaviest "heavyweight" boxers of all time.

2. Александр Кержаков. Футболит "Зенита" и сборной России. Хороший игрок, но на Чемпионате Европы 2012 года промахнулся по воротам столько раз, что его "меткость" вошла в историю.
3. Митхун Чакраборти. Популярный индийский актер
4. Дмитрий Медведев (+Владимир Путин)

They also appeared in "Ninja Action 3," along with:

4. Леонид Володарский (professional translator also known for dubbing Hollywood movies into Russian)
8. Алексей Навальный (opposition leader and critic of Putin)
9. Михаил Добкин (Ukrainian politician, portrayed as a decaying zombie)

(Numbers are the order in which they appear in the video.)

Aha... sort of the Dr. Laura Schlessinger of Russia, I guess. (Unlike Malysheva, "Dr. Laura" has a background in psychology/counseling, not in medicine. But she's well-known for her social conservatism and for "nagging" people about their moral flaws.)

Also, by the way, here are the lyrics to the music video, along with my attempted English translation in italics (although there were a few words that I probably misunderstood):

1. Человечеки у ларечка
Эх, денек прошел , будет ночка
Ночка темная, глазик выколет
То ли Бог спасет, то ли пистолет

People/folks [are hanging around] by the kiosk
The day has passed, it'll soon be night
The night is dark, it'll gouge out your eye
Either God will save you, or a pistol.


Припев:

Обними меня, обними меня, родная
Видно не видать, видно не видать нам рая
Я пойду ходить, я пойду гулять по краю
Обними меня, просто обними, родная

Hug me, hold me, darling --
It seems we won't see our Heaven.
I'm going for a walk, going to stroll on the edge.
Hug me, just hug me, dear


2. А ларечек тот типа барчика
Слово за слово до базарчика
Из девяточки русский рэпачок
Нужен ножечек, если не качек

And the kiosk is like a bar/pub.
Literally like a rowdy bazaar
[Something about nine Russian rappers??? I didn't understand this line]
You need a knife, if you're not a big tough muscle-man


(Припев)

3. Человечеки у ларечка
Эх, денек прошел, будет ночка
Ночка темная уже столько лет
И никто не знает, когда рассвет

People/folks are at the kiosk
The day has passed, it'll soon be night
The night has been dark for so many years
And no one knows when the dawn will come.

Incidentally, I think that "ларечок" in this context might be loosely Americanized as "7-11" or Kwik-E-Mart" -- since these shops are open all night and often attract drunks who want to buy (or shoplift) beer after the bars have closed.

Might it possibly refer to this? --> Lada Samara - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Because the Russians often refer to that model as "девятка", I thought it could make sense assuming the rapper was sitting inside that kind of "car" =))

Yes.

It’s about some Russian rap songs playing on the car radio, not about actual rappers.
Рэпа́к, рэпачо́к is ‘rap’, not ‘rapper’.

Слово за́ слово is a set phrase that means something like ‘a dialog turning into a fight’.

An example from a dictionary:

Слово за слово — схватились. Он мне два зуба вышиб, а я ему нос набок своротил.
Well, one word led to another, and we came to blows. He knocked two of my teeth out, and I bashed his nose sideways.

Базар is also a criminal-slang word for dialog or chatting.

(sorry for my terrible English…)

No idea. May it's an infant of some of the group members they decided to show that way.

Your English seems flawless to me. (But in this context, instead of "a dialog turning into a fight", I would probably say "a conversation turning into an loud argument".

Викисловарь offers this figurative meaning of "базар":

2. перен. шум, крики, громкая брань

This makes sense to me, because when I was an American child living in Turkey, we would buy most of our bread, cheese, vegetables, and fruits at the Turkish "pazar", which was always a noisy, chaotic place.

(But usually we bought fresh meat, eggs, and milk through the American military commissary, where the hygiene standards were much more strict!)

So, as a very loose "video translation" of this verse:

А ларечек тот типа барчика
Слово за слово до базарчика
Из девяточки русский рэпачок
Нужен ножечек, если не качек

...позвольте меня представить этот ролик, из 1980-го амер. к/ф "Airplane!":



"The mood in the place was downright ugly...
"You wouldn't walk in there unless you knew how to use your fists...
"You could count on a fight breaking out almost every night."

"a fight" is correct. Meaning leading to a "physical outcome" of an argument.

I suspect that is exactly the origin of the word.
Although in criminal slang "базар" means any kind of dialog or monologue. отвечать за базар — Викисловарь

Only to the model VAZ 2109
"девятка" was the most popular car among low level criminals
