Shaforostov showcased an early interest in music through his YouTube channel "above92" which contains vocal and guitar cover videos of songs dating back to as far as 2008. He furthered the momentum of his YouTube popularity through the formation of Make Me Famous. After Make Me Famous broke up, he founded Down & Dirty but left the group shortly after, later joining British metalcore band Asking Alexandria, which he left on 21 October 2016 because of conflict going on in his home country the Ukraine. Denis has stated that it is a "legit war zone". Stoff posted on Twitter on September 27, 2017 “New album and new band... so worth every minute of the work and da wait we've already invested in this.
