Biography edit

In 1998, Pozdnukhov became a member of the Mercury group, which performed gangsta rap. They released several albums and gained some fame in Omsk. It was around this time when he would also begin his own label, Ambush Production, although it would only last until 2010.[4]

At the end of 2012, Pozdunknov starred in a video aimed at drawing attention to discrimination against people with an HIV infection.[5] In 2019, he noted that the operations of the "25/17" group would temporarily suspend,[6] although in 2020 the group reemerged and would continue to release music until the present day. In 2022, they released the album, "Overcome" (Odolyen), featuring a cover of Soviet rock musician Viktor Tsoi's song "April"[rus][7]

In 2003 they celebrated their wedding. On March 15, 2011, a son was born - Yaroslav. On November 6, 2014, Stanislav's daughter was born.[8] Pozdnukhov professes the faith of Protestant Christianity.[2]
