Three of Shnur's songs featured on the Everything Is Illuminated soundtrack, including hugely popular Мне бы в небо (Mne bi v nebo, "Up in the Air"). Shnurov also composed music for many other movies, including the Russian cult film Boomer and its sequel.
He has a daughter named Siham Serafina Shnurov, and a son Appolon Shnurov.
Art critic Artyom Rodnaryov thinks that the main audience of Shnurov are clerks who need someone to channel their aggression. Most of the Shnur's songs excessively use obscene words and have a very simple composition, thus fulfilling this function.
In 2016, Shnurov reported the highest income of all singers in Russia ($11 million).
In 2017 got on the cover of the Forbes magazine.
