At a young age, Gleb managed to play for Lokomotiv, CSKA and Dynamo. Until the age of thirteen, his life consisted mainly of daily training and schooling. But in adolescence came the realization that the second Pele it will not work out of him, and the father was not enthusiastic about his son's sporting achievements.
Football has been replaced by music. At the age of 8, Gleb became interested in the work of the German group Rammstein, for which he even enrolled in German language courses. Another teen idol was an American rapper Snoop Dogg.
