At the peak of their popularity in 2011 to 2012, they were the number 1 music channel on YouTube, and sold over a million songs on iTunes. Their songs consisted of comedy rap blended with rock music. The fictional band had four cartoon characters as members: Puff-Puff as the lead vocalist (he was voiced by Johnson), Benatar as the guitarist and co-vocalist (he was voiced by Jesse Cale), Deejay as the turntablist, and Axel as the drummer.

A music video was later uploaded onto YouTube on January 26, 2011. The release of the My Balls music video on YouTube was a success, and as of September 2018, has over 30 million views. They started releasing more songs onto YouTube throughout 2011 to 2012, one of their more popular ones being "Tig Ol' Bitties". Covers and album announcementIn 2012, the YFM YouTube channel started releasing covers of other songs such as Eminem's Love The Way You Lie and Biz Markie's Just A Friend. They then announced that they were working on their debut studio album, set for a winter 2012 release. Dispute with Maker Studios and breakupDuring development for the YFM album, Ray William Johnson was having financial disputes with Maker Studios, the studio funding the album's development.
