The band was formed with five members in Virginia Beach, Virginia. The band consisted of vocalist Shawn O'Brien, lead guitarist Thomas Buser, rhythm guitarist Wes Jenkins, bassist and keyboardist Brandon Lawrance and drummer Johnny Bay.
O'Brien and Buser started the project in 2010. They released a couple of singles online. When O'Brien decided that he was going to become a solo artist, he had set up several different projects across the nation with many different people. But none of those projects had topped Above This. The name comes from the experience that one may face when dealing with rejection, misjudgment, or denial from their friends or family. When O'Brien got kicked out of his first legit band around 2009, he told himself that he wouldn't join another band anytime soon, but after meeting the other members of the band and connecting, they became a band.
Some time later, Jenkins, Lawrance and Bay left the band and Buser took over the role for producing the instrumentals while O'Brien did the vocals. During these years, they released two albums "7L7" in 2010 and "Titanium" in 2013, and two EPs, "Empire" in 2012 and "Hyrax" in 2015.
Eventually Buser also left the project, and O'Brien continued on with the project with different collaborations. The album "Alloquy" was made with Zachary Stitleler in 2015, and the album "Chapter 7" was made with Cameron Ayala and Nicholas Shtyrlov in 2016.
Shtyrlov eventually became a more integral part of the band, now producing all instrumentals for Above This.
O’Brien has built an empire consisting of producers, designers, promoters and engineers that have helped him successfully release several albums since they started. O’Briens ability to recruit talent via social media has allowed the internet band to monetise its music worldwide. Over the years the project has experimented with a variety of sounds including rapping and edm/trap and O’Brien continues to work on future projects amongst different genres.

@dezyreharris2778
I dont know why people say she is ugly and that she can't rap because she is very pretty and can rap
@joeyfvckinsane8457
if she's black maybe ppl wouldn't be hatin her so much. .. ya know
@alisonm1164
+Joey Fvckinsane trust me it's nothing to do with her race. it's because she got progressively worse as the fame got to her head. I listen to SnowDaProduct, And GEazy and they are clearly white and still produce quality
@reneehuizinga9431
+Alison M I actually did witness to a comment war with a black person versus a white person, and the black person did claim Iggy was oppressing "black culture".
@alisonm1164
+Renee Huizinga LMFAO as a black person I could never say she is culture appropriating. She's just a shitty excuse for a rapper in general, making the rest of the great white rappers look like shit. Oh and the fact she called herself a runaway slave master basically secured her a place in the "imma beat yo ass" club, no wonder TI finally got rid of her tacky ways. I wish she would have stuck with her Australian accent and spat truth instead of weak bs like azillion because compared things prior to 2013, her quality has been surpassed by her quantity.
@alisonm1164
shes pretty as fuck but she needs to revert to what brought her here originally
@jorboii
It's been 4 years and this is still, without a doubt, Iggy's best feauture.
@mtcristi03
5 years and still Iggy's best song
@mtcristi03
6 years and one of Iggy's best songs !
@eggy5956
