Born into a musical family, her father, choirmaster Konstantin Poplavsky, together with Gennady Tsitovich created Belarusian State Folk Choir.

In 1986, Poplavskaya and Tikhanovich were forced to part ways with the Verasy ensemble, and in 1987 they got into the just-organized State Orchestra of Belarus under the direction of Mikhail Finberg.

[6] Commenting on the situation, the Poplavskaya's daughter, the singer Anastasia Tihanovich, revealed the intention of Khanok to receive for the right to perform his songs in the future $25,000 and the impossibility of paying them due to the large expenses for the treatment of her father, Alexander Tikhanovich.

[7] Khanok also stated that he intends to sue Poplavskaya “in connection with the protection of honor, dignity and business reputation",[8] noting that not a single Belarusian newspaper, which wrote about the funeral of Tikhanovich, mentioned its authorship “Robin”.

[10] On 5 July 2017, Khanok changed his decision and again shared with journalists the intention to protect his “honor, dignity and business reputation” in court, despite the fact that the ban was not violated.
