In 1988, he co-founded and became the artistic director of the cabaret theater "Ne Zhurys!" which combined original songs with sharp political satire. As a translator, Morozov is best known for his Ukrainian translations of J.K.

Throughout his career, he has performed in numerous countries, including Australia, the United Kingdom, Argentina, Afghanistan, Belgium, Brazil, India, Canada, Laos, Latvia, Lithuania, Macedonia, Germany, Paraguay, Poland, Russia, and the United States. His musical discography includes nearly 20 albums, and his translation work encompasses over 20 books for both adults and children.

He continues to perform as a solo artist and with ensembles like "Chervonyi Kut" and "Batyr-Band Halychyna." His deep knowledge of Lviv's culture and pre-war urban folklore is evident in his work, including the album of batyar songs "Tilku vi Lvovi" released in 2002.
