He started his professional songwriting activities in 1997 in the Radio and Television Organization. His first songs were composed by Fouad Hejazi and Shadmehr Aghili and sung by Khashayar Etemadi. Including the song "From Persia to the Caspian Sea" composed by Shadmehr Aghili and sung by Khashayar Etemadi.[6]

For several years, Yadollahi was the director of an association called the Song House. The Song House was established in 2001 with the collaboration of songwriters such as Abbas Sajjadi, Saeed Amir Aslani, Babak Sahraei, Yaghma Golroei, Afshin Siahpoosh, Niloufar Laripour, Mohammad Reza Habibi and Afshin Yadollahi. These sessions were devoted to songwriting, song critique, and workshop sessions. The meetings of the Song House were then transferred to the Cultural Center of Law and then to the Cultural Center of Shafaq and the Cultural Center of Arasbaran.
Over the years, the songs of the founders of the Song House gradually separated from it for various reasons, and Afshin Yadollahi was the only surviving member of the founding board of the association, who continued to run the Song House after this incident. The meetings of the Song House at the Shafaq Cultural Center were among the least effective executive meetings. The location of the Song House has changed over time.
