Rambo Amadeus
Rambo Amadeus is one of the most prominent cult figures on the ex-Yugoslav music scene.
Rambo Amadeus is one of the most prominent cult figures on the ex-Yugoslav music scene. Real musical maverick, he manages to stay clear from usual "radio friendly" music, often using it for parody. Self proclaimed World Mega Emperor (Svjetski Mega Car) is famous for his wacky jazz-funk, twisted lyrics and unpredictable live acts packed with brutal satire sometimes bordering on stand-up commedy.
His unusually proactive political correctness during the turmoil of the 90's has earned him equal respect on all sides of the conflict.
Rambo Amadeus is attributed for coining the word "Turbo Folk" to denote another musical phenomenon in the same region, ultra tasteless, aggressive and massively popular modern Serbian folk music. The word has caught on and is now widely used. Antonije Pušić (his real name) currently lives in Belgrade, Serbia and his native Montenegro.
