Although Koja has been a part of my consciousness seemingly my whole childhood, the first time I remember being fully engrossed in his music was when he appeared with his band Dicsiplina Kicme on TV and did "Novac nece doci." I think Koja burned some dinar bills then, but I couldn't find a video of that. Here is a non-video of a kick-ass live performance:
His latest is a rhyme throwback to that song. Twenty-nine years later, the current lineup of Disciplin A Kitschme releases "Ovisnik o moci."
In my silly translation:
"Novac nece doci" (1985):
My eyes are kaleidoscope
Will I get cash? Nope!
"Ovisnik o moci" (2014):
However if power is your dope
Will you fare well? Nope!
