Vladimir "Vlado" Georgiev ( Serbian Cyrillic: Владо Георгиев, pronounced [ʋlǎːdo ɡeorɡǐjeʋ]; born 6 June 1976) is a Serbian singer-songwriter and producer, one of the prominent musicians in the Balkans.
Georgiev served as a judge on television series Prvi glas Srbije in 2011 and 2012, and Tvoje lice zvuči poznato in 2016.
Georgiev was born in Dubrovnik to Dragoljub, [1] (a Bulgarian from Dimitrovgrad, Serbia) and Borka [1] (a Serb from Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina. [2]) He has an older brother, Saša. [1]
Shortly after his birth, his family moved to Herceg Novi in Montenegro, where he was raised and lived until age 16, [2] after which he and his brother moved to Belgrade. [1] One of his hobbies is riding motorcycles. He has traveled around Europe on his Harley-Davidson. [1]
Georgiev has recorded three studio albums to date: Navika (Habit) in 2001, Žena bez imena (Woman without a name) in 2003, and Daljina (Distance) in 2013. In 2005, he released a hit single, " Nisam ljubomoran" ("I'm not jealous"). After a two-year break he released a single, "Do svitanja" ("Till Dawn"), along with a ballad, "Ti i ja" ("You and I"). In 2009, he released two singles, Hej ti (Hey You), which became a huge success, along with a ballad, "Bez tebe" ("Without You").[ citation needed]
He played accordion, then he started playing piano, synthesizers and other keyboards. He started writing songs for himself and for the other popular stars in ex-Yugoslavia. He was also a producer for the Montenegrin hip hop band Monteniggers, and is still a friend with their only living member, Niggor. Georgiev and Niggor recorded the song "Tropski bar" together. He has his own record label, Barba Music and VG-Art studio production company, Studio Barba, in Belgrade.
Georgiev has also expressed his views on some political issues. He previously supported the liberal Movement of Free Citizens organisation. [3] He stated his support for several conspiracy theories such as QAnon, [4] [5] and promoted misinformation regarding COVID-19 vaccines and the pandemic. [6] [7] In January 2022, he compared the Australian government to Nazi Germany. [8] [9] He has voiced his opposition to NATO. [10] [11] [12]
