BIO
“
I am prone to daydreaming and escaping reality.
My interest in creating videos started out of the need to change
What I see, hear and experience

"Each of my videos offers a unique world and an escape from reality for three-four minutes."
"With my videos, I penetrate different worlds through the topics I cover. They are often, in a way, conversations with myself, so in that sense, each is a bit autobiographical."
Ljubba was awarded "Music video of the Year" by public votes on the Music Awards Ceremony two years in a row. In 2018 for "Limunada" by Emina Jahovic and Milica Todorovic, and 2019 for "Dodji Mami" by Natasa Bekvalac.
In an interview for Nova S in November 2020, he was asked to describe his work. Ljubba stated: "I am prone to daydreaming and escaping reality. My interest in creating videos started with the wish to change what I see, hear and experience. In addition, I'm a big fan of film and music. Videos are halfway there. Fairytale and dreamy or dark, realism or surrealism, what I work on must be stylized and controlled. It's a cult of personality we're dealing with." He described his work as "escapism" and concluded the interview with, "Music videos are the most suitable terrain for visual expression and creating a world for yourself, so it is a pity not to use this magic."
