1. What inspired you to start a career in music?<\/b><\/span><\/p>

Ljubezen do glasbe me spremlja \u017ee od otro\u0161tva. Upam si trditi, da sem bil na ta svet poslan zaradi glasbe, saj je petje in osre\u010devanje ljudi moje poslanstvo na tem planetu. Glasba je bila vedno prisotna v mojem domu, saj sta bila oba moja star\u0161a glasbenika, navdihovali pa so me tudi veliki pevci, ki so s pesmimi izra\u017eali \u010dustva in pripovedovali zgodbe. To me je spodbudilo, da sem za\u010del peti in na\u0161el svoj glas, in dokler bom \u017eiv, bom ustvarjal. \u010ce sem malce sme\u0161en, bi lahko rekel tudi: \u201cPrepevam, torej sem \u201c.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

2. How do you remember your first gigs and the recording of your first album?<\/b><\/span><\/p>

Moji prvi nastopi so bili polni navdu\u0161enja in tudi malce tesnobe. Kot otrok sem pogosto nastopal z o\u010detom in oder je bil na neki na\u010din moj drugi dom. Zelo dobro pa se spominjam topline ob\u010dinstva, ki me je vedno podpiralo, zlasti ko sem bil \u0161e otrok. Snemanje prve plo\u0161\u010de je bilo nepozabno \u2013 po\u010dutil sem se, kot da odpiram novo poglavje v svojem \u017eivljenju. To je bila potrditev mojih sanj. Spominjam se tudi studia Radia Celje z vso snemalno opremo, ki bi ga z otro\u0161kimi o\u010dmi (star sem bil 12 let) opisal kot \u010dudovit otro\u0161ki vrtec.<\/span><\/p>

3. Kaj vam pomeni, da ste pri 15 letih s pesmijo \u201cTrideset let\u201d zmagal na Festivalu Slovenska popevka?<\/b><\/span><\/p>

Zmaga na festivalu je bila zame velika prelomnica. Na podelitvi nagrad so me morali iskati (sedel sem na gugalnici pred Halo Tivoli) in nisem se zavedal, kako velika stvar se mi je pravzaprav zgodila. \u0160e danes se veliko ljudi spominja petnajstletnega fanta in \u0161e vedno z veseljem prepevam pesem. To je bila potrditev moje nadarjenosti in spodbuda, da nadaljujem. Pesem \u201cTrideset let\u201d mi je \u0161e danes blizu, saj mi je odprla \u0161tevilna vrata v svet glasbe.<\/span><\/p>

4. How do you assess the influence of the Roma heritage on your music and the influence of your music on the heritage of the Roma and Slovenia?<\/b><\/span><\/p>

Romska glasba me je vedno posebej privla\u010dila \u2013 njena \u010dustvenost in ritmi\u010dno bogastvo sta me navdihovala. Verjamem, da sem s svojimi interpretacijami pripomogel k temu, da se bogata dedi\u0161\u010dina Romov povezuje s slovensko kulturo in prena\u0161a na nove generacije. Knjiga, ki jo je o meni napisal Matej Kranjec, se prav tako imenuje Ciganska kri in je prav tako ena mojih najljub\u0161ih skladb. Verz te pesmi pove vse: \u201cCiganska kri me vle\u010de naprej, vse moje poti so zapisane v zvezdah. Ciganska kri nemirna brez meja, moja ve\u010dna usoda je tako kruta.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

5. What traditional Roma and Slovenian musical elements have you incorporated into your compositions and how important do you think it is to preserve your heritage?<\/b><\/span><\/p>

In my music, I have often used melodic lines and rhythms that are typical of Roma music and combined them with Slovenian musical traditions. Preserving our heritage is extremely important as it connects us to our roots and gives our music identity.<\/span><\/p>

6. How do you see the role of music in connecting different cultures in Slovenia?<\/b><\/span><\/p>

Music is a universal language that connects people regardless of their roots. In Slovenia, music has played an important role in uniting different cultures and creating a common identity. Music is love, music connects and is often a bridge between different minds. He who sings badly does not think badly, is a beautiful Slovenian proverb.<\/span><\/p>

7. Do you think that minorities and migrants have influenced the shaping of the Slovenian music scene? In what way?<\/b><\/span><\/p>

Of course, the influence of minorities and migrants has enriched the Slovenian music scene with new rhythms, melodies and forms of expression. This diversity enriches us and opens up new horizons in music. Music is intertwined with culture, and every culture has its own peculiarities or its own character, which is reflected and can be heard in the music.<\/span><\/p>

8. Have you ever drawn directly on influences from other cultures in your music or lyrics?<\/b><\/span><\/p>

Yes, several times. I have drawn inspiration from different cultures because I believe that music transcends borders and contains universal messages that we can all identify with. Every artist I have listened to has influenced me in one way or another. We all take in information from our surroundings and feed it back into our environment in some way, either consciously or unconsciously, and that goes for music too.<\/span><\/p>

9. How do you look back on your beginnings today? What has shaped you most as an artist?<\/b><\/span><\/p>

Danes na svoje za\u010detke gledam z velikim ponosom in hvale\u017enostjo. Najbolj so me oblikovale moje izku\u0161nje \u2013 tako uspehi kot izzivi, ki sem jih premagal. Vse to me je okrepilo in utrdilo mojo predanost glasbi. Oblikovali so me tudi \u017eivljenjski dogodki, kot je neposredno sre\u010danje s smrtjo. Po tem dogodku sem napisal pesem \u201cTo je \u017eivljenje\u201d, ki so jo ljudje neverjetno dobro sprejeli. Presene\u010da me, da ob\u010dinstvo na vseh mojih koncertih poje skupaj z mano, \u010deprav gre za razmeroma novo pesem.<\/span><\/p>

10. What do you consider to be the most groundbreaking achievements in your career?<\/b><\/span><\/p>

I would definitely count winning the Slovenian Songwriters' Festival, international performances and collaborations with renowned musicians among the most groundbreaking successes. These moments have always inspired me and given me motivation for new projects. Meeting Paul McCartney is also one of the events that mean a lot to me and I hope that Paul and I will continue to work together musically (preparations are already underway). Apart from that, every album is my baby in a way and I'm proud of it. Each one belongs to a certain creative period and although objectively some are better than others, each one is a reflection of a certain time, a certain emotion and therefore unique.<\/span><\/p>

11. How would you like to be remembered by future generations?<\/b><\/span><\/p>

\u017delim, da se me spominjajo kot nekoga, ki je glasbo \u017eivel s srcem in du\u0161o, kot umetnika, ki je z glasbo povezoval ljudi ter oblikoval njihovo kulturo in srca. Vsaka solza sre\u010de, vsak nasmeh, vsak navdih mladim, vsak hang, ki nekoga dvigne, vse to je moja zapu\u0161\u010dina in moje poslanstvo \u2013 osre\u010devati ljudi in \u0161iriti ljubezen z glasbo. Zato sem \u017eiv in to \u017eelim ohraniti \u0161e dolgo po tem, ko me ne bo ve\u010d.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
