Bio
Rambo Amadeus, born June 14, 1963 in Kotor, is the stage name of the Belgrade-based Montenegrin singer-songwriter Antonije Pušić, one of the most interesting phenomena on music scene(s) of the former Yugoslavia.
His songs combine satirical lyrics on the nature of common people and silliness of local politics. He uses a mixture of musical styles including jazz and Rock, and self-conscious ironic wit. His concerts are never mere repetitions of recorded songs, but a mixture of musical improvisation and humor exploiting all aspects of human nature in a crude manner. Some fans compare his style and career path with those of Frank Zappa or Captain Beefheart.
About
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 unusual proactive political correctness during the turmoil of the 90's has earned him equal respect on all sides of the conflict.
Antonije Pusic (his real name) currently lives in Belgrade, Serbia and his native Montenegro.
