Early life and career

Of Bosniak origin, Mekić's career began when he was a teenager and his talent was soon discovered. His first song "Se Seknuvam" became very popular in the Republic of Macedonia. After successfully producing several singles, he took a break from producing his own music so he could begin writing lyrics for other artists that were popular in the Republic of Macedonia. He returned to music-making in 2007 with the song "Neka Te Zaboravi", of the studio album, Opasno.

After performing the song "Armija" at Skopje Fest 2008, Elvir, along with his best friend and fellow musician, Jovan Jovanov, organised a concert to be held in Skopje. Only one concert was planned for the 10 April 2008, but due to high ticket sales, a subsequent concert was scheduled for the following evening. In late 2008, Mekić collaborated with Serbian singer and former Đogani member, Slađa Delibašić. The pair released a Bosnian/Serbian single titled "5 Minuta". He wrote the lyrics for the Macedonian entry to the 2009 Eurovision Contest.[1]

In 2010, he sang "Što je od Boga dobro je" with Bosnian singer Selma Bajrami on her album Selma 2010.

gollark: Assuming moderators can `/cf` other people's stuff, maybe Hydro was just happily going about banning me from his stuff (not requiring moderator powers), but accidentally stood in urn street and did that.
gollark: The coincidence of timing is possibly odd, given that I don't think I recently annoyed crazed too.
gollark: Anyway, since crazed appears to have *not* banned me from his other claims, perhaps hydro accidentally used magic mod powers to ban me from urn street or something.
gollark: Thanks to PotatOS Auto-Update, PotatOS users should receive the updated node.lua within about five minutes.
gollark: Okay, I don't think it's temperatures.
