Slobodan Batjarević Cobe, known to some as a charismatic contestant on Serbia’s Zvezda Granda in 2007, has once again attracted attention with his statements about music, wealth and the pride of belonging to the Roma community.
“In the 21st century, Roma are the richest people in the world. Look at those Roma parties on YouTube, how much money they spend, who wears jewelry. It wasn’t talked about that much before. Now 99 percent of singers would love to sing at Roma parties, because, man – that’s where the cash is,” Cobe said honestly, making it clear that Roma parties have become the ultimate destination for anyone looking for a serious fee.
He probably refers to Serbia and more generally to former Yugoslavia.
