Miladin Šobić (Cyrillic: Миладин Шобић) is a Montenegrin singer and songwriter.

He was an active performer during the late 1970s and early 1980s in SFR Yugoslavia where his prominence had a strictly regional character with his popularity mostly confined to some parts of then Yugoslav republics of Montenegro, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia.

[edit] Biography

He was born in Nikšić (1956.), where he graduated from high school. In high school he first started writing lyrics and composing songs. After high school, he moved to Dubrovnik in order to pursue studies at the College of Tourism.

While a college student, he created his best known songs. In 1975 Šobić released his first song "To sam ja" ("That's me"), which was at that time an unofficial anthem among the college students in Dubrovnik.

A year later at the "Omladina 76" music festival in Subotica he won second place with the song "Daj nam neba". Cooperating with the pianist Gabor Lenđel and studio musicians, Šobić released two albums "Ožiljak" ("The Scar") (Diskoton 1981) and "Umjesto gluposti"("Instead of Stupidity") (Diskoton 1982). He had also recorded a third album called "Barutana Ljubavi" ("Powder-mill of Love"), but after his sister's death he decided to leave music and the album was never released.

After that he returned to living in his home town, Nikšić and never went back to his musical career, in spite of frequent rumours of his comeback.

In 2002, Ibrica Jusić, his friend, announced his comeback. Until today, his new never-before released songs are being discovered, and the unaffirmed rumours about his comeback keep appearing sporadically.

He also made music for theater play "Marko Kraljević Super Star" directed by Slobodan Milatović[1]
