No Sikiriki is Edo Maajka's second album, which sold extremely well. Edo's raps are a lot harder and more thought through than in Slušaj mater.

[edit] The Album

No Sikiriki is not really a life-is-beautiful album. The album name and the song No Sikiriki is about how life is good and that there are no worries and Ruke Gore is a club song, also there is the song Legenda O Elvisu which is about a stupid love triangle and a young black Bosnian as well as Prziiiii which is about a man named Dennis who rose quickly into a singing career and also fell quickly but still kept playing his harmonica on the streets, but the majority of the album is not like the album name No Sikiriki, but instead "I've had it up to my head with the world , but I still could go in the studio and record", Dragi Moj Vlado is a song with seemingly childish beats but is actually about the political situation in Bosnia with a lot of repeating of the word "jebo" (fuck) in the chorus. The song On Je Mlađi is about a Croat boy and Serbian girl who get together to the dissmay of the boys father who is a war veteran and at the end he kills himself, there is also the song Obećana Riječ which is about a Srebrenica war veteran who becomes a hitman after losing everything in the war and kills for money with his beretta, but would never kill a person from Srebrenica for any kind of money. No Sikiriki is a war album, not so much about war but what the war did to Bosnians, parents who hate other nations, professional killers (soldiers) who began a carrier in the front lines, Balkan people scatered all around the world, "rode" (storks) who don't want to bring their young back home where bullets fly. The Album is opened by the recriation Sevdah O Rodama and ends in the song Mater Vam Jebem which is a strong and aggressive song that wants to prove that it is never going to get better for Bosnjaks, Serbs and Croats if they continue the way they started in 1992.
