Early life[edit]
Sinan Sakić was born in Loznica, PR Serbia, FPR Yugoslavia on 13 October 1956.
Sakić was born into a poor family. His mother, Đulka, worked at a factory, and his
father, Rašid, was a member of the military orchestra and later, the Belgrade
Philharmonic Orchestra and Zagreb Philharmonic Orchestra. As a result, Sakić showed
an interest in music from a young age. He was especially fascinated by the piano,
however, his father believed that it would be of no use to him.

Career[edit]
When Sakić was only 13 years old, he was a drummer for a folk band. Later on, he
played with the bassist Bratislav Braca Dinkić. He was a drummer until 1984.
In the late 1970s, by profession, Sakić was a welder; however, he also worked as a
waiter in a kafana. Sakić did not believe in his own singing abilities. If it wasn't for a
customer who offered him 500 Dinars to hear him sing, Sakić would not have pursued a
musical career. The customer was amazed by his voice. From then on, Sakić decided to
perform folk music and to learn popular folk songs. Sakić aimed to learn 5 songs a day.
In his repertoire, he included songs by popular artists such as Toma Zdravković, Šaban
Šaulić and Zdravko Čolić.
Sakić launched his singing career in 1978 with the singles, Sreli Smo Se Mnogo
Kasno and Jedna Tuga Za Dva Druga.
Sakić gained popularity in the 1980s, as a vocalist in the Yugoslavian musical act, Južni
Vetar; alongside Dragana Mirković, Mile Kitić, Šemsa Suljaković and Kemal Malovčić.
[2]
 He was a member from 1982 until 1991. He left due to the hospitalisation of Miodrag
Mile Ilić (Mile Bas), the bassist of Južni Vetar. While Ilić was hospitalised, Sakić
recorded two albums under the production of Zoran Starčević; Ljubila Me Žena
Ta (1992) and Korak Do Sna (1993). Once Ilić had recovered, Sakić rejoined Južni
Vetar and recorded another 7 albums; U Meni Potraži Spas (1994), Ruža i
Trn (1995), Zoko, Moja Zoko (1996), Dodirni Me (1997), Drž' Se Mile Još Si Živ (1998)
and Ne, Ne Daj Da Te Ljubi (2001).
After 17 albums with Miodrag M. Ilić, Perica Zdravković, Sava Bojić and Branislav Vasić,
Sakić once again left Južni Vetar.
Sakić's career began to stagnate in the 2010s due to alcohol problems which caused
his health to deteriorate. [3] In 2014, Sakić performed his signature songs, Lepa Do
Bola and Ej, Od Kad Sam Se Rodio on Zvezde Granda. Due to his increasingly poor
health, his last album, Jedina, was released that same year.

Personal life[edit]
At the age of 18, after serving his mandatory stint in the Yugoslav People's
Army in Pula, SR Croatia, Sakić married his first wife, Velida Milkić. Together, they had
two sons, Rašid and Medo. The former is currently imprisoned on murder charges and
the latter is a singer. Sinan and Velida later divorced. [4] He and his second wife, Sabina
(b. 1959), were married on 29 June 1981. Sabina already had two sons, Ernest and
Elvis, from her previous marriage. Together, they had a daughter, Đulka, and a son,
Alen; a rapper who frequently collaborates with Stefan Đurić Rasta.[5][6][7]
Sakić visited the guru Sathya Sai Baba in India every year from 1996 until Baba's death
in 2011.[8]

Death[edit]
Sakić had been advised to undergo a liver transplant as a lasting solution to his liver
problems. He was placed on a waiting list for the organ. After suffering a heart attack,
his health deteriorated dramatically.
While the organ was being obtained, Sakić left the hospital and decided to stay at home
until the surgery; which was to be conducted in Padua, Italy. He died on 1 June 2018.
[1]
 He was given an Islamic funeral service on 4 June 2018 in Loznica, Serbia.

Early life[edit]
Sinan Sakić was born in Loznica, PR Serbia, FPR Yugoslavia on 13 October 1956.
Sakić was born into a poor family. His mother, Đulka, worked at a factory, and his
father, Rašid, was a member of the military orchestra and later, the Belgrade
Philharmonic Orchestra and Zagreb Philharmonic Orchestra. As a result, Sakić showed
an interest in music from a young age. He was especially fascinated by the piano,
however, his father believed that it would be of no use to him.

Career[edit]
When Sakić was only 13 years old, he was a drummer for a folk band. Later on, he
played with the bassist Bratislav Braca Dinkić. He was a drummer until 1984.
In the late 1970s, by profession, Sakić was a welder; however, he also worked as a
waiter in a kafana. Sakić did not believe in his own singing abilities. If it wasn't for a
customer who offered him 500 Dinars to hear him sing, Sakić would not have pursued a
musical career. The customer was amazed by his voice. From then on, Sakić decided to
perform folk music and to learn popular folk songs. Sakić aimed to learn 5 songs a day.
In his repertoire, he included songs by popular artists such as Toma Zdravković, Šaban
Šaulić and Zdravko Čolić.
Sakić launched his singing career in 1978 with the singles, Sreli Smo Se Mnogo
Kasno and Jedna Tuga Za Dva Druga.
Sakić gained popularity in the 1980s, as a vocalist in the Yugoslavian musical act, Južni
Vetar; alongside Dragana Mirković, Mile Kitić, Šemsa Suljaković and Kemal Malovčić.
[2]
 He was a member from 1982 until 1991. He left due to the hospitalisation of Miodrag
Mile Ilić (Mile Bas), the bassist of Južni Vetar. While Ilić was hospitalised, Sakić
recorded two albums under the production of Zoran Starčević; Ljubila Me Žena
Ta (1992) and Korak Do Sna (1993). Once Ilić had recovered, Sakić rejoined Južni
Vetar and recorded another 7 albums; U Meni Potraži Spas (1994), Ruža i
Trn (1995), Zoko, Moja Zoko (1996), Dodirni Me (1997), Drž' Se Mile Još Si Živ (1998)
and Ne, Ne Daj Da Te Ljubi (2001).
After 17 albums with Miodrag M. Ilić, Perica Zdravković, Sava Bojić and Branislav Vasić,
Sakić once again left Južni Vetar.
Sakić's career began to stagnate in the 2010s due to alcohol problems which caused
his health to deteriorate. [3] In 2014, Sakić performed his signature songs, Lepa Do
Bola and Ej, Od Kad Sam Se Rodio on Zvezde Granda. Due to his increasingly poor
health, his last album, Jedina, was released that same year.

Personal life[edit]
At the age of 18, after serving his mandatory stint in the Yugoslav People's
Army in Pula, SR Croatia, Sakić married his first wife, Velida Milkić. Together, they had
two sons, Rašid and Medo. The former is currently imprisoned on murder charges and
the latter is a singer. Sinan and Velida later divorced. [4] He and his second wife, Sabina
(b. 1959), were married on 29 June 1981. Sabina already had two sons, Ernest and
Elvis, from her previous marriage. Together, they had a daughter, Đulka, and a son,
Alen; a rapper who frequently collaborates with Stefan Đurić Rasta.[5][6][7]
Sakić visited the guru Sathya Sai Baba in India every year from 1996 until Baba's death
in 2011.[8]

Death[edit]
Sakić had been advised to undergo a liver transplant as a lasting solution to his liver
problems. He was placed on a waiting list for the organ. After suffering a heart attack,
his health deteriorated dramatically.
While the organ was being obtained, Sakić left the hospital and decided to stay at home
until the surgery; which was to be conducted in Padua, Italy. He died on 1 June 2018.
[1]
 He was given an Islamic funeral service on 4 June 2018 in Loznica, Serbia.
