Violeta Miljković (Serbian Cyrillic: Виолета Миљковић; born 18 December 1974), better known as Viki, is a Serbian singer and TV presenter from Niš.[1]

Biography

Born to Svetomir and Zorka Miljković,[2] she grew up in Niš and also spent time in her mother's village Veliki Vrtop.[3] She started to perform with her brother Vladica, an accordionist, at the age of 14.[4] The family set out to establish contacts in the music industry while both children continued with their education. Miljković was educated at the Dr. Vojislav Vuckovic school of music in Niš and the music academy of Pristina.[5] Discovered by songwriter Marina Tucaković, she debuted in 1992 with her first album.[6] Her first three albums were written and produced by Aleksandar Radulović of the Futa Band.[7] They are described as turbo-folk, especially the song 'Coca cola, Marlboro, Suzuki'.[8] She joined Sasa Popovic to release music via the ZaM label and later his Grand Production company.[9]

Her last regular album appeared in 2009,[10] but she has continued to perform since in Serbia and abroad. In 2016, she became a judge and mentor on the television singing competition Zvezde Granda,[11] also produced by Popvic.[12]

Since 2007, Mijlković has been married to musician and accordion player Dragan Tašković, with whom she has a son.[13][14] Her brother left the music industry and owns a casino in southern Serbia.[15][16]
