Who See?, also known as Who See Klapa, is a Montenegrin hip-hop duo from the Bay of Kotor. Its members are Dedduh (Dejan Dedović), from Kotor, and Noyz (Mario Đorđević), from Herceg Novi. The group was created in early 2000s, recording their first demo track titled "Dim po dim" ("Puff after puff"). Noyz and Dedduh had guest appearances on Serbian hip-hop compilation "Ulice vol.1", and Sve same barabe, an album by 43Zla. In 2007, the group released their debut album, Sviranje kupcu. Among the guests on the album there are Bad Copy, Škabo from Beogradski Sindikat, Hornsman Coyote from Eyesburn and Rhino, a producer and MC from Podgorica. He authored some of the beats on the album, and was the executive producer on all the tracks.
Who See were also featured guests in the hip-hop track titled "Pozovite neke drolje" ("Invite some sluts") with rappers Ajs Nigrutin and Prti Bee Gee. They have also performed as the opening act at the last Bad Copy concert in Belgrade, in July 2008. They are also the founding members of a bigger hip hop group, called Bokeška Brigada (Boka Brigade), in collaboration with Worzo (MC, beatboxer), Labia (MC) and Šejn (MC).
Performance at Refresh Festival 2008
Who See? had the honor to perform as the opening act of Kotor's 2008 Refresh Festival's hip-hop category on opening day, 7 August. They opened at the hip-hop stage at the Maximus discothèque, their appearance scheduled for 00:00 (Midnight) local time. Their performance proved that it is not instant success that they have attained even outside of Montenegro's border. Their performance also successfully paved for their colleague, Serbian rapper Marčelo's, performance, which was due an hour after Who See?'s performance.[1]
Solo works
In their free time, Dedduh and Noyz have worked on their own solo works. Dedduh recorded a single called "Kakav ćemo refren?" ("What kind of chorus [do we want]?), featuring Serbian rapper Ajs Nigrutin. Meanwhile, Noyz recorded "Niđe hedova masnija", featuring Ajs Nigrutin and Timbe.
Eurovision Song Contest 2013
After winning MTV Adria award for Best regional Act RTCG announced in December 2012 that Who See would represent Montenegro in the Eurovision Song Contest 2013 held in Malmö.[2] Their entry was the song "Igranka" with additional vocals by singer Nina Žižić. The song was performed as part of the first semi-final heat on Tuesday 14 May 2013 and failed to advance to the finals.[3]
