His first time performing was with a young Montenegrin group called Vatrena srca, which means "Fiery Hearts." In this group, he played the piano and sang. This experience made him want to become a professional musician.
Starting a Music Career
Sergej began his singing career in 1998. He performed at a well-known festival called Sunčane skale. His song was titled Bila si ruža, which means "You were a rose."
Two years later, in December 2000, he released his first music album. It was called Kristina. This album was a big hit! A company named Goraton bought the rights to the album and sold it across the countries that used to be part of Yugoslavia.

After that, Sergej released his third album, Kad ti zatreba. This album featured 10 new songs. One of the most popular songs from this album was Pogledi u tami, which means "Glances in the dark."
Successful Concert Tours
In 2007, Sergej had a very successful tour across Serbia and Montenegro. All his concerts were completely sold out! In many towns, he had to add extra shows because so many people wanted to see him. This huge success surprised everyone. The song Pogledi u tami was the biggest hit of the tour.
