Keba Reveals 2Soma as Third Guest for Tasmajdan Concert

Dragan Kojic Keba announced on August 6 the name of the third special guest at his Tasmajdan concert. It is rapper 2Soma. Before that announcement, only two names were known, Tanja Savic and Ana Bekuta.

The concert is titled “Sad i ko zna kad” and is scheduled for September 12 at Belgrade’s Tasmajdan stadium. The announcement of the third guest went out the same day on the Instagram profile of the ticket seller, along with a photo of Keba and 2Soma posing together in white.

The two are not meeting for the first time on stage. They have already recorded a song together, “Mega, giga, ultra,” and the audience will hear it performed live at Tasmajdan.

Music is at its best when it brings together people, generations, different musical styles and some new energies. That is exactly why I am especially glad that guests I have recorded a duet with, and with whom I opened a new musical chapter, will be at my Tasmajdan concert

the singer said in the concert announcement. Alongside introducing the guest, he added that something valuable emerges when experience and youth come together.

Why a Rapper at a Folk Concert

The answer lies in the math of the evening itself. Keba is bringing three different audiences onto one stage. Tanja Savic and Ana Bekuta come from his home circle and cover the audience that has followed him for decades. 2Soma brings in younger listeners who know Keba’s hits from the nineties secondhand, through their parents or through social media.

That is also why the name of the third guest was so anticipated. The first two names were expected, while the third is the one that makes news and extends the announcement’s reach beyond the folk audience.

After more than three decades in the business, Keba is not just running through his back catalog at Tasmajdan. The new collaboration gives him a reason to make the program more than a chronological run of old hits.

A Music Video in Bijeljina and the Song “Noc bez tebe”

Before revealing the third name, the singer shot a music video in Bijeljina for his new song “Noc bez tebe.” The song has been announced as an overture to the concert, and its release is expected soon.

The choice of city is not accidental. Keba was born near Loznica, and his home region is about thirty kilometers from Bijeljina. Audiences on both sides of the Drina have claimed him as their own for years, which made shooting the video in Bijeljina a concert announcement to that audience as well.

I invite all my friends, fans and dear people from Bijeljina to come to Tasmajdan on September 12. It will be an evening full of emotion, song and good company. I am waiting for you so we can make a spectacle together

Keba said from Bijeljina, during the filming of the video.

What Comes Before Tasmajdan

Before the main date, the singer has a performance in Niska Banja. That concert is also part of the same announcement, since the summer wraps up with Tasmajdan.

The order of announcements so far looks like this:

• Tanja Savic, the first guest name announced
• Ana Bekuta, the second name on the list
• 2Soma, the third guest and partner on the joint song
• September 12, the date of the Tasmajdan concert

Keba has previously announced that he will reveal other big names as well, so the guest list is probably not closed yet. If that pattern continues, at least one more announcement should follow before September, and it will determine just how generationally mixed the final lineup actually turns out to be.

What is already known is that the Tasmajdan audience will hear at least one song they have not heard live before. The duet with 2Soma will be performed for the first time, and “Noc bez tebe” is expected to reach listeners before September 12.
