Srbima za sva vremena (Serbian Cyrillic: Србима за сва времена, lit. Forever for the Serbs) is the fifth studio album by Lepi Mića, released by iCD. It is the last of the three war cassettes Lepi would make before the release of the VHS of the same name and the second-to-last patriotic tape he would make over the course of the war.

Background

After the release of Pravoslavci, Lepi Mića wanted to make one more album. For reasons unknown, he did not work with SuperTon and instead recorded the album at Studio Avala Film (at the time CFS "Avala Film") in Belgrade, Serbia. As a result, Duško Lukić, who composed the previous two albums, did not return with Ljubo Kešelj replacing him. Milenko Jakšić would be the only returning member. The album would be published by Bole koncert, located in Podgorica, Montenegro.

Srbima za sva vremena released sometime in 1993 by iCD. The first print of the album contains a typo on A5 where it says "Nevesinje, Tretinje..." instead of "Nevesinje, Trebinje..." and missing lyrics credits, a subsequent rerelease would rectify the issue. It would also get a release with an alternate cover by Bujak Shop for Swiss distribution. On the swiss release, the closing tracks to both sides: "Nevesinje, Trebinje..." and "Pita majka" are prematurely cut off with the J-Card also missing lyrics credits and having the A5 typo.

The tracks, "Živeće Srbija", "Teci Drino, teci", "Ko ne pamti Kosovo", "Ranjenici", "Nevesinje, Trebinje...", "Republika Srpska", and "Dražin barjak" would receive music videos, all produced by S Kanal and included in the VHS. Lepi Mića would appear on TV performing select tracks from the album.

Some time in 2015, the album would be uploaded to the SuperTon official channel in poor quality with a picture of the j-card rather than a scan. While many point out the discrepancy in labels, it is assumed that when iCD went defunct, Cvetin Todorović bought the rights to the Lepi Mića albums. Despite owning the rights, however, the master is likely lost with its updated version on streaming platforms deriving from a high-quality upload of the Swiss release.
