Баја Мали Книнџа chronology

Stan'te paše i ustaše (Serbian Cyrillic: Стан'те паше и усташе, lit. Stop Pashas and Ustashes) is the second studio album by Serb war singer Baja Mali Knindža, released in mid 1992 by Nina Trejd. It is Baja's first album released by Nina Trejd and the first collaboration with Orkestar Slavka Mitrovića Caleta. Compared to his debut album, Stan'te paše i ustaše's style would be more closer to traditional folk and with a noticeably bigger budget. With the album selling about 300,000 copies, it would be the second best-selling album in Baja's entire career.

Background

Some time after the release of Ne dam Krajine, Baja set out to make another war album. It is speculated that Nina Trejd's owner, Željko Grujić offered a gig due to Baja's past work with Grujić's folk group, Tromeđa and the unmeasured success of Ne dam Krajine. This would become Nina Trejd's very first release in their catalog, uniquely listed as НК-001.

Release

Stan'te paše i ustaše was released sometime in mid 1992 by Nina Trejd and immediately gained traction. It would go on to sell about 300,000 copies in its entire run. The songs featured on this album would be so popular that they became permanent setlist features for future live shows.

In the same year, SRTV Knin produced a music video for Vrati se vojvodo. The video had low budget production as it shows clips of Baja in Kovačić, near Knin at the house of Četnik vojvode, Đujić Momčilo albeit in poor quality.^[1]

The following year, the VHS compilation Najveći hitovi would include music videos for Stan'te paše i ustaše, Kad sam bio mali, Božić je and the aforementioned music video for Vrati se vojvodo.^[2] In 1997, Baja would receive a Platinum record for the album at Nina Trejd's "Hala Borik Banja Luka"^[3] and would perform a live show with an alternate version of "Kad sam bio mali" as the opening act.^[4]

In 2015 Nina Trejd would upload the album on YouTube and digital platforms like iTunes, Amazon Music, and Spotify. This version would include "Ne dam Krajine" from the album of the same name, though the reason for its inclusion is unknown.^[5] In 2020, it would be re-released to digital platforms, this time with "Ne dam Krajine" omitted.
