Background

After Zbogom oružje Baja went to Lazarević Production, who at the time was just starting to release their own original works, rather than solely redistribute albums in Europe. Like Zbogom oružje, Meri would be credited on the release as the photo selector using an original photoshoot rather than picking out from pre-existing ones. Unlike Zbogom oružje however, Baja would not reuse the "Mali Baja" moniker and from this release forward, would never use it again, with its only other appearance being in Plači voljena zemljo.

With the collaboration with brothers Nenad and Novica Nikolić, the album's music would sound more updated than the previous two albums. While Baja's style would evolve continuously in future works, this specific direction would not be done again. Like Baja, this is the only release in their discography under Lazarević Produktion with a majority of the remainder of their work being published under ZaM.

While most content is original, "Bez zavičaja" is cover of the Nervozni Poštar song "Bez zavičaja sreće nema" from 1988[1], albeit with minor changes to fit the album's style.

The album's double fold has a dedication to Baja's daughter Smiljani, who was born a year prior to the release of the album.[2] It would be the only album released with a dedication in this manner, with Za kim zvona zvone and Gluvi barut allocating them to the moral support section.

Release

Ne dirajte njega was released on cassette and CD format in 1997, by Lazarević Produktion and Estrada shop. This would be the last release from Estrada shop and the only album released by Lazarević Produktion. Despite being the only release by Lazarević Produktion, Baja would work with artists within the company until 1999 where he would migrate to Renome.

The songs "Bez zavičaja" and "Magija" would become setlist staples and "Bez zavičaja" would receive a music video.[3]
