When the breakup of Yugoslavia started, Baja's songs turned patriotic. He managed to gather just enough money to record his own first album, but somehow lost it all on the way to the studio. Now in debt and in search of a record label to take him, he eventually found [[Jugodisk]] after being rejected by [[PGP RTS]]. Finally published in early 1992, "[[Ne dam Krajine]]" would become a huge hit that catapulted Baja to fame.

His second album, "[[Stan'te paše i Ustaše]]", released by [[Nina Trejd]] in mid-1992, featured the songs "Božić je", "Morem plovi jedna mala barka" or "Pevaj Srbijo", which would turn into his most popular and most recognizable songs.

Despite this success, Baja had a strained relationship with the media.
