After getting discovered by the song-writing duo Marina Tucaković and Aleksandar Radulović, she released her debut album, Loša sreća (Bad Luck, 1992), under Diskos.[2] However, it was only the following year that Viki saw significant commercial success with her second release and breakout hit "Nikom nije lepše nego nama" (No One Has It Better Than Us). Her music career peaked in the early 2000s with albums Mariš li (Do You Care, 2003) and Mahi, mahi (2005), released through Grand Production. In 2006, Viki held her first solo concert in Belgrade's Sava Centar.[1]
