didn't let fame get to him. After each tour he returned home to Bihać where he'd run his bar, fish, and play table tennis. In 1989, Islamović left the Bijelo Dugme tour without notifying anybody from the band. He returned home in order to cure a kidney problem he developed on the road, forcing the cancellation of the rest of the tour. Although it seemed like a minor postponement at the time, it actually turned out to be the end of Bijelo Dugme. Soon the war started and the band went into a 15-year hiatus. In total, Islamović recorded two studio albums with the group, Pljuni i zapjevaj moja Jugoslavijo in 1986 and Ćiribiribela in 1988 and one live album called Mramor, kamen i željezo in 1987. Joining Bijelo Dugme, Islamović instantly became one of the most famous and recognizable musicians in Yugoslavia and in the whole region. Post-Dugme After getting back to good health, Islamović initially used this time off to record a 1989 solo album Haj, nek se čuje, čuje, haj, nek se zna. Except for the title song, the record received a lukewarm public response and was soon forgotten. When the Bosnian War started, he fled Bihać for Zagreb and recorded three albums there with mediocre results before returning to Bihać with the end of the war. Islamović then took part in a duet with popular turbofolk singer Indira Radić on her album Pocrnela burma in 2002. The song they recorded together, "Lopov", went on to become a huge commercial hit. He would later do two more duets with her: "Imali smo, nismo znali" for her 2007 album Lepo se provedi and "Ljubav stara" for her 2011 album Istok, sever, jug i zapad. In between his work with Radić, in 2005, Islamović took part in three large farewell concerts with Bijelo Dugme in Sarajevo, Zagreb and Belgrade. It was the band's first live appearance since 1989. He also played rhythm guitar and sang in the band "4 Asa" with Vlado Kalember, Slavko Pintarić "Pišta", Rajko Dujmić, and Jurica Pađen. Islamović released the song "Mrtvo hladno" in February 2005 and the full album of the same name was released in April 2005 with a Canadian band called "Srčani Udar" (English translation: "Heart Attack"). The album featured 11 songs and a DVD bonus with two music videos and a 30-minute documentary "in the making". In October 2006, Islamović joined
