Dalibor Andonov (Serbian Cyrillic:Далибор Андонов,pronounced[dǎliboːrandǒnov]; 8 March 1973 – 9 September 2019), known professionally asGru,[needs Serbian IPA] was a Serbian musician, DJ, rapper and actor.[1] His songBiću tu from the 1996 albumGru 2, gained him popularity in Eastern Europe, as well as the 2010 releaseI dalje me žele alongside Serbian rapperAjs Nigrutin.[2][3] His albumGru 2 is the most commercially successful album in Serbia, selling four million copies, and reachingcertified gold status in Serbia.[4] Other than his immense popularity in the Balkans, he is well known in other countries of Eastern and Northern Europe.[5] He has been dubbedThe Serbian Rap Machine.[6]
A native ofDimitrovgrad, Andonov started his career inBelgrade, with his earliest demos in 1994, but rose to prominence with his music work in early 1996. Marking the first wave ofSerbian hip hop with his debut albumDa li imaš pravo?, Andonov produced five albums as a solo artist, out of which four reached gold and platinum status in Serbia.[7][6] The albums included critically and commercially acclaimed songs that topped theBalkan charts, includingSrce,Biću tu,Kad se popnem na binu,Kiša, andDa li imaš pravo?, winning him three Serbian Oscars of Popularity, anIndexi Award and aWorld Music Award.[7] The songs were noted as traditional hip-hop compositions with elements offunk andsoul. SinceBeograd in 2003, Andonov has stepped down from making albums and has been producing singles.[8] His more recent work incorporates radio friendly melodies, which embarked commercial success, includingI dalje me žele,Plan B,Kilo koke andBiću tu (20 godina kasnije), winning an Index Award, an Oscar of Popularity and an MTV Platinum Award.[9][10]
Andonov also had done work for television and film, including appearances inOperacija trijumf,Veliki Brat VIP All Stars andTvoje lice zvuči poznato.[11] He made his film debut in 1997 as Vanja inLand of Truth, Love & Freedom, and actively composed films, includingUndisputed II: Last Man Standing andDorćol-Manhattan. He died on 9 September 2019, following a kite-surfing accident.[12]
Andonov attendedtrade school inPančevo. During his education, he avidly played football and basketball.[1] In 1988, his cousin living inSweden gave him aStraight Outta Compton album by N.W.A., which he cites as his most important possession from his earlier years.[13] After high school, he went to study business, but never finished due to his love of music. After, he had moved toBelgrade, where he began to produce music and MC. Soon he became skilled at DJing, beginning to MC in the early nineties. His DJing style resembled the one of Nigerian-Swedish recording artistDr. Alban, which he idolised at the time.[1] Andonov chose the stage nameGru, from the music term which senses propulsive rhythmic feel or dynamics,groove.[1]
Andonov began his career in 1990 as a founding member in the Yugoslav recording actProject 6, which disbanded in 1993. His first demo recording as a vocal soloist was produced in 1994, although his first public releases date back to 1995, with the albumDa li imaš pravo? (Do You Have The Right?) which marked the beginning of the first wave ofSerbian hip hop. His debut album was recorded atStudio Jugodisk andStudio Avalon from 24 October until 10 December 1994, although it was released a year after. In the first recording he collaborated with Enco, who was featured only in that recording, more specifically in the sequenceŽivot je lep (Life is beautiful).
Andonov published the albumGru 2 in October 1996, and it gained him notoriety in theBalkan countries, becoming the most commercially successful album in Serbia to date, selling 4 million copies, which holds the record as the best-selling album in Balkan history.[4] The songs in the album included emotional ballads (Dosta mi je svega/Poludecu) and gangster anthems (Srce).[6]Gru 2 contains the most songs done as alliances with other Serbian musicians of all his albums. These includeLeto (Summer), with Leontina Vukomanović and U-Stuff,Srce (Heart) with Leontina Vukomanović and Nenad Jovanović,Dosta mi je svega/Poludecu (I'm Done With Everything/I'm Going Crazy) with Srđan Babović and Dejan Ivanković,Čovek je čoveku vuk (A Man is a Man's Wolf) with CYA and ILaLa,Petak (Friday) with Bojan Todorov and Coca, andBiću tu withNiggor of theMonteniggers. All songs featured lyrics and music arranged by Andonov, with guitar playing done by Voja Aralica, and co-writing done by Dejan Ivanković Betoven, who was a guest vocalist onDosta mi je svega/Poludecu. The album was produced by producer Srđan Babović, on behalf of the labelKomuna.Gru 2 was recorded atStudio Puž.
The trackBiću tu (I'll Be There) from the album, became his signature song, and became an evergreen Serbian rap song,[1] incorporating elements ofsoul andfunk, into hip-hop and rap. A song heavily hinted by prostitution,Biću tu was accompanied by a music video that was controversial due to provocative content.[14] The song was also credited by Dragan Brajović Braja to have found the balance between commercialisation and underground.[15] The Gru 2 album earned him two Serbian Oscars of Popularity, one for the album itself, and one for the single.[16] The songSrce won Andonov aWorld Music Award in 1997 in category of Best Hip-hop Singles.[7]
In 1999, he helped produce the Full Moon andMonteniggers singleJa se vraćam u svoj hram which his chorus melody is the foundation for the songSamo sex Srbina spasava. He won the Serbian Oscar of Popularity for Best Concert, premiering the albumVetrenjače (Windmills).[16]Windmills also gained the honorific title ascertified gold in Serbia, claimed in 2000.[17][18] Songs from the album merged hip hop withswing, which was another autochthon creation in Serbian music done by Gru. He toured Eastern Europe in 1999.
In 2000,Metropolis Records published a rendition of his debut albumDa li imaš pravo 5 years after the original issue, on CD.[19] The rendition included various guests, including Serbian music producerMarko Kon, hip-hop group CYA, rapper Đorđe Radivojević Ramirez (ex Sunshine), Bojan Todorov and Vladimir Ilić. He also had his film debut inLand of Truth, Love & Freedom as Petar Peca, and composed the soundtrack forDorcol-Manhattan.

In 2002, he released the albumIzmeđu redova (Between the Lines), on which he had worked on for 7 years with the labelCity Records, since 1995 until 2002. The song MF "Gru – Ko Je Gru?"

Later, he helped produce the song "Bistra voda" forMirjana Kostić and performed shows alongside her.[29][30]
In 2010, Andonov alongside Serbian rapperAjs Nigrutin releasedI dalje me žele (They Still Want Me) as a hip hop duet. The rap song had similar motives asBiću tu. The song achieved numerous accolades, including "The Number One Best Rap Song of 2010" byKurir[31] and the "Number One Best Hip-Hop Songs of the Last Decade" byBlic.[32] It also spawned numerous covers of varyingYour Face Sounds Familiar adaptations.[33] He voiced Minion in the Serbian dub ofMegamind, alongsideDragan Mićanović, who dubbed Megamind, and appeared in two episodes ofUlica lipa, as the fictionalLeskovac native Branislav Savić.[34][35]

The song itself featured production from his own studio, but also the Serbian record label IDJ videos, which lasted for 6 years. Gru published the variation on 22 August 2015. Unlike the original which incorporated elements ofold-school funk, the 2015 release blended the worlds ofhip-hop andturbo-folk and pop music in order to appeal to modern listeners.[52] The music video, produced by IDJ Videos, had featured guest stars similar to the ones in the 1996 video of Andonov's Biću tu, such as the Cindy models[5] andNiggor ofThe Monteniggers.Kilo koke (Kilogram of Chicken) was another single by Gru released a year later, 2016, which featured rapper Vojke Djans.Kilo koke, due to its repetitive lyrics and overused beat didn't amass success as much as the rendition of his most popular song, but it was still an acclaimed club song which received radio play.[52] Celebrating the new hits, Andonov toured Eastern Europe, and later performed inSweden, sponsored byAbsolut Vodka.[41] In May 2016, he performedPiù Bella Cosa asEros Ramazzotti for the final episode ofthe third season of Tvoje lice zvuči poznato.[53]

The performance was also reprised in the final, when Marjana Bombaz and Xum Allushi performedI dalje me žele as Nigrutin and Gru to close the show. In September 2017, Andonov did a concert forGrey Goose Vodka in River Club Belgrade, attended by over 20,000 people.[55] In November 2017, Andonov released a medley single, which incorporatedBiću tu,I dalje me žele,Srce,Putnik,Kiša,Ozbiljna veza,Čovek je čoveku vuk,Pravo u raj,Skit,Dugme po dugme andDoktore in that order.

Though he did not shine in the area of vocal style,[62] being abaritone, he excelled in the field of musicianship,[18][63] either as a music producer and as a multi-instrumentalist, and in the art ofrapping. Andonov was largely a self-taught musician, who learned basic chord progressions by ear. He was taught bass guitar by Bulgarian musician Gril Zrbnikovski, during his late teenage years.[18]
As a music producer, Andonov was known for merging many genres into rap and hip-hop.[18] The most popular example is arguablyBiću tu (1996), which combinedfunk withhip-hop,[64] but also instances withMF Gru – Ko Je Gru? (2002), which is mixed witheurodance,[65]Komercijala (2003) andKiša (2004), where rap meets pop,[19] and the new singles, after his hiatus includeDugme po dugme (2014), which combinestrap music,[66]Biću tu (20 godina kasnije) (2015), which includes structures of Serbianturbo-folk.[67] The most common music fusion by Andonov, which is his autochthon creation in Serbian rap music, is the merging of rap and funk. This can be attributed to most of his songs, most notablyBiću tu,I dalje me žele,Kad se popnem na binu,Putnik andOzbiljna veza.[63] The Ultimate Collection from 2009 included elements ofRhythm and blues, andSwing music.
Andonov's musical abilities included playing drums, guitar, bass guitar, and keyboards.[68]

Andonov has cited as his main influencesN.W.A,Marvin Gaye,Michael Jackson,Tupac Shakur,Eminem,Dave Gahan ofDepeche Mode andMaurice White ofEarth Wind and Fire for musicianship,[69] but has also cited his colleagues to be an inspiration, such asMarchelo,Sky Wikluh,Ajs Nigrutin,Juice andŠkabo.[70] His DJ influences includeDr. Alban,David Guetta,Carl Cox andRay Slijngaard of2 Unlimited.

Other artists includingAna Nikolić,Coolio,Rambo Amadeus[78] andAlmir Hasanbegović ofDubioza Kolektiv[79][80][81][82][83] have often cited Gru as an influence.[84] Arguably, Andonov is the most successful rapper in Eastern Europe.[85][86][87] His popularity isn't limited to the Balkan countries and Eastern Europe, as he frequently tours in Asia, Northern Africa and inthe United States, selling out shows at major venues includingTroubadour in the United States,The Opera House in Canada,Space Sharm in Egypt,AgeHa in Japan, and various other locations.[5][88][85] His rapping skills proclaimed him the honorific title ofthe Serbian Rap Machine.[6] Theatre and music critic Milivoj Jukić called Gru "a legendary musician of the nineties".[89] Viktor Savić dubbed Gru "a legend of Belgrade and a moral foundation that future generations can look up to."[90][91]
Based on Andonov's career, the 2015 documentaryStani na put was made. The film's central plot is Balkan hip-hop. It was directed byMarchelo, and filmed inBelgrade,Sarajevo andZagreb, featuring eminent rappers from the region, includingEdo Maajka,Sky Wikluh, Timbe,Ajs Nigrutin,Juice and various others.[85][86][87]
Andonov has defined his interests and hobbies in various interviews, for Serbian news companies, which include Blic and Kurir. According to his interviews, he was an avidsnowboarder andBasketball player, and enjoyed living spontaneously.[17] He owned properties in his native Serbia, and thePhilippines.[92][93]

On September 9, 2019, Gru waskitesurfing inZemun next to the "Nautic Club Zemun" when a gust of wind lifted him out of the water and slammed him back multiple times. It is assumed that the kite's handle hit him in the head, after which he lost consciousness and dropped into the water; the ambulance came quickly, but they could only declare him dead at around 3:20 pm.[12]
Numerous prominent artists, includingRadovan Vujović,Sergej Trifunović,Frenkie, Sky Wikluh,Nikola Rokvić andNered expressed sorrow over Andonov's death.[97][98][99] His funeral was held on 12 September inOrlovača.[100]
