Born in Sombor, Serbia and grew up in Beli Manastir in Croatia and Bačka Topola, as a child, she showed a talent for singing. She performed at school performances and social events. At the age of thirteen, she recorded two songs, "Majko" and "Boli svaka tvoja reč", for the production company Mega Sound, whose owner was Mića Nikolić.[1]
She perticiped on Serbian singing competition show Zvezde Granda 2012–13. In 2013, she won fourth place, where she was awarded the song "Još večeras plakaću za tobom". In the same year, she also recorded the duet "Ma pusti ponos" with the winner of the season, Amar Jašarspahić. The following year, she achieved great success with the song "Za nas kasno je", since the song was chosen as one of the biggest hits in Serbia of 2015. In December 2015, she recorded the duet "Šta bi" with MC Stojan and released the music video for it.[2] At the end of May 2016, she released the song "Totalna anestezija", which achieved exceptional success since it reached 50 million views on YouTube. Already on October 25 of the same year, she presented the song "Senke", which was listened to a million times on YouTube in 24 hours, which broke the record on the Serbian music scene.[3]
The first single from her debut studio album Testament was the title track with which Prijović started the promotion of the album, released on June 6, 2017. The song became the most popular on the album, in addition to the singles that Prijović previously recorded and included on the album. The media claim that Prijović with this album is more and more reminiscent of the style of turbo-folk star Ceca.[4] YouTube banned the viewing of the provocative sado-masochistic music video for the song "Separe" by those under the age of 18.[5] Prijović came into the public spotlight when she revealed her relationship with Filip Živojinović, the son of Slobodan Živojinović and the stepson of Lepa Brena. The couple got married on June 21, 2018 in Belgrade. They had a son, Aleksandar, on February 6, 2019. After a short musical break, Prijović came back on the stage with 2 new songs: "Neponovljivo" and "Legitimno". She released her second studio album, Zvuk tišine, in 2022.
