Career
Elite began her music career in September 2020 under the mononym Electra, when she released her debut single "Lepa sam" (
I'm Pretty), a collaboration with Serbian singer-songwriter
Angellina, written by
Marko Kon and
Ognjen Amidžić. Elite and Angellina got in touch via their joint photographer Đorđe Bukvić and Angellina, who intended to release the song by herself, liked Elite's story and decided to collaborate with her.
Elite's "electro deep" vocals, how she dubbed them, were heavily edited due to the depth of her voice.
The single was well received by other Serbian singers, such as
Dara Bubamara, Ceca and Ana Nikolić.
By the end of September, she promoted the single by performing during Angellina's set at the Belgrade Music Week.
In October 2020, Elite was featured on the cover of Serbian LGBT magazine Optimist. In an interview for the magazine, she spoke about her desire to use her popularity as a platform to help Transgender in Serbia.
