Milena Jankovic, better known as Mimi Mercedez, is a Serbian rapper and songwriter. She is recognized as one of the first and most prominent Serbian female rap artists. Mercedez debuted in 2011 and has collectively released five studio albums. She previously had stated that her stage name comes from when she was hit by a Mercedes-Benz car as a child, but afterward confessed that it was a joke. Besides Mimi Mercedez, she has assumed several other alter egos throughout her career, including Guda iz Huda, Sestra Drugarica, and Kabasti Koblenc, which she initially incorporated in order to "increase" the presence of women in Serbian hip hop. She has been known for referencing the 1990s in Serbia in her songs. Through the use of metaphors, punch lines, and wordplay, her lyrics often explore sociopolitical themes, such as social stratification and sex positivity.
