Sandra Prodanović (Serbian Cyrillic: Сандра Продановић; born 1 April 1988), better known as Sandra Afrika (Serbian Cyrillic: Сандра Африка), is a Serbian pop-folk singer. Born in Belgrade, she initially performed as a backup dancer to singer Mile Kitić, before pursuing a music career with the song "Afrika" (2007), from which she also got her stage name.[1] In 2011, she released her self-titled debut CD through DM SAT, featuring previously released songs.[1] Afrika gained more significant popularity following the release of "Neko će mi noćas" (2012).[1]

Over the years she has had several collaborations with Romanian recording artist Costi Ioniţă, including "Devojka tvog druga" (2013) and "Bye Bye" (2014).

Personal[edit]

During mid 2000s, Prodanović started dating the nightclub owner Aleksandar "Mikiša" Moskovljević, having met him while performing as a backup dancer at his Oziris discotheque in Šabac as part of Mile Kitić's stage act. Soon upon commencing the relationship with 31-year-old Moskovljević, 17-year-old Prodanović moved out of her mother's home to join Moskovljević in his hometown Šabac where the couple began living together. Simultaneously, Moskovljević took the reins of Prodanović's performing career, initiating and overseeing her transition from dancing to singing while in the process becoming her business manager.[2] Once Prodanović's singing career began taking off, the couple began investing in real estate in Serbia.[3][4]

The couple broke up in 2017 after a decade together though they reportedly kept their business relationship with Moskovljević continuing as Prodanović's manager.[5]

According to media reports, Prodanović began an off again-on again relationship with footballer Vladimir Volkov in 2017.[6][7]
