The lyrics of the songs often focus on themes such as love, nature, and historical events.

One of the most popular folk artists in Croatia is Oliver Dragojević, who was known for his unique blend of traditional Croatian music with pop and rock influences. He was also popular in neighboring countries and is considered one of the most successful musicians from the former Yugoslavia.
