By his own account, seeing the 1985 spot for "Electric Avenue" by Eddy Grant was a revelation that would point his whole life and career towards reggae.
At the age of 15, he was invited by Jovan Matić to play guitar in his reggae act Del Arno Band.
Coyote himself worked outside Serbia on Dark Ages, another Soulfly record, where he plays the song "Innerspirit" as guest.
At the same time he worked with top Serbian hip hop producer Wikluh Sky and French MC King Kyll, making one album under the name Shappa.
Coyote also appeared as a session musician and as a guest playing the trombone, guitars or singing for many Belgrade and ex-YU bands, such as Riblja Čorba, Discord, Skarps, Irie FM, Dub Rebellion, Who See, Kanda, Kodža i Nebojša, Darkwood Dub, Block Out, E-Play, Raspect, etc.
