Plejboj (Serbian Cyrillic: Плејбој; transliteration for Playboy) is a Serbian rock band from Belgrade.

The band was formed in 1992 by former Euforija and Presing members, bassist Roman Goršek, guitarist Igor Petrović and drummer Miladin Radivojević. They were soon joined by saxophonist Dušan Petrović, a former Duh Nibor and Deca Loših Muzičara member. Together they had their first public appearance at the Brzi Bendovi Srbije festival held at the Dom Omladine in Belgrade, where, performing with kitschy clothes, attractive musical style, wigs and on-stage dancers, the band had easily drawn the attention of the public to themselves.

The following year, the band performed as a part of the Trinidad Trip band in the play Trinidad (Trinidad) which was directed in the BITEF theater by Milutin Petrović. The song "Ja hoću mambo" ("I Want Mambo"), performed with Branka Katić, Slobodan Ninković and Branko Vidaković on vocals, soon became a nationwide hit. The band also wrote music for a part of the Beogradske priče (Belgrade Stories) play.

The debut album, Sviraj dečko (Play, Boy), released by B92 and DE Production in 1994, the band recorded featuring guest appearances by Veljko Nikolić "Papa Nik", piano on the track "Sve ili ništa" ("All or Nothing") and vibraphone on "Carstvo čula" ("Empire of Sensations"), Marko Milivojević, percussion on the tracks "Grizi metak" ("Bite the Bullet"), "Bela koka" ("White Coca") and "Carstvo čula" ("Empire of Sensations"), and Vlada Lešić, congas on "Plejboj" and percussion on "Carstvo čula". The tracks "Koliko" ("How Much"), "Grizi metak" and "Skidam se" ("I am Stripping") were distinguished as the most prominent. "Sve ili ništa" was also included on the various artists compilation Radio Utopia (B92: 1989-1994) released by B92 during the same year.
