Career
Career
In 2008, when Republika Srpska was looking for entries for a new regional anthem, Isović and Bosnian national anthem composer Dušan Šestić submitted an entry, "Мајко земљо" ("Mother Earth") as a contender, though ultimately it was not chosen. In the late 2000s, Šestić and Isović also wrote a set of lyrics for the wordless Bosnian national anthem, although they were not adopted.
