He released an album in 2012, titled Ne plaši se ogledala, under City Records. Only significant stand out from it was the track "Kaligula", which was given way to him by Jelena Karleuša.

Legal issues

According to Macedonian portal Netpress, Jovanovski was fined with €15,000 for smuggling designer clothes through Skopje Airport in March 2018.
On July 17 2019, Bojan Jovanovski was arrested by the warrant from the prosecution for organized crime under suspicion of racketeering. This event occurred following the release of a video and an audio recording from an unnamed source by the Italian magazine La Verita, which shows Jovanovski getting paid €1,500,000 by Macedonian businessman Jordan Kamchev, who was accused of organised crime, so that Jovanovski influences the prosecutor Katica Janeva, with whom he has close ties to, to judge in the favor of Kamchev. Jovanovski also mentioned that he had contacted the Prime Minister of North Macedonia, Zoran Zaev, about the case. Zaev firmly denied these speculations branding them as ungrounded and reminded that he was the one who reported the case against Kamchev. In June 2020, Jovanovski was sentenced to nine years of incarceration for illegal influence and money laundering.
