Ipče Ahmedovski (Macedonian and Serbian Cyrillic: Ипче Ахмедовски; born January 6, 1966 in Lažani, Republic of Macedonia, died June 30, 1994 in Šopići near Lazarevac) also known as Mali Rambo, was a very popular Macedonian folk singer.
A younger brother of the well renowned 1980s folk singer Jašar Ahmedovski, young and talented Ipče was frequently singing in his father's kafana before he eventually moved to Belgrade (Serbia) in order to launch his professional singing career. He recorded his first album Bila si devojčica godina mojih in 1986 with famous composer Rade Vučković and Tomica Miljić orchestra. Later he recorded several albums with another Serbian hit composer Novica Urošević and in the early nineties achieved great fame and popularity in Serbia, especially with younger generations.
Ipče died in a car accident in 1994 on Ibarska magistrala near Šopići, crashing his speeding Mercedes into a truck.
His death sparked great grief in Serbia and a tragic end to one of its greatest vocals in a period when folk music and singers popular in 70s and 80s were quickly losing ground to the emerging turbo folk singers.
