Redžo Mulić (Albanian: Rexho Mulliqi, Serbo-Croatian: Redžo Mulić/Реџо Мулић; 18 March 1923 – 10 February 1982) was a Yugoslavian composer from Montenegro and husband of singer Nexhmije Pagarusha. He was born in Gusinje, Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes (now Montenegro) into an ethnic Albanian family, and attended an Islamic seminary in Skopje (now North Macedonia) until 1941. He then moved to Pristina (in Kosovo) for the next three years and enrolled in the Belgrade Musical School in 1946, but he was unable to finish his studies as he was soon arrested and convicted for political reasons. In 1953, he was released from prison and returned to Kosovo; he worked as a music teacher in Prizren, and later as a producer for Radio Pristina.
