Premčević was born in the village of Ljupšte in the Poreče region, at the time part of the Ottoman Empire (now R. Macedonia). He joined the Serbian Chetnik Organization and organized the first Serbian "četa" (band) in Poreče in March 1904, which he then submitted to the command of "vojvoda" (duke) Micko Krstić. Premčević was the assistant of Micko Krstić, and after Micko was returned by the Serbian Committee to Serbia, Premčević became "vojvoda" of a band in charge of pursuing the Albanian kachaks. He was an active guerilla fighter until 1908, when the Young Turk Revolution saw all rebels putting down their weapons. He participated in the Battle of Kumanovo in the detachment of "vojvoda" Vojin Popović-Vuk. He died in 1937.
