Turkish Music

I haven't done any posts about Turkish music for a while, so I thought today I'd do another Turkish themed post. :)

In 2017 I posted a round-up of Turkish and Arabic music on the blog. You can see it here:

And here are a couple more posts:

Atiye- Maazallah

Atiye released this in late 2016. Maazallah translates as God forbid" in English.


You can see an English translation of the lyrics on this site: https://lyricstranslate.com/en/maazallah-god-forbid.html


Also check out Atiye's latest release Radiant Night PowerTürk Akustik) here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4TLxLYR9Zso


Hadise- Sampiyon

Here's a newer song from my favourite Turkish/Turkish Belgian singer Hadise (who I originally discovered through Eurovision almost 10 years ago!). It's from her 7th studio album also called Sampiyon (Champion in English) which was released in June 2017.



Hadise-  Sıfır Tolerans

Sıfır Tolerans (Zero Tolerance) is another song from Sampiyon. The music video which came out in November 2017 caused controversy due to its sexy content, and was banned by several Turkish TV channels! Hadise pointed out that it was a double standard, since nobody seems bothered about men having similar videos.



Cem Belevi- Mışıl Mışı

Finally here's a song by Cem Belevi. The Mışıl Mışı video was uploaded to YouTube in December. I think it's his latest single.



Hope you enjoyed the post! I plan to feature more Turkish music in 2019. :)

25th Anniversary of Mariah Carey's Butterfly Album

My favourite singer Mariah Carey recently released a 25th anniversary edition of her 6th studio album Butterfly. The original album was released on 16th September 1997 and featured songs such as her hit single Honey, The Roof and My All. It was actually the first album I ever bought (on cassette tape, lol) and I still consider it one of my fave MC albums. :) Butterfly was the first album that Mariah had more control over and it is R'n'B, rather than the pop (and later pop/R'n'B) of her previous releases. It also has pop and hip hop influences.  The expanded edition contain 8 extra tracks (the original standard edition has 12)- a duet version of Whenever You Call with Brian McKnight , a new take on The Roof featuring Brandy , live versions of Butterfly and My All, acapella versions of Fourth of July and Outside, an Amorphous Anniversary Club Mix of Butterfly (with DJ Amorphous ) and a remix of Honey (Another Taste of Honey David Morales Mix). I had previously heard the

Debut XG Mini Album

Japanese girl group XG have released their 1st mini album. It's called NEW DNA and was released on 27th September. XG (whose name is short for Xtraordinary Girls) made their debut in March last year and have brought out 7 singles so far- Tippy Toes, MASCARA, LEFT RIGHT/SHOOTING STAR double single), GVRL GANG , TGIF, NEW DANCE and PUPPET SHOW. The first 3 songs (or 4 including the double single) aren't on the mini album. The concept behind NEW DNA is that of being a "new species" free from conventions and limitations .  Although the group is Japanese, their creation was inspired by Korean music and they are based in South Korea. They have released songs in English so far and have been described as a global group and "X-pop". NEW DNA consists of 6 tracks- HESONO, X-GENE, GVRL GANG, TGIF, NEW DANCE and PUPPET SHOW. It is an R'n'B/pop mini album with influences from other genres, such as K-pop, dance and hip hop. My favourite song is PUPPET SHOW. I al
