Playlist - 40 Songs
Never afraid to bare her emotions, Turkish pop singer Göksel has a voice that's angelic and melancholic in equal measure. Her 1997 debut album, Yollar, quickly established her style of smooth pop production glossed over Turkish hand drums, tambourines and electric guitar. Her rise to fame led to stunning solo numbers and fluid collaborations with singers like maNga's Ferman Akgül. While her music is known for dramatic riffs and exotic beat patterns, it's Göksel's iconic voice—with a first-rate trill that covers several octaves—that sets the tone for her emotive songs.
