Life and career

Tilki was born in Konya, on March 28, 2000. Her father is from Konya and her mother is from Of, Trabzon. Tilki's father is a Russian immigrant.[3] She was a semi-finalist on the sixth season of Yetenek Sizsiniz Türkiye (Turkish version of the Got Talent series). She caught public attention because of her Gesi Bağları cover on the show.[4][5][6] She achieved national recognition after the release of her song "Cevapsız Çınlama"[7] along with its music video, which has more than 480 million views on YouTube. It is considered the most viewed Turkish music video on YouTube.[8] The song went up to No. 2 on the Turkey's Trending List.[9] Aleyna Tilki released her first solo single "Sen Olsan Bari" in July 2017 which became number 1 in Turkey's charts.[10] The music video currently has over 390 million views on YouTube.

During the first months of her career, Tilki took stage at alcohol-serving venues which brought criticism from the government due to her being under age.[11] During her concert in Diyarbakır in November 2016, two hand-made sound bombs were exploded in the venue.[12]

Tilki temporarily left Turkey to complete English language training and settled in Los Angeles in November 2017.[13] In 2018, she was among the artists whose names appeared in the albums Yıldız Tilbe'nin Yıldızlı Şarkıları and BombarDuman.[14][15] In November 2019, it was announced that she was in negotiations with Warner Music for producing a new album and four singles. This would make her the first Turkish singer ever to work with this company.[16]
