Sultana

Born and raised in Turkey where she is the leading hiphop artist, Sultana brings a new flavor and dimension to music by lacing hiphop beats with ethnic influences and a hypnotizing sound.

Sometimes humorous, sometimes political, passionate and sensitive, Sultana holds her mirror to social issues, women's issues and her life as a young artist living both in Turkey and the US. Musical influences vary from old and new school hiphop to a wide variety of both Eastern and Western music. Her debut album Cerkez Kizi, was released in June 2000 by Doublemoon Records, and Sultana became an overnight success when her video clip for "Kusu Kalkmaz" was censored because of its controversial content. Ever since, she continues to gain popularity throughout Europe.

Review of Sultana	5	It's great to hear what people all over the world do with rap and trip hop. It goes to show how we are all one spirit with amazingly different different voices! If you like the middle eastern sound Sultana will let you hear how rap-hop is done from turkey! You wouldn't want to miss german rap and really not miss french rap- especially not miss jap rap- no collection would be complete without sultana! I almost for got molotov- mexican rap!
Review of Sultana	5	The Turkish Hip Hop was awesome!
