Life and career

Şahin, whose family is originally from Divriği, had a great interest in music since her childhood and took singing lessons from Timur Selçuk at the Contemporary Music Center while she was studying at Beşiktaş Atatürk Anatolian High School. After graduating from Boğaziçi University with a degree in sociology in 2012, she worked with Baba Zula as a vocalist until 2017. Shortly before she quit working with Baba Zula, she started a project called Melikşah ve Saz Arkadaşları, and gave concerts with an arabesque-themed repertoire at the Kanto tavern in Beyoğlu for a while.
In 2017, she voiced three songs for the soundtrack of Tony Gatlif's movie Djam and gave a concert at the Cannes Film Festival in the same year before the world premiere of the movie.
In 2017, she started her solo career with the singles "Bi' fırlatsam" and "Deli Kan". Her first solo album, Merhem, was released in February 2021. The album's first song, "Uykumun Boynunu Bükme", was released as a promotional single in January 2021.
