Life
Zeynep Bastık was born on 8 July 1993 in Çanakkale.[1][2] When she was three years old, her family moved to İzmir and she completed her secondary and high school education there. In 2010, she started professional music with the band "Jackpot" in İzmir, performing mainly cover songs. Until 2012, she performed with this group on stage in different cities, including İzmir, Eskişehir and Bursa. She later joined the Fire of Anatolia as a dancer.[1] Her backing vocals were featured in Murat Dalkılıç's song "Lüzumsuz Savaş", and she worked as Dalkılıç's backing vocalist for three years. With Dalkılıç's help, she released her first single "Fırça" in 2014. She started her solo career shortly afterwards. She became famous after releasing a cover version of Ezhel's song "Felaket".[3] Additionally, she covered a number of other songs, notably by Fikri Karayel, Harun Kolçak and Ümit Sayın, which she shared on her YouTube channel. These covers helped with increasing her fame.[4][5] In June 2019, she released a single with Anıl Piyancı titled "Bırakman Doğru Mu?". She also had minor roles in various TV series such as Adı Mutluluk, Yasak Elma, Sil Baştan and Umuda Kelepçe Vurulmaz.[6] She gained further popularity after her single "Her Yerde Sen" became the theme song for the TV series of the same title "Her Yerde Sen", which aired its first episode on 14 June 2019. The song presents a lively mood, starting with an electric guitar riff that became the motive of the entire song. The song aptly narrates the backdrop of the show - two different people, Demir and Selin, who were forced to live in the same house because of a mishandled sale, the former being the managing director of the firm which the latter works in. An instrumental version of the song was also featured in the show's soundtrack, composed mainly by Zeynep Alasya and Alpay Göltekin.
She became an advertising face for Adidas in 2019 and Elidor in 2020.[7][8]
Music style
Bastık mainly performs acoustic and electronic music. According to Tolga Akyıldız, performing the songs of artists such as Aylin Aslım, İzel, Ferda Anıl Yarkın, Kenan Doğulu, Levent Yüksel, Jabbar, Tarkan, Mustafa Sandal, Şebnem Ferah, Harun Kolçak, Ajda Pekkan, Nilüfer, Kerim Tekin, Şahsenem, Pinhani and Sezen Aksu, and her duets with multiple artists have contributed to her popularity in the digital music market.[9] Bastık was able to come to the fore with these advantages.[10] It has been suggested that Can Ozan, who made his debut in the same time as Bastık, became more popular and known after his duet with her was released.[11]
