Ankaralı Turgut

Ankaralı Turgut is one of the oldest and once the most popular singer from the "Ankaralı"(the one comes from Ankara) school of Turkish ethnic music.^[1]^[2] He started his career in early 90's and he was morally questionized by many. His rivals are Ankaralı Namık and Hasan Yılmaz and his fellow friend is Ankaralı Yasemin, who is a similar female singer. He is a famous performer of electronic "Ankara music" style.

He only can make the songs named "novelty" by the Eastern music researchers. By the impact of popular music culture on Turkey, most regional singers of Ankara (capital city of Turkey) turned their way to novelty-kind-of-music which considers only sexuality and black humour on daily life. This was a result of that entertainment market in Ankara explored the power of "sexuality in music" that sells well.
