Although her original last name was Savgı, she chooses to go by the scene alias Mori, which means girl in various ethnic Balkan Turkic languages, and which was a name she was called by many of her friends as a young girl. She composed her first song when she was a teenager. Her first album "Hayvanlar" was released on 10 July 2008 by Irmak Plak. She is a graduate of the Department of Graphic Design at Bilkent University; her work is released by Tumblr.
Yasemin Mori features most of these works at her concerts, but she does not intend to release a new album, as she stated on MTV Turkey's talk show BeniMTV broadcasted at October 2009.
Mori received mainstream attention with her first video "Aslında Bir Konu Var" posted from her MySpace account on May 2008. It was featured after the launch of MySpace's Turkish version.
Her second video, "Mutsuz Punk," was released on Yasemin Mori's multiple social network accounts on 27 August 2009.
