About Selma Bajrami

Selma Bajrami (pronounced [sělma bajrǎːmi]; born 4 July 1980) is a Bosnian singer. She began her music career by releasing her debut album Kad suza ne bude... (1998) at the age of 18. To date, Bajrami has released nine studio albums and is regarded as one of the most popular female singers from Bosnia and Herzegovina. Throughout her career, Bajrami’s musical style has evolved significantly. She began with a distinctively Balkan folk-pop sound in the late 1990s, characterized by traditional instruments and emotive vocals. By the early 2000s, she incorporated more pronounced pop-folk elements, blending turbo-folk rhythms with contemporary pop influences, which helped her gain a wider audience across the former Yugoslavia. With the release of Kakvo tijelo Selma ima (2004), she introduced more provocative themes and dance-oriented tracks, solidifying her image as a bold and dynamic performer. The 2007 album Ostrvo tuge marked a shift towards a more polished pop production with traces of rock and balladic expressions, reflecting personal and emotional depth. In later years, especially throughout the 2010s, Bajrami experimented with modern pop, urban sounds, and collaborations with rappers and younger producers, keeping her music relevant to newer generations. Despite stylistic shifts, Bajrami maintained a distinctive vocal delivery marked by a powerful, emotive timbre, which remained her artistic signature across decades.
