And again a resounding success: music lovers bought 2 million cassettes and 600 thousand discs. The following year, Mustafa Sandal delighted fans by presenting his second album, which he called "Gölgede Aynı" (Same as Shadow). In 1995 he became the arranger of the album "Adam" of the singer Sibel Alash, having written all the songs for him. Sandal did not stop there: the next year he concentrated his efforts on arranging songs and set up his own recording studio at home. During the year, the singer gave 140 concerts in major cities of Turkey and 30 in European cities, becoming a record holder among fellow countrymen. He has an army of fans and fan clubs around the world.ģ months after the start of his musical biography, Mustafa Sandal went on a tour of the country. Sandal was recognized and accepted as an independent performer.

In the first months, 1.5 million cassettes and 200 thousand discs were sold, which was a record for the year. It came out in 1994 under the name "Suc Bende" ("My Wine"). In the early 1990s, Mustafa Sandal “matured” to enter the stage as a performer and recorded his debut album. Soon Sandal became one of the most sought-after authors, whose songs were included in the repertoire of pop stars. His compositions were popular with listeners, reached the top of the charts and became hits. Mustafa Sandal made his first steps in music, collaborating as a songwriter with famous Turkish performers. Well, the singing Sandal turned out to be in the middle: the argument spurred him to go on stage and take his niche in the pop show business. Today he is a well-known performer in Turkey. Hakan Peker won and was the first to achieve popularity in his homeland. Young people argued who would be the first to reach the top of the musical Olympus. Who knows how Mustafa Sandal's career would have developed if not for the dispute with friends Hakan Peker and Serdar Ortach. The young poet and composer did not dare to perform with author's compositions. Mustafa wrote music and songs for Turkish performers. He could no longer resist his childhood dream and plunged into the world of music, linking his biography with art forever. After completing his studies, he returned home to Istanbul. After graduating from a boarding school in Geneva, he entered the American, and then the British lyceums, where he received the basics of economic education. Mustafa Sandal did not dare to contradict the adults. The boy's parents considered their son's hobby as frivolous and temporary: he was seen as a respectable businessman or reputable banker. But Mustafa did not show interest in vocals in those years. The instrumental accompaniment, especially the guitar one, aroused the greatest interest in him. Mustafa perked up at the first sounds of songs and tried to repeat the rhythm of the drummers with improvised means. His parents discovered the boy's penchant for music in early childhood. Having once heard this suggestion from reporters, the singer regarded it as a joke. Allegedly, the actor in his youth left Mustafa's mother when she was already pregnant with her son. Later, when Sandal had already become a famous artist, he was credited with a relationship with the Turkish comedian Kemal Sunal. The singer was born in January 1970 in the old Istanbul district of Besiktas, which once served as the administrative center for the last Ottoman sultans.
