“Meydana Gel” (‘Come to the Square’) is the first single from Meral Polat’s album MEYDAN. It’s a call to unite, celebrate, and raise our voices together. Blending Anatolian rock with Afrobeat, blues, and swing, the track is both raw and vibrant. Polat’s voice powerfully invites listeners to the mythical meydan, setting the tone for her bold and captivating new sound.
