Famous singer Burcu Güneş made harsh criticisms of the music industry through her posts on social media.

One of the powerful voices of Turkish pop music, Burcu Güneş, expressed in her striking statement on her Instagram account that she has not been able to perform concerts on major stages, especially at the Harbiye Open-Air Theater, for the last 10 years.
The artist stated, "If necessary, I wanted to hold a concert even if I had to pay the price myself, but I also want to learn why I couldn't. I researched a lot, but couldn't find anything. To the days we find..." highlighting the uncertainty in the industry.
"SERIOUS AMOUNTS ARE PAID TO UNQUALIFIED PEOPLE"
In her second post, Burcu Güneş used strong expressions about the money circulating on digital platforms and the "influencer economy": Serious amounts are paid to unrecognized, unqualified people to promote my song on platforms like TikTok. Other platforms are also involved in different activities. I have never been involved, and I do not want to be.
The artist emphasized that the value of labor in the music industry has diminished, continuing with the following words, "I stand against this wrong system that tries to take much more from the earnings of hardworking people without any effort, including us in this system. I am doing my best to avoid being part of these strange and nonsensical activities."
Burcu Güneş concluded her post with the note "For your information," criticizing both the commercial order in the music industry and the injustice that stands out on social media.
