Mehmet Yalçınkaya, a jury member of MasterChef, took the microphone on Kubat’s program and sang the folk songs “Beyaz Giyme” and “Pınar Başı Bulanır.”

Mehmet Yalçınkaya, a jury member of MasterChef Türkiye, this time appeared before the audience not in the kitchen but behind the microphone. The famous chef, who was a guest on Kubat’s YouTube program “Studio14 with Kubat,” sang two folk songs together with the artist.

HE PERFORMED TWO FOLK SONGS WITH KUBAT

In the program prepared with the concept “Two duets, one conversation,” Kubat and Mehmet Yalçınkaya performed the folk songs “Don’t Wear White” and “The Springhead Is Clouded.” While the duet footage was shared on social media, viewers made various comments about the performance.

“LOVE OF FOLK SONGS BEGINS WITH A LULLABY”

In the program, Yalçınkaya also spoke about his connection with music and explained that his love of folk songs dates back to his childhood. The famous chef said, “Most people love folk songs; it is in our genes. The food gene begins with mother’s milk. Music is the same. For someone my age, if you are a child in the village, it begins with your mother’s lullaby. In the minibus we take when going down to the city, a folk song is playing. You and friends like you are among those who make people love folk songs.”
