Bahar Announces New Single "Bam Bam Bam," Out July 16

The 16-year-old singer-songwriter turns fictional romance, emotional obsession and teenage escapism into an addictive new pop release.

Emerging singer-songwriter Bahar will release her new single, "Bam Bam Bam," on July 16, 2026.

Produced with GETH in London, "Bam Bam Bam" is a vibrant pop song about a relationship that feels intense, obsessive and impossible for anyone outside of it to understand. Built around the emotional highs and lows of toxic love, the track captures the rush of being completely consumed by someone, even when that person may only exist in your imagination.

Inspired by Bahar's own experience of turning to books and fictional characters during a period when she felt isolated and excluded at school, the song explores the comfort that imaginary worlds can provide when real life feels lonely.

"I was being bullied and had no real friends at the time, so books became my escape," Bahar explains. "I started thinking about the idea of a fictional boyfriend, someone who wasn't real, but still felt like the only person who truly understood me. 'Bam Bam Bam' grew from that feeling."

Blending emotionally honest songwriting with a playful, memorable pop sound, "Bam Bam Bam" transforms loneliness into a dramatic fictional love story. The relationship at the centre of the song feels like a rollercoaster: exciting, chaotic, addictive and deeply personal.

The release also connects naturally with BookTok culture and with listeners who found comfort in fictional characters before finding people who understood them in real life.

"Bam Bam Bam" follows Bahar's recent singles "Cute," "I Always Knew That No One Would Love Me" and "Freak," continuing her exploration of adolescence, bullying, insecurity, relationships and the experience of feeling different.

At just 16 years old, Bahar is building a growing international audience through emotionally direct songwriting and a strong social media presence. A multi-instrumentalist who plays piano, guitar and violin, she has written hundreds of original songs and works between Türkiye, the United Kingdom and the United States.

"Bam Bam Bam" will be available on all major streaming platforms from July 16, 2026.

Bahar Releases Powerful New Single "Freak"Read

Rising young pop artist Bahar returns with her new single, "Freak," an emotionally charged pop song inspired by a real moment of bullying and isolation at school.

Written from personal experience, "Freak" captures the painful moment of feeling judged, excluded, and misunderstood. The song was born after Bahar overheard classmates speaking about her and calling her a "freak." Hurt by what she heard, she went to the bathroom and cried, then turned that moment into a song.

Rather than presenting sadness as weakness, "Freak" transforms a deeply vulnerable experience into something defiant, honest, and relatable. Through direct storytelling, emotional vocals, and a memorable pop structure, Bahar gives voice to anyone who has ever felt like an outsider.

The single continues Bahar's growing identity as a songwriter who draws from real teenage experiences. Her music explores crushes, insecurity, rejection, relationships, and the complicated emotions of growing up, but always through her own perspective and voice.

"Freak" follows Bahar's previous releases, including her debut single "Cute," a playful Gen-Z pop-rock track about the irrational joy of having a crush, and "I Always Knew That No One Would Love Me," a more vulnerable pop release about insecurity, love, and the fear of being unlovable.

With each release, Bahar continues to shape a distinctive artistic world: emotionally honest, melodic, and rooted in the intensity of teenage life. While "Cute" introduced her lighter pop-rock side and "I Always Knew That No One Would Love Me" revealed a more fragile emotional tone, "Freak" marks one of her most personal statements so far.

At its core, "Freak" is about the moment when someone else's words make you feel small and the decision to turn that pain into something powerful. For Bahar, songwriting becomes a way to process what happened, reclaim the story, and speak to listeners who may have lived through similar experiences.

Still early in her career, Bahar is already building a strong artistic identity through songs that feel personal, immediate, and emotionally direct. Fluent in multiple languages and writing from her own life, she channels the highs and lows of adolescence into modern pop songs filled with sincerity and heart.

With "Freak," Bahar offers a song for anyone who has ever felt different, excluded, or misunderstood and reminds them that being called a freak does not define who they are.
