Seyfullah Sağır (born 16 March 1998), better known as Sefo, is a Turkish pop musician and songwriter. He rose to fame in Turkey with his song "Bilmem mi?", which features reggaeton elements.[2]

Life and career

Seyfullah Sağır was born on 16 March 1998 in Samsun.[3][4]

In March 2018, he released his first single "Yalan".[3] In February 2019, and with the success of his second single "Poz" he decided to pursue a professional career in music.[3] On 18 April 2019, he released the single "Up Down", followed by "362" in June 2019.[3] The majority of his songs feature pop elements as well.[3]

On 21 February 2020, he released the song "Başa Sar", featuring Aerro and Yase.[5][6] Other singles include "Ardından", "YOUNGSTAR", "İhtiyacım Yok", "Liman", "Toz Duman", "Bonita (ft. Reynmen)", and "Bilmem mi?", the last of which topped the music charts in Turkey.[4]

In June 2022, he was controversially removed from stage during his concert in Bodrum, Turkey by officials acting on behalf of the district governor’s office. The reason was a Coronavirus pandemic restriction still in place that forbade musical events lasting past 1 AM. However, what outraged Sefo and his fans was that the forceful removal happened at 12:30 AM, for unclear reasons.[7]
