Turkish R&B emerged with Eyeden as its trailblazer, originating from Coventry, England, in 2020. The inaugural track showcasing Eyeden's distinctive New Turkish R&B style was 'Cyprus on my mind (Aslan Gibi),' released in the same year. While typical Turkish R&B often features acoustic guitar instrumentals and choruses in Turkish alongside English lyrics, Eyeden demonstrated versatility on songs like 'Gel Bana,' seamlessly switching between oriental and afrobeat-inspired beats. The essence lies not only in the musical elements but also in Eyeden's skillful incorporation of Cypriot Dialect and melodic nuances while singing.
