He also played in ErdemirSpor Young Football Team for 2 years. After finishing his elementary and secondary school, Boz's mother sent him to music classes and competitions and later encouraged him to study fine arts in high school.[2] After passing an entrance exam in 1995, Boz moved to Istanbul and enrolled in Istanbul Anadolu Fine Arts High School and took courses for four years.[2] At that time, he learned piano and violin.[2] In 1998, he became the winner of the "High School Music and Folk Music Competition", organized by Milliyet newspaper. After taking jazz vocal courses at the Istanbul Bilgi University,[5] he began his studies at ITU Turkish Music State Conservatory.[2] At the same time he began to perform as a backing vocalist for Tarkan.[6]

In 2000, Boz started to make money and pursued his musical career at various music halls as a backing vocalist, and first became a vocalist for Emel Müftüoğlu.[2] He continued his career by vocalizing at the concerts or on studio albums for numerous singers including Burcu Güneş, Demet Sağıroğlu, Hepsi, Hande Yener, Nazan Öncel, Nil Karaibrahimgil, Nilüfer and Tarkan.

2016–present: Kardeşim Benim, Janti and Dönerse Senindir

In January 2016, Kardeşim Benim was released in Turkey's cinemas. It was Boz's second acting experience and he shared the leading role with Burak Özçivit and Aslı Enver.[50] In April 2016, his fourth studio album Janti was released by Doğan Music Company. A song with the same name as the album became the number-one hit in Turkey, while a second song titled "Adını Bilen Yazsın" reached number two on the charts.[51][52] In the following months he played in a movie, titled Dönerse Senindir, alongside İrem Sak and Yasemin Allen. It was released in December 2016.

In 2015, Boz became close to his Kardeşim Benim costar, Aslı Enver, with whom he started a relationship in 2016. The couple broke up in May 2017.[53] After a few months of reconciliation, they eventually ended their relationship in April 2018. In November 2018, they announced their reconciliation after 8 months of separation.[54] However, they broke up again in October 2019.[55]

In January 2017, Boz declared that he would vote "yes" on the Turkish constitutional referendum.[56] Later that year, Boz was among the artists who were featured on Ozan Doğulu's album 130 BPM Forte and performed the song "Hey". A music video for this song was later released in February 2018.[57] In the same year, Boz became the face of Cornetto's 2018 commercials in Turkey, and released the single "Geç Olmadan" in May 2018 as the annual song for the company.[58]

In 2019, Boz starred in the comedy romantic movie Öldür Beni Sevgilim, opposite Seda Bakan. The movie, which was released on 1 March 2019, was not commercially successful, and garnered 9.7 million, becoming the tenth most watched movie of 2019 in Turkey as of June 2019.[59][60] A music video for the main song from the movie's soundtrack was released in February 2019.[61] In July 2019, Boz's sixth single, "Aşk Bu", was released by DMC. The song, which was written by Fikri Karayel and arranged by Ozan Çolakoğlu, was released together with a music video that was recorded in Şile.[62] Mayk Şişman from Milliyet described the single in his review as "one of the most remarkable songs of the year, especially with its post-chorus melody."[63]

On 14 February 2020, Boz's new single "Can Kenarım" was released by DMC. Bilal Sonses wrote the song's lyrics while Mustafa Ceceli served as its arranger. Its music video was directed by Gülşen Aybaba.[64]

Artistry

An instrumentalist who plays piano, violin and ney, Boz is a pop music singer.[65][66] He believes that only singing a song while performing live on stage is not enough and admires the quality that American singer Madonna has shown in her shows and aims to gain the same level of quality in performance as her.[67] His appearance and style in his first songs were compared to that of Tarkan.[68] Boz, who had been a backing vocalist for Tarkan early in his career, expressed his discomfort with the comparisons between Tarkan and himself.[68] He gained prominence with his dance songs in Maximum and Şans, and later included low tempo songs in his third album Aşklarım Büyük Benden.[69] As he desired to have more mature songs in his third album, he made songs that he thought would have more spiritual sense in them.[66] The album received positive reviews from the critics who said that Boz was in a "good orientation" as he was writing his songs with a theme "close to maturity".[70]

Other ventures

Alongside working on his albums and singles, Boz has participated and taken part in various other projects. He has been a judge on reality singing competition O Ses Türkiye for seven seasons.[71] In season one, four contestants from his group entered the final rounds, and Oğuz Berkay Fidan, one of the remaining eight competitors, won the competition with the majority of votes, making Boz the winning judge of the show's first season.[72] Ceren Şehirlioğlu of Hürriyet praised Boz's role as a judge and described him as "very conscientious, compassionate. On the other hand, his high energy brings a lot of attention from time to time. With his occasional high school-like behavior and jokes, he's one of the most friendly persons among the judges."[73] At the end of 2011, to help the victims of Van earthquake, Boz organized a series of pop concerts in Van in December 2011 to raise money.[74] In 2012, he took part in a program organized by Greenpeace for protecting the North Pole, and aided the company by appearing in its advertising film and sang in Turkish.[75] He has also appeared in numerous commercials for various companies. In 2012, he took part in an advertisement, and following the results of a contest held within a group of selected people, he chose the winners to appear alongside him in the music video for "Soyadımsın".[76]
