İrem Derici, who has not been in contact with Demet Akalın for a long time, and even made a statement lastly saying, 'It doesn't matter whether it happens or not,' has thrown a major shade at Demo's new song 'Don't Forget Me.'
Let's delve into the details together.
From the get-go, the duo, who were not particularly fond of each other, experienced major upheaval during the heated controversy over Hadise.
When Hadise's song 'Zero Tolerance', which she sang for Narin, sparked backlash on social media, Demet Akalın was among those who voiced their disapproval. Responding to Akalın's comment that she felt like 'throwing up', İrem Derici had retorted, 'She should keep quiet instead of throwing up.'
The tension escalated further when Demet Akalın, seemingly referring to İrem Derici, tweeted 'she has no place', which clearly indicated a significant issue between the two.
Later, during a television program, İrem Derici made a comment about Demet Akalın, stating, 'It doesn't matter whether she's there or not.' The pair's exchange of veiled insults and pointed posts continued up until now.
Musician Koray Çağanoğlu created quite a stir when he posted a video comparing the song 'Beni Unutma' by Demet Akalın and Lvbel C5, which quickly garnered millions of listens, to 'Yerinde Dur,' a track Akalın released a few months prior with Sefo, and numerous other songs in the industry that share the same 'riddim'.
The strikingly similar backing tracks of these songs became a hot topic on social media. Adding fuel to the fire, it was noticed that İrem Derici also confirmed this similarity and showed her support for Çağanoğlu's video.
