Ben Bazen (I Sometimes...) is the debut studio album by Turkish singer Simge. It was released on 1 June 2018 by Doğan Music Company. After her oriental single "Miş Miş" (2015) topped the music charts in Turkey, Simge continued her career with low-paced songs such as "Yankı" (2016) and started to give hints about the musical style of her first album. During the preparation process of the album, which lasted for four years, she worked with a number of artists, including Ozan Bayraşa, Alper Narman, Ersay Üner, Onurr and Sezen Aksu. Considered a dance-pop album as a whole, Ben Bazen also contains elements of deep house, R&B, rock, trap and türkü. The lyrics are centered around a woman who tries to tell the story of her love and in some songs she does not give up, while in others she tries to escape from the crisis in her life. Music critics praised the album's musical diversity and pointed out that it had emerged as a result of a successful team work. Photographs of the album were taken by Nihat Odabaşı, and the photograph used on the cover shows Simge holding a guitar with one hand and a microphone with the other. Five songs from the album were turned into music videos. Months before releasing the album, the song "Üzülmedin mi?" was released as a promotional single in November 2017, and its music video was recorded in Nişantaşı, Şişli. It was centered around a story about unfaithfulness. On its first week of release, the song ranked as number-one on Türkçe Top 20.

The song rose to number-three on Türkçe Top 20. The next music...
