The result adds another milestone to Manifest’s growing international campaign. Released on October 9, “Tralala” is the six-member group’s first English-language single, and it made an immediate impact on Spotify. The song debuted at No. 46 on the Daily Global chart with approximately 1.917 million streams, becoming the first track by a Turkish female group to enter Spotify’s Global Top 50. It later peaked at No. 40.
That achievement marks a significant step for a group that has primarily built its audience in Türkiye. Previously, “Hileli,” their collaboration with Turkish pop icon Ajda Pekkan, peaked at No. 155 on Spotify’s Daily Global chart, while “Toz Pembe” reached No. 177.
“Tralala” pairs rhythmic pop production with traditional Turkish influences, balancing an international sound with references to the group’s cultural identity. Its playful lyrics center on attraction, confidence and the excitement of a night out, while the phrase “Look like an angel, God bless, Mashallah” adds a distinctive touch to its flirtatious approach.
The accompanying music video, directed by Yeeiid, was filmed in London’s East End and incorporates Turkish coffee, nazar charms and other cultural references.
Slayyyter’s “I Think He’s Got a Girl” earned a strong second-place finish with 29% of the vote. Released on October 9, the guitar-tinged pop song explores the realization of a partner’s infidelity and offers a more vulnerable counterpoint to her higher-energy material. It serves as the third single from her forthcoming album wor$t man in america, scheduled for December 4.
