What happened?
Mosso, after receiving the “Most Powerful Cover Song” award at the PowerTürk Music Awards on June 5, stated that she dedicated her award to the murdered women and said, “I love this award for all those who have been judged, pushed, murdered with everything that being a woman requires, with their clothes and laughter, who have been marginalized in this society for centuries. I take it as a gift to the souls of women. Our voice will never be lowered. No one will silence me, I will continue to speak, produce and sing.”
