Adelina ismajli aka Adelina biography

Real biography: Adelina Ismajli is one of the most popular female Kosovo Albanian pop artists throughout Albania, Kosovo, the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia and in the ethnic Albanian villages in Montenegro, also known as Malësia.

Ismajli is best known for her controversial and politically charged songs and lyrics, including “Uragan Çohen Krenarët,” “Në Kosovë Luhet Kumorë,” and “Skenderbe.” She is also highly recognized as a sex symbol for her outrageous and sexually provocative videos and performances on Albanian local television stations.

Ismajli’s records, including four chart-topping albums (100% Zeshkane, S'jam Sex Bombë, Prej Fillimit, and Mbretëreshë E Robëreshë), have become instant successes and best sellers in Albania, Kosovo, Malësia, and the United States.

In an early 2006 interview, Adelina dismissed claims that Albanian musicians had developed a habit of borrowing tunes from neighbouring Balkan languages, as is often the case across the region. In an outspoken appearance, she gave evidence that in cases where the Albanian melody matched that of the neighbouring version, it had mostly been the Albanian which was found original.

She also has a younger sister, Zanfina, who is a well-known singer.
