The album's first music video was released for the song "Sen Yoluna... Ben Yoluma...", followed by three other music videos for the songs "Şansın Bol Olsun", "Evlilik Sandalı" and "Küs". The successful promotions together with the release of music videos made Hande Yener's second studio album one of the best-selling works of the year. It received two different awards at the Kral TV Video and Music Awards, organized by Kral TV.[1] After selling 1,000,000 copies, the album received a platinum certification at the MÜ-YAP Music Awards.[2][3] The songs in this album were performed by Yener at numerous award ceremonies, including Kral TV Video and Music Awards, and also on Star TV's program Hande Yener Show, which was presented by Yener herself.[4]
Background and recording
[edit]After the release of her debut studio album, some critics commented that Yener was an artist performing only one type of song. She responded to the criticism by saying: "Time will show them the facts. I will never be an artist with one type of song!". Meanwhile, it was reported that she had started working on her second studio album.[5]
Music videos
[edit]The first music video of the album was made for the dance version of the song "Sen Yoluna... Ben Yoluma..." and released on 17 July 2002. In the video, Yener appeared with a new image and two actors accompanied her.[6] The album's second music video, "Şansın Bol Olsun", was released on 31 October 2002. The video was taken by a crowded team at a bar.[7] Four months after the release of "Şansın Bol Olsun", the third music video, "Evlilik Sandalı", was released on 18 February 2003. A male model appeared alongside Yener in the video, and she went in front of the camera in a wedding dress.[8] Later on 2 June 2003, the album's fourth and last music video, "Küs", was released. The music video was directed by Nihat Odabaşı and recorded at a beach.[9]

Sen Yoluna... Ben Yoluma... received positive reviews from music critics and radiomen. Radio personality Michael Kuyucu gave a positive review for the album and stated: "Hande Yener proved that she is not an artist with only one type of song. [...] Yener, who made an excellent debut in her first solo work and almost became a pop star, has shown the same success in her second solo work."[10]
