She started her professional career in the 90s, sharing stage with many famous artists such as Sezen Aksu. Supported by Sezen Aksu, in 1992 she recorded her first album, "Sakin Ol". The album sold over 1 million copies, making it one of the best new coming albums in Turkey. In 1999, Erener recorded "Private Emotion" featuring Ricky Martin, which was included in the Turkey and Middle East releases of the Latin American artist's 1999 album. In 2000, Sertab Erener released the compilation album titled “Sertab” in Europe and the EP “Bu Yaz”.
