Do you miss the Akcent era? This song was released in 2009 & was everywhere in Albania.

Romanian music peaked around 2010 and unfortunately is going downhill since around 2016-2018, nowadays is just manele, trap and ultra-comercial pop.
I hope that in the near future we will see a new and better age in the romanian music industry.
Critical-Positive858@reddit
manele also hasn't been good since then..

Exactly, I do not like them, but i do agree 15 years ago they were much better

She is an enigma
Substratas@reddit (OP)

My friend in Uni was so obsessed with this when it came out she hooked me on it, even went as far to hunt down that pink jacket 😂
Substratas@reddit (OP)
Ok but fr, who is sheeee??? I wanna stan her too 😭
OkoMushrooom@reddit
I thought she was popular enough for a short while back in the day to be remembered wthhh 😂 Era Istrefi

Hejhoppgummisnopp@reddit
Everyone knows her, substratas must be an alien to not know this song lol
Mustafa312@reddit
How are you Albanian and not know who Era Estrefi is? She sang in the World Cup 2018 song but she’s mostly known for Bon Bon.
Double-Aide-6711@reddit
It’s really crazy, lol
Substratas@reddit (OP)
I didn’t watch BBF growing up. I was more into MTV.
ThickCaterpillar9867@reddit
Era Istrefi ne bbf??ti me habit naiher mu me kto ca thu
Substratas@reddit (OP)
Sorry, it was just a wrong assumption. She looks stunning.
Mustafa312@reddit
What’s BBF? Is it a music channel similar to MTV?
I don’t think you had to have watched either of them to know her and her sister. Nora Estrefi sings mostly in Albanian while her sister Era Estrefi sings mixed Albanian/English songs. They’re pretty well known by Albanians.
Substratas@reddit (OP)
Ofc I know Nora!
Ujemegaz@reddit
Bon Bons
Substratas@reddit (OP)

Not akcent but in the same vein and era. Pop dance music peakes in that period imo

Remember driving back to Kosovo as a kid with the family with all these Romanian 00’s songs playing
Awkward-Noise1964@reddit
I still listen to these once in a while to get a dose of nostalgia. Great stuff.
timisorean_02@reddit
I was on a beach in Ksamil a few years ago and 85% of their playlist consisted in romanian songs from the late 2000's/
Substratas@reddit (OP)
No way, they still do play that music??
Well, I don’t blame ’em, it’s iconic! 🔥
Critical-Positive858@reddit
make romanian euro house great again 😔❤️❤️
Iapetus404@reddit
All beach bars and clubs play this song at summer in Greece before 10-15 years ago.

neckke@reddit

Not because I liked them, but the current era is dominated by stupid music and manele which is in a worse category of it’s own.
DogBrilliant8100@reddit
Absolute peak era 🙌🏻
Comrade_sensai_09@reddit
This song brings back good memories… pure nostalgia, smh.
Podolski7777@reddit
Absolutely

I find Albanian language very unique, it is like Italian with persian phonation, you extend some of the vowels in a nasal tune like, shqiptaoar and it adds a softness to the language.
