Selma is the eponymous eighth studio album by Bosnian pop-folk singer Selma Bajrami. It was released 23 July 2014 through Hayat Production in Bosnia and Herzegovina and City Records in Serbia.[1][2][3]

Singles

A 20-second preview of the lead single "James Dean" (named after the American actor) was released on SoundCloud on 30 November 2012,[4] while full song was released on YouTube on 14 December 2012.[5][6] The song was originally titled "Djevojke" ("Girls").

The second single "Nisam ti oprostila" ("I Haven't Forgiven You") and its music video premiered 19 December 2013.[7] Less than two weeks later, Bajrami sang the ballad, "Moje milo" ("My Dear") at a New Year's Eve television special. It served as the album's third single and is about her son, who was 17 months old at the time.

On 4 June 2014, "Tijelo bez duše" ("Body Without a Soul"), the album's upbeat pop fourth single, co-produced by Atelje Trag, had its premiere when the music video was released.[8] The video was filmed in March 2014.[9]
