Chalga is a popular music genre in Bulgaria that combines traditional Bulgarian music with pop, folk, and Middle Eastern elements. The genre emerged in the 1990s and quickly gained popularity throughout the country and the Balkans.

Some of the most popular Chalga artists include Azis, Andrea, Preslava, and Galena. Azis, who is openly gay, is known for his flamboyant style and provocative lyrics. Andrea, on the other hand, is known for her powerful vocals and energetic performances. Preslava and Galena are both popular female artists who have won multiple awards for their music.

There are several radio stations in Bulgaria that specialize in playing Chalga music. The most popular ones include Radio Fresh, Radio 1 Chalga Hits, and Radio N-JOY. These stations feature a mix of new and classic Chalga hits, as well as interviews with some of the genre's most popular artists.

Despite its popularity, Chalga music has been criticized by some for promoting negative stereotypes and perpetuating sexism. However, many fans argue that the genre is simply a reflection of modern Bulgarian culture and should be celebrated for its unique sound and style.
