Nadir Rustamli: participation in the musical project Voice of Azerbaijan
In 2021, he attended the casting of the prestigious music show Voice of Azerbaijan. The producer insisted on Rustamli's participation in the project. The singer decided to take a chance and sent a short video in which he performed an excerpt from the composition.

However, Eldar does not exclude the possibility of recording a joint track.
