Music career

Starting from her debut album, Tishma has introduced a number of new music genres to Bangladesh, such as R&B, ballads, and funk[13]

Tishma has been influential to Bangla music trends. Tishma's contributions to music, choreography, music videos, and fashion have inspired other Bangladeshi pop singers.[1][6][14][15] Tishma is the youngest artist in Bangla music to have released thirteen solo albums.[8][16]
