Selim II (Ottoman Turkish: سليم ثانى Selīm-i sānī, Turkish:II.Selim; 28 May 1524 – 12 December/15 December 1574), also known as "Selim the Sot (Mest)" in west and as "Sarı Selim" (Selim the Blond) in east, was the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire from 1566 until his death in 1574. He was a son of Suleiman the Magnificent and Haseki Hürrem Sultan.
Biography
He was born in Constantinople a son of Suleiman the Magnificent and his legal Ruthenian wife, Hürrem Sultan. She later became the first Haseki Sultan and was a prominent figure during the era known as the Sultanate of Women.
In 1545, at Konya, he married Nurbanu Sultan whose background is disputed. It is said that she was originally named Cecelia Venier Baffo, or Rachel, (or Kale Katenou). She was the mother of Murad III. She later became the first Valide Sultan who acted as co-regent with the sultan in the Sultanate of Women.
After gaining the throne after palace intrigue and fraternal dispute, he succeeded as Sultan on 7 September 1566, According to one source Selim II became the first Sultan devoid of active military interest and willing to abandon power to his ministers, provided he was left free to pursue his orgies and debauches. His Grand Vizier, Mehmed Sokollu, from what is now Bosnia and Herzegovina, controlled much of state affairs, and two years after Selim's accession succeeded in concluding at Constantinople an honourable treaty (17 February 1568) with the Habsburg Holy Roman Emperor, Maximilian II, whereby the Emperor agreed to pay an annual "present" of 30,000 ducats and essentially granted the Ottomans authority in Moldavia and Walachia.

by Hey Hey My My
Solo Amame
by: AventuraMi amor yo ya no aguanto esta guerra
Con tu padre que me ha vuelto un infeliz
Me acusa de maleante, yo no he dicho que
Soy perfecto pero de algo ahí que vivir
Yo sé que la forma en que gano dinero
No es legal, no me importa, te quiero
Yo solo vivo para ti
Papa no te va escuchar
Dice que vas a fracasar, ah
Mejor que piense en lo que yo siento por ti
Te amo pero por favor
No ponga en riesgo nuestro amor, oh
Entiende niña, hay compromisos que cumplir
Mi amor no te imaginas como yo me estoy
Sufriendo cuando me hablan mal de ti
La gente es así
Si no son los vecinos es mi padre con consejos
No podemos seguir así
Sé que no es fácil dejar lo que haces
Haz un intento antes que fracases
Yo también vivo para ti
De que te quejas corazón
Si lo que quieras te lo doy, oh
Los lujos a mi no me importan, solo tu
Entonces solo ámame
Yo sé cuidarme, créeme, eh
Si caes preso hoy mismo, olvídate de mi
Mi amor entiende bien, mi padre cuidara de mi
No quiere que me pase nada
Entiendo que el te quiere, pero mas te quiero yo
Y yo no pierdo esta batalla
Mi amor, te digo, deja lo que haces
Haz un intento antes que fracases
Repito solo vivo para ti
No es fácil dejarlo todo así
Y no veo como te afecta a ti
Me afecta mucho por que te amo corazón
Quisiera complacerte amor
Pero el dinero es mi adicción, oh
Entonce elige, es el dinero o mi amor
This song is dedicated to all the hustlers
You know sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do to earn your living
I hear you, boys, I understand
