Yalchin Rzazadeh (Azerbaijani: Yalçın Rzazadə) is a Soviet period Azerbaijani pop singer of Iranian origin, born in 1946 in Rasht, Iran. He became famous for his clear voice and perfect articulation. From the Soviet period until 1989, he was most famous for his vocals sung in films made in Azerbaijan.

In 1963 he studied acting at the film school in Baku in Azerbaijan. After completing his studies, he went to the Conservatoir where he studied voice. He was invited to work as a soloist for the State Radio and Television. In the early seventies he took part in the master classes at La Scala in Milan to upgrade his vocal skills. The best composers of that time, including Jahangir Jahangirov, Tofig Guliyev, and Emin Sabitoghlu, wrote music especially for him.

He currently lives in Baku, Azerbaijan and teaches vocal classes at the local Conservatoir. He no longer performs.
