My parents are from Türkiye, from the same area as him. It's the music I grew up with. When I was five or six years old, my grandfather always had Neşet Ertaş cassettes and listened to them all day. At that time I was too young to understand the lyrics and meaning well, but I really liked the melodies,” explained Erdinç Eçevit.
