The late 1990s in Turkey were marked by intense sociopolitical tension regarding identity and freedom of expression. Kaya, a Turkish-Kurdish singer, often found himself at the center of this controversy. Ahmet Kaya

Recorded at his own GAK studio, the album was a high point of his career just months before the infamous 1999 televised awards ceremony where his wish to sing in Kurdish led to his persecution and eventual self-exile to France. Giderim

Much of the album’s emotional weight comes from the poetry of Yusuf Hayaloğlu and Orhan Kotan, set to Kaya’s compositions.
