Ozan Ata Canani - Alle Menschen Dieser Erde

OZAN ATA CANANI: "Warte mein Land, warte"

The guest worker's son Ozan Ata Canani was the first migrant to sing in German. Now finally an album is coming out with songs by the singer / songwriter that are much more than historical documents.
He still says "guest workers". Because that was his father, who believed in returning home until his death. And that was Ata Canani himself when he came to Germany at the age of twelve. An "ozan" is a poet, the word almost an honorary title in Turkey. The fact that Ata Canani now calls himself Ozan is also self-empowerment, because the 57-year-old is not a celebrity in his country of birth or in Germany, where he has lived for 45 years. He would have to be one instead of living on welfare if his music had not been lost in the history of the Federal Republic. #ozanatacanani #baglama #gastarbeiter #canani
