Making a name for himself with his new single, Çağlayan Topaloğlu complained about the current state of the music industry.
Topaloğlu said, "Fast consumption is at its peak. That is why the music industry has turned into a dump. Believe me, I took a break from the stage for a while just because of this. During this process, I took acting lessons. At this point, I decided that it would be logical to carry out both jobs together."
