[edit]Awards controversy

At 10 February 1999 televised annual music awards ceremony, SHOW TV, at which he was to be named Musician of the Year, he spoke out about his Kurdish background and said that he wanted to produce music in his native Kurdish as naturally as he does in Turkish. He announced that he had recorded a song in Kurdish (Karwan, released on the Hoşçakalın Gözüm album in 2001) and intended to produce a video to accompany it. At the event, he had been protested by some famous singers, actors, producers, journalists after his talk.

Exile and death:

Hiç kimsenin dikkatini çekmiş mi acaba... böyle tipleri kıçını yırtarcasına eleştirenlerin de yere göğe sığrdıramayanların da seviyesi aşikar.

Ben kaale almayanlardanım.Olsa da olurdu olmasa da olurdu Ahmet Kaya. Şahsi kanaatim bir IQ testi yapsa 80'i geçemez.

"..Berbere gitmem, gideni de sevmem..."
