"A WEEK AGO, HE TRANSFERRED THE RIGHTS OF HIS WORKS TO HIS DAUGHTER"
Singer Yaşar İpek stated, "I am in shock, I wish it were a nightmare. Erol brother is someone I have known since I was 6 years old. He was part of our home, we have been living in the same site for about a few years. We talked before, he said 'I am doing new things, hopefully, I will work one day.' Erol brother is not someone who would throw himself away because of his troubles and difficulties. He is not someone who would allow another to throw him away. He was living alone, I really don’t know what to say, I am in shock. As far as I know, his daughter is studying abroad. I learned from a friend just a moment ago that a week ago he transferred all the rights of his works from MSG (Musical Works Owners Group) to his daughter. He did such a thing out of the blue a week ago. He transferred all his rights and earnings from his company and works to his daughter," he said.
