who edip akbayram is

Ahmet Edip Akbayram was a Turkish rock music artist, composer and socialist. He was the lead singer of Dostlar, one of the first rock bands in Turkey. He was excluded throughout his childhood due to polio. During his artistic career, he was censored and oppressed because of his socialist stance. As a result of a disability in his right leg, he was rejected by some groups and organizers due to limited mobility. He reacted to this by saying: "I sing with my voice, I don't sing with my foot.
