Career
His first album Kırmızılım was released in 1998, with "Ham Çökelek" released as a popular single. In October 2012, Taş"s release of a cover of Gangnam Style called Yam Yam Style (Cannibal Style) caused some Turkish social media outlets to claim in jest that Taş was actually Greek and named "Athillas Thasos". This jesting continued in 2013 when an online petition proposed that Taş should be selected to represent Turkey at Eurovision, as Turkey has withdrawn from that competition over dissatisfaction with its rules.
Tas also drew front page headlines in Turkey in 1999 when it was reported that he knew how David Copperfield performed one of his illusions.
In February 2014, a humorous video project Tas did with Samsung received over one million views in two days.
