“Kaan has decided to leave the show for personal reasons”, announces the RTBF by press release while the ultimate evening of the knockouts is being broadcast this evening on the front page. “Kaan would like to thank the coaches and the public for the immense support he has received.” And the public service to continue about the 19-year-old Brussels rapper who had been all the rage during his blind. “Throughout his journey, the candidate was able to demonstrate his talent and share emotional moments with the public. The candidate leaves the adventure after the show broadcast this Tuesday at 8 p.m..”
“This morning I was knocked out”
And the press release to conclude. “Production and RTBF will not comment on this decision.” Kaan, quadruple buzz during his Blind, had joined the Black M team and had also stood out on several levels this evening. Starting with his lack of… punctuality. During the rehearsals of this knockout, Kaan was indeed already absent. Suddenly, Black M calls him to find out where he is (“My friend, we’re on the set, do it as quickly as possible!”) and the young man from Brussels explains himself. “This morning, I was knocked out, I was sleeping and I had forgotten my day when I was supposed to come, confesses the rapper who decided to challenge himself by interpreting Mozart’s assasymphony at the Rock Opera.
From talent stolen to… flown away
In competition against Andrea and Saphyra, Kaan was not drafted by his coach who preferred Saphyra. But the talent, which learned to “kaanalize” itself, was then stolen by Typh Barrow. “Kaan, I’m sorry but you’re too interesting man!” Howl of joy on the set. “It’s with whom I have to negotiate so that you are on time, she then jokes. With mom or dad?” “No it’s with me,” says Kaan. “We’re going to work huh!” concludes Typh. Except that the RTBF then announces that Kaan must leave the adventure “for personal reasons”. Typh Barrow therefore still has the opportunity to “steal” a talent to recover this talent… flown away. “Typh will pick up a talent to complete his team for Live, we will keep you informed,” says RTBF on Facebook.
“I saw him winning this season”
“He wasn’t ready!” On social networks, Internet users are saddened by the unexpected departure of this “showman”. “I would have loved to see him live. Very beautiful voice in any case! Too bad”; “There was a rapper missing in Belgium… if you see this message I hope you will continue, you have a real talent”; “An interesting candidate who is leaving… too bad” or “It’s a shame, I could see him winning this season. I hope he can continue a musical career because I think he has talent… “
