Schipper from zaandam did vlogger Ismail Ilgün signs contract with record label Top Notch NU.nl

“I want to make a documentary. About deprived areas. How is it to live there, what problems people have,” says the 19-year-old Ilgün to de Volkskrant.

Ilgün was itself in the news through his vlogs about the local neighbourhood Poelenburg. There are also videos in between which young people harass others and threaten. It led to the arrest of Ilgün due to agitation. A month ago he offered his apologies.

“What Ilgün as a boy of 19 in his one has achieved in such a short period of time, that’s not normal,” says David Koster, project manager at Top Notch, to the newspaper. “He is the voice of a generation.”

The record label focuses on the multicultural youth, which according to the company fits well with the vlogs of Ilgün. “Ismail has achieved more in five weeks than the public service broadcaster in the whole of 2016,” explains Top Notch-boss Kees de Koning. According to him, reached the vlogger to a wider audience.

“even before there was a commotion about him was I knew Ilgün all,” says The King NU.nl. “I simply found it very interesting. There was a lot of music in, he gave place to the unknown artists. Therefore, I thought it was the commotion about him very unfair. He did anything at all where there is no commercial interest served. He is someone who shows something.”

The Top Notch boss calls his actions might not useful. “But if the mediagoden bad mood, and fight against you, and you’re 19 years old, then it is a played match.”

“What we are trying to do, is talented people are trying to support, facilitate, and their work to promote it. We pay attention solely on his talent; that he sure. Or he is an excellent example for young people is not to us. Some parents see a VVD-leader as an example for their child.”
