The artist looks back on his early years and tells how his single mother raised him and his brother. The family did not have much money.
Bad Vilbel – The pop singer Sasha (“If You Believe”, “Slowly”), who was born in Soest in North Rhine-Westphalia, says he did not have an easy childhood.
“We didn’t have a lot of money,” the 50-year-old told the private radio station Hit Radio FFH in Bad Vilbel near Frankfurt. Although he did not have an unhappy childhood, he was shaped by life at the financial minimum. “If you have ever looked for your clothes at “Rot-Kreuz Soest”, then you develop a fine antennae for injustice. I also worked as a garbage collector,” the musician recalled.
He is all the more grateful to his mother, who raised him and his brother alone most of the time. Whether it was going to high school or the dream of becoming an entertainer or musician: “She always supported me,” he said. dpa
