Singer Heino wants to leave his “musical legacy” to his manager. He has now revealed how that will work.

Pop singer Heino (82), who has caused a sensation in recent years with cover versions of pop and rock songs (“Kind regards”), is apparently currently arranging his musical legacy. That should go to his manager Helmut Werner (37), with whom he has been working for two years. “I would like to bequeath my musical legacy to him”, said the native of Düsseldorf of the “Bild-Zeitung”. Because: “Helmut has my fullest confidence and nobody identifies with me like he does.”

Heinz Georg Kramm, who is Heino’s native name, also explained the specific plan: “For this we will now found a joint company, of which we are both managing directors and each have a 50 percent stake. The shares of my music publisher and the trademark rights go into this company in the name Heino, which also includes glasses, Heino dolls and my café, “says the musician. But that’s not all: “If I close my eyes, my 50 percent will also go to Helmut, who is supposed to ensure that the Heino brand remains protected and is promoted further,” he adds.

Heino was successful in 2007 with cover versions such as the medical hit “Junge” or in 2013 with “Sonne” by Rammstein. He started his career in the 1960s with pop and folk music. “… and bye – the last album” was released in 2018.
