Raperîn, born Dilek Demir in 1985 in Van, Turkey, is a prominent Kurdish singer and songwriter.
She is known for her hauntingly emotive vocals and "muzîka rojavayî" (westernized Kurdish music) that blends traditional themes with modern acoustic arrangements.
The title phrase, "Tu li xwe baş binêre," is a common Kurdish parting expression meaning "Take good care of yourself". It represents a final, selfless wish for the other person's well-being despite the narrator's own heartbreak. Artist Profile: Raperîn
