Helly Luv

Helly Luv is a Kurdish-Iranian singer, songwriter, and activist whose bold music and fearless persona have made her a cultural icon. Born Hanaa Abdurrahman in Urmia, Iran, she grew up in a refugee camp in Greece before her family settled in Finland. Later moving to the U.K. and Los Angeles, she blended her Kurdish roots with Western pop, creating anthems like *Revolution* and *Risk It All* that champion Kurdish pride and resilience. Known for her vibrant style (she’s nicknamed “Kurdish Barbie”) and high-energy performances, Helly’s music often merges infectious dance beats with politically charged lyrics, as seen in tracks like *Yalla Habibi* and *Barrio*.

Beyond music, she’s a vocal advocate for Kurdish rights, even performing in conflict zones like Iraqi Kurdistan. Her recent releases, including *Zooba* and *Boy Bye*, continue her trend of empowering, cross-cultural bangers, while *Guns & Roses* and *Finally* showcase her knack for blending personal storytelling with global pop appeal. Whether she’s sparking dance floors or conversations, Helly Luv remains unapologetically herself—a warrior princess with a mic.
