Betterov

Betterov, the stage name of Berlin-born singer-songwriter Paul Ivanov, has become a defining voice in Germany’s indie-pop scene with his introspective lyrics and genre-blending sound. Starting his musical journey in the mid-2010s, he gained traction through DIY releases and raw, relatable tracks that mix melancholic storytelling with upbeat synth-pop and folk influences. His 2022 album *OLYMPIA* (and its *Ehrenrunde Deluxe* edition) solidified his reputation for crafting anthems about millennial existentialism, from the restless energy of *Lied vom donnernden Leben* to the hushed vulnerability of *Schlaf gut*. Known for his deadpan charm and candid explorations of monotony, relationships, and self-doubt—as heard in recent singles like *Die Leute und Ich* and *Mein Leben ist monoton*—Betterov’s music feels like late-night conversations with a friend who’s equally poetic and perpetually tired.
