Iranian singer Shervin Hajipour’s protest song “Baraye” which has become the anthem of the revolution in Iran was played at the JeanPaulGaultier Haute Couture by Haider Ackermann (h.a) in Paris. 💚🤍❤️ Hajipour composed the song from tweets by Iranians stating why they’re protesting. The lyrics talk about corruption, censorship, gender discrimination, environmental degradation, and lack of basic rights under the Islamic Republic. The song received over 40 million views on Instagram within 48 hours until authorities forced Hajipour to take it down and arrested him on September 29, 2022. Hajipour, 25, was released on bail on October 5. He hasn’t been active on social media ever since, but his song continues to be played around the world. #jeanpaulgaultier #parisfashionweek #iranrevolution #middleeastmatters
