Kerim Tekin (April 18, 1975, Istanbul – June 27, 1998, Afyon) is a Turkish singer, songwriter, composer and actor. He became one of the important artists of pop music with the albums he released since the mid-1990s. The artist, who has a career of nearly five years, has made him stand out in the pop music market with the words he wrote and the songs he interpreted.

Influenced by many artists such as Kayahan, Sezen Aksu, Nilüfer and Fatih Erkoç, Kerim Tekin decided to quit football in 1992 due to his passion for music, with the influence of guitar and singing education, and started his music career. He plays guitar and sings in nightclubs and bars as an amateur, and also begins to write his own songs. While playing in a nightclub, he is admired by the manager Halis Bütünley and discovered at that time. Kerim Tekin started to create the content of his first album professionally in 1994.[1] He entered the market with his album Kara Gözlüm (1995). With this album, he succeeds in making his voice heard, and his acting career begins by appearing in television series during this period.[2] When he changed his style and image with his second album, Haykırsam Dünyaya (1997), he started to appeal to large audiences. Kerim Tekin, who started writing lyrics with this album, worked with musicians such as Kenan Doğulu, Ozan Doğulu, Garo Mafyan, Zeynep Talu, Şehrazat, Ozan Çolakoğlu, İskender Paydaş, Feyyaz Kuruş and Tayfun Duygulu.[3]

Tekin, who was nominated for many important awards such as the Kral Turkey Music Awards and the Golden Butterfly Awards at a young age, went to the festival held in Afyon on June 26, 1998 with many artists. Kerim Tekin, who appeared on the stage as the last artist at the festival, died in a traffic accident on 27 June in Sandıklı, while leaving the festival early with her manager Halis Bütünley and returning to Istanbul.[4] His songs were sung again by many artists after his death.
