Babo: Short for "Boss Babe," a term for a confident and independent woman.
Not at all, a "Babo" is a male, typically some sort of gang leader.
Apparently imported from the Zaza language via Bosnian and used mostly
in turkish or ex-yugoslavian youth subcultures. The rapper "Haftbefehl" ("arrest warrant") had a song "Chabos wissen wer der Babo ist" ("the
boys know who's boss") about 10 years ago.
