However, there are dozens of other names that deserve praise, and there are many sites for downloading Moroccan songs, such as Albomati, Samaaha, Asmaa, and Apple Music.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> The Moroccan music scene has witnessed remarkable transformations in recent years, with rap songs topping the lists of listeners and viewers across various

in Morocco, rap has become a powerful force on the music scene in recent years, with it being described as one of the most prominent and successful musical styles currently in the forefront.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> In a related development, Moroccan rapper Dizzy Dros set a new record for this genre in recent days, topping the viewership charts in the top three spots in less than a week after releasing three new songs on his official YouTube channel, according to Moroccan media reports.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Coming in fourth place on the list of the most-watched music on YouTube in Morocco is rapper Zakaria El Benj, with his new song "Rowini," released as a duet with fellow Moroccan singer Monem Slimani, the second time in their long careers in music.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> On the other hand, Ibtissam Tiskat came in fifth place with her new song "Salina", which sparked controversy a few days ago due to Moroccan artist Hamida Al-Bahri accusing her and artist Abdelaziz Al-Sattani of violating the intellectual property rights of one of his songs released in 1998, by copying parts of Tiskat's new song, threatening to resort to the judiciary to obtain his rights, while pop singer Nouamane Belaiachi came in seventh place with his new song "Khianaan". </p><figure class="image image_resized"

The country is known for its musical traditions and rituals, categorized by region, generation, and ethnic background, but this has not prevented the emergence of new, shared genres.</p><h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <span style="color:hsl(187, 48%, 51%);">The most famous Moroccan music:</span></h2><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Malhun music.<br> Rai music is a popular folklore music in eastern Morocco.<br> Aita music<br> Gnawa music, or Guinean music, is of African origin.<br> Andalusian Arab music<br> Aissawa music, rooted in Sufi music.<br> The art of embroidery, the music of Moroccan Jews.<br></p><h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <span style="color:hsl(187, 48%, 51%);">Modern Moroccan song or Moroccan wave</span></h2><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> The term modern song is used to describe a group of songs dating back to the 1950s. Moroccan researcher and composer, Professor Azouz Al-Hawri, confirms that the true emergence of this song and its spread in the Arab world and the region began in 1960 with the emergence of the pioneer generation such as Abdel Salam Amer, Ahmed Al-Baydawi, Abdel Wahab Al-Dakali, and Abdel Rahim Al-Saqqat, and among the female singers were Samira Saeed, Aziza Jalal, Asma Lamnawar, and others.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> The Arab world's acceptance of Moroccan music, particularly in the Gulf states, has prompted Moroccan stars to release songs in their native dialect, after previously singing in Egyptian, Lebanese, or Gulf dialects in an effort to gain exposure. This is the case for singers like Samira Saeed and Jannat.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> In just a few years, music began to transform into a real industry thanks to artists like Saad Lamjarred, Ahmed Sultan, Abdelhafid Douzi, Hatim Ammor, Hoda Saad, Asma Lamnawar, Ahmed Shawky, Mohamed Reda, Oum El Ghaith Bint Sahraoui, Zuhair Bahaoui, Nouamane Belaiachi, Aymen Sarhani, Cheb Younes, and Aminox.<br> Abdelhadi Belkhayat.. The dean of Moroccan song</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> For more than 50 years, the songs of Abdelhadi Belkhayat, a native of the ancient city of Fez, have been popular in Morocco and across the Arab world. Although the dean of Moroccan song retired from singing in 2012, he returned once again through religious singing, which leans towards Sufi praise, and he was able to combine his rich Arabic song heritage with Sufi religious heritage. The dean of Moroccan song presented many immortal pieces, the most famous of which are "Qitar Al Hayat" (Train of Life) and "Ya Dak Al Insan" (Ya Dak Al Insan), pieces characterized by a Moroccan dialect that is easy to understand even for people from the Levant.</p><h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <span style="color:hsl(187, 48%, 51%);">Ibrahim Al-Alami: A purely Moroccan brand</span></h2><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Although more than 15 years have passed since his death, the songs of singer Ibrahim Al-Alami live on to this day, passed down from generation to generation. He is known for carefully selecting the lyrics for his songs and choosing appropriate melodies for them, creating a unique artistic combination that made him unique in his style, unparalleled and untried by any other singer or composer. Among his most famous pieces are “Ya Li Suratak Bayn Aini” (The One With Your Picture Between My Eyes) and “Wadasha Shahal.” Moroccan youth, enamored with authentic art, compete to sing his pieces.</p><h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <span style="color:hsl(187, 48%, 51%);">Abdul Aziz Al-Stati... the owner of the golden finger</span></h2><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Artist Abdelaziz Al-Arabi, a native of El Jadida province, known as "El-Stati" (The Stati) due to his extra finger, is considered a pioneer of Moroccan folk song. Some even describe him as the "King of Folk Singing." He is also one of the most famous violin players, to the point that his way of playing the instrument alone represents a unique masterpiece. His light, fast-paced songs have made him the king of Moroccan evening parties and weddings. His songs "Atiyouni Visa," "Hakamat Alia Al-Zourouf," "Memti," and "Jarbet Nas Kaa' El-Nas" have enjoyed great popularity both inside and outside of Morocco.</p><h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <span style="color:hsl(187, 48%, 51%);">Saida Fikri...the voice of the poor</span></h2><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Casablanca native Saida Fakrihi, better known as Saida Fikri, showed her singing talent at an early age, which qualified her to be the voice of the youth, conveying their suffering, concerns, and aspirations. She was able to convey the daily life of the ordinary Moroccan citizen through her songs, from colloquial and classical Arabic to French, in addition to her skill in playing the guitar. Among her famous songs are "Jebel Rif" and "Salouni An Al-Azab." She became famous in the 1990s, but then disappeared from singing for a long time due to her emigration to the United States, before returning to singing again.</p><h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <span style="color:hsl(187, 48%, 51%);">Mohamed Rouicha.. The Voice of the Atlas</span></h2><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Mohamed Rouicha, a native of Khenifra in the Atlas Mountains, began his artistic inclinations early on. His career began with radio, then concerts and weddings, eventually culminating in the production of albums in the Amazigh language, which were widely popular inside and outside of Morocco. He also has several spiritual songs that celebrate Sufi heritage, and a passion for playing the Moroccan stringed instrument, incorporating oriental maqams into his compositions, developing a refined taste. The composer of the masterpiece "Inas Inas" passed away in 2012, but his influence remains present as far as the East. Recently, the Egyptian singer Hamza Namira visited his city and sang "Inas Inas" again.</p><h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <span style="color:hsl(187, 48%, 51%);">Fatima bint Al Hussein... an icon of Aita singing</span></h2><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> The voice of Fatima Bint Al Hussein, an icon of the Aita art, used to infiltrate every Moroccan home via radio and television, and her powerful voice filled the desert sky. Along with her group, Awlad Ben Aqida, she recorded more than 200 songs, adding them to Morocco's artistic repertoire. However, after visiting the holy sites, she severed her connection to singing, before passing away in 2005. The daughter of the city of Sidi Yanour was famous for songs such as "Al-Shalini" and "Al-Alawwa." Through her singing, Moroccans inhaled the fragrance of a musical heritage that extends back into history, and was one of the means of confronting French colonialism.</p>
