Lyricist, Composer & Singer

I was born in 1993, in El Jadida,a coastal town in Moroccoo.

I have seven siblings and my parents have always loved arts; and shared this love with us. Harvesting red algae to extract Agar Agar to earn a living, they introduced us to nature; our surroundings.

Through my link to them, to earth, to ocean and to arts, I met traditional moroccan music: el Aita with kharboucha and khadija Mergoum Fatna bent el Houssine and others, Songs of Moroccan Jews with Sami Maghribi, benja,ain bouzeglou... el Hassani of desert with Dimi, Meryem Hassan and malouma mint midah, el Malhoun with Houssine Toulaly and jil jiala after remaking songs from this ancestral music.

I, then, met 60's Reggae with Bob Marley and Jazz with Nina Simone and Ella fitzgerald. I also met Blues and Rock. I write music; world music if I have to name it!
