The mid-2010s saw a resurgence with Dizzy Dros and collectives like Zawa City, and WDS, who brought fresh energy and a new wave of talent to the forefront, including artists like ElGrandeToto.
As the genre matured, Moroccan rap began attracting international attention, leading major labels like Universal Music Group and Sony Music Middle East to sign local artists. This global recognition was driven by the genre’s unique sound, characterized by its use of Darija and innovative beats.
