About the project
Our goal is to provide a comprehensive resource for fans, researchers, and anyone interested in the history of Moroccan rap.please feel free to contribute.
The motive
I’ve been a huge rap fan since the 90s, and I’ve had the chance to watch how
the genre evolved in Morocco over the years. Seeing the culture grow and change
here has always fascinated me, and I wanted to find a way to capture that history.
I felt it was important not only for other fans like me, but also for anyone
curious about how Moroccan rap came to be what it is today.
That’s why I decided to create this website. It’s my way of documenting the journey
and progress of Moroccan rap. I hope it serves as a resource for fellow fans
and also sparks interest in anyone thinking about making a documentary like Netflix’s
Hip-Hop Evolution. rap.
The process
We have spent countless hours researching, fact-checking, and compiling
information to create this timeline. We have gathered information from
various sources to avoid any bias or misinformation. We have a team of
volunteers who are passionate about Moroccan rap music and ensure that any
mentioned information is accurate and up-to-date.
Our goal is to provide an accurate and detailed account of the history
of Moroccan rap music.
Data Quality
We strive to provide accurate and up-to-date information in our timeline.
However, due to the nature of historical research, some information may be
incomplete or inaccurate. For that reason, we tend to envolve some history
experts to help us in the process of fact-checking and verifying the
information.
