Four Moroccan Rappers Join Nas's Mass Appeal Label

Moroccan rap reached a new international milestone as four Moroccan artists became part of the Mass Appeal family, the legendary New York label co-founded by Nas. What started with one pioneer quickly grew into a full Moroccan wave inside one of hip-hop’s most respected houses.
Small X opened the door in April 2025, becoming the first artist from the MENA region to sign with Mass Appeal, followed by his debut EP “NAFIDA” in May 2025. Then producer Ramoon and rapper 7ARI joined the roster with their joint album “101”, built on a shared vision of mixing Western inspiration with the Moroccan sound.
On May 29, 2026, Ramoon brought 7ARI and Madd together on the single “LASTIQUE”, released under Mass Appeal / Fya Gang. The cinematic music video shot straight to the top of YouTube trends in Morocco with nearly 400,000 views in two days, passing 4 million views since.
Four different voices: Small X, 7ARI, Ramoon, Madd, now carry the Moroccan flag inside Mass Appeal. From Shayfeen to Sensus, from Safi to Casablanca, Darija rap earned its place on hip-hop’s biggest stage, proving the scene no longer needs validation, only partners who trust the vision.
