In recent years, the rap music scene in Morocco has been experiencing a new wave of talent, and this time, it’s coming from the world of YouTube. With the rise of streamers and content creators, several Moroccan YouTubers have found their way into the rap game and are making waves with their unique style and talent.
One such YouTuber is Ilyas El Malki, a native of El Jadida and known for his streamer content. However, he recently took on the rap genre to address criticism from fellow rapper El Grande Toto, who compared his content to being of poor quality. Ilyas responded by dropping a diss track titled “LMTENTEN“, which quickly became a hit among his fans and the rap community.

Following this, Ilyas seemed to have a newfound love for the studio, and he dropped another rap song titled “LALALALA.” This song sparked a back-and-forth between several fellow YouTubers, including Skaymen, who decided to reply with his own diss track. This response managed to trigger Ilyas, who dropped another banger titled “EVROS.”
The rise of these Moroccan YouTubers in the rap scene has been met with mixed reactions, with some traditional rap fans feeling that the new wave of talent lacks the authenticity of traditional rap. However, these YouTubers bring a fresh and unique perspective to the genre, incorporating their own personal experiences and perspectives into their music.
The success of Ilyas El Malki and other Moroccan YouTubers in the rap scene is a testament to the versatility and talent of these content creators. With their ability to entertain and engage their audience in multiple ways, they are sure to make a lasting impact on the rap scene and beyond.
