Bio

Najat Aâtabou is a Moroccan singer, songwriter, and composer from Khémisset.

However, her family did not approve of her singing, and she had to flee to Casablanca, where she lived with a music producer for three years. Najat became known for her Chaabi music, which highlights the struggles of modern Moroccan women. She scored her biggest hit with "Hedi Kedba Bayna" and wrote "Shoufi Ghirou," sparking discussions about feminism in Morocco. Najat has brought important changes for women's rights in Morocco through her music. She is also featured in the documentary "Morocco Swings," exploring the lives of two generations of Moroccan singers.
