Moroccan Singers Protest Exclusion from Summer Festival Lineups

Many Moroccan singers have "monopolized" the programming of summer festivals. Among them, Zina Daoudia, who will sing in several concerts on the sidelines of her participation in the Festival des Plages. The singer Najat Aatabou has made an appointment with her audience, singing in several cities where the musical events are taking place, where she is used to participating in the festival every year, like several other figures who have taken over the programming, we are informed.

Meanwhile, a large number of artists find themselves excluded from the lists of musical events, due to the "semsaras" of art. These recommend their acquaintances to participate in these events. These artists have expressed their anger at the exclusion and marginalization they are facing. They have sent direct messages to the Minister of Culture, Mehdi Bensaid, asking him to intervene to put an end to this situation.
