Rapper and composer, Gandhi Djuna, better known by his stage name Maître Gims, has often expressed his love for the ochre city by frequently visiting it. The leader of the rap group Sexion d'Assaut chose the Pearl of the South to shoot scenes for his two videos "J'me tire" and "Zombie".
In 2013, the iconic French radio host, Sébastien Cauet, decided to revisit the cult song "Pump Up The Jam" by Technotronic. Sébastien Cauet arrived in Marrakech with a single desire: to party with his friends Big Ali and Laza Morgan, but the road to the hotel held some mishaps for him.
Shot in the enchanting scenery of the Palmeraie, the video Lm3allem by young Marrakchi singer Saad Lamjarred has gone viral! The video surpassed one million views in less than 48 hours on Youtube, a record that got him into the Guinness Book, a first in the Arab world.
