Album lore

Hybrid, issued in late 2024 on Universal Music MENA Distributed Labels, collects 21 tracks from A.L.A, a figure rooted in Moroccan rap and Arabic hip hop. The album weaves through varied tempos and moods, as heard in “Noss Ellil” and “Ghetto Roses,” offering a palette that spans from streetwise verses to more melodic Moroccan pop inflections. The record’s breadth—showcased by titles like “Ktebi” and “Ya Ghali A.L.A”—marks a commitment to both lyricism and rhythm, underscoring A.L.A’s presence in the region’s evolving hip hop canon.With over 35,000 scrobbles and a modest but dedicated listenership on Last.fm, Hybrid situates itself as a contemporary artifact reflecting Morocco’s urban musical currents. The album’s production and vocal delivery maintain a clear link to local scene sensibilities, making it a resource for crate-diggers seeking the intersection of North African vernacular rap and pop rhythms from the early 2020s.
