The soundtrack

Match-Day Playlist + Chants

What plays from the trunk in Lot K. What we sing when Hakimi scores.

The Atlas Lions playlist

Chaabi king

Stati

Wedding-bus energy. The auntie playlist. Plays at every Moroccan tailgate from Paterson to Atlanta.

Modern hip-hop

ElGrandeToto

"Caviar," "MORocco." The soundtrack of the post-2022 generation. The young-men cohort puts this on.

Pop / Crowdpleaser

Saad Lamjarred

"LM3ALLEM," "Salina Salina." Everyone knows the words. Cross-generational unifier.

Producer / Anthem

RedOne

Moroccan-American producer. "Mama Africa" plays during the team intro; raises hairs.

The elders demand it

Nass El Ghiwane

If you don't know who they are, ask your father. Plays during the slow afternoon tea hour before kickoff.

Berber / Amazigh

Houssa Kabiri

For the Atlas-mountain crowd. The Tachelhit songs that remind you the Atlas Lions are named for Atlas.

Diaspora favorites

Manal · Inkonnu · Soolking · Ghali · Rim'K

Adjacent diaspora favorites — Maghrebi-French rap that crosses borders.

The chants

ديما المغرب
Dima Maghrib
"Always Morocco." The signature chant. Sustained, in waves, after every goal.
سير سير
Sir Sir
"Go Go." Shouted during attacking runs. Builds tempo with the play.
يا لطيف
Ya Latif
"Oh Gentle One." Whispered when we need a save. Half prayer, half plea.
هيا هيا المغرب
Hayya Hayya Maghrib
"Let's go, let's go Morocco." The classic stadium chant — known by everyone.
حكيمي ! حكيمي !
Hakimi! Hakimi!
When #2 takes off down the right wing. Sometimes followed by "Olé olé olé."
المنتخب المغربي
Al-Muntakhab Al-Maghribi
"The Moroccan national team." Formal — usually started by the older guys, the rest join.

A note on the post-2022 mood

After the semifinal run in Qatar, the rest of the world started joining Moroccan chants in stadiums. Hear an English-language chant in our section? Welcome them. The Atlas Lions are now everyone's second team. That's the gift of 2022.
