"In recent decades, Morocco has emerged as a key player in the global music scene, not least in hip hop. Moving effortlessly between street-level ethnography of the rap scene and analysis of the political economy of transnational cultural flows, Kendra Salois offers a keenly observed, historically grounded, and eminently readable history of Moroccan hip hop."--Hisham Aidi, author of Rebel Music: Race, Empire, and the New Muslim Youth Culture

"Guided by her steady refusal to dismiss Moroccan hip hop artists and their fans as complicit with the state, as sell-outs to the market, or alternatively as resistant, Salois's caring world of neoliberal subject making is alive with improvisations, debate, ethics, human dilemmas, fortitude, music, and young people having fun."--Louise Meintjes, author of Dust of the Zulu: Ngoma Aesthetics after Apartheid
