3ala Mazag Small X [ Curated Playlist ]

In the third episode of our new series, ‘علي مزاج’ - where we ask artists and industry figures to soundtrack their moods, influences, and favourite tracks - we have Moroccan rapper Small X, who currently stands as one of the most influential artists in the region’s hip-hop scene.

Small X’s playlist is a compelling multi-layered moodboard that mirrors his enigmatic personality, moving through various genres and styles, from funky electronica and indie-rock to drill and R&B. His picks features Kendrick Lamar’s ‘Feel’, Radiohead’s ‘Scatterbrain’, Jay Rock & SZA’s ‘Redemption’, along with Flamingosis’ ‘Sunset Park’, Saad Elbaraka’s ‘Ana Tayeh’, and Di-Meh’s ‘Ténébreux’.
