DYSTINCT is the urban artist sensation of the moment. With the hits ‘Ghazali’ - which became
the song of the Moroccan team at the last Football World Cup in Qatar - and ‘TekTek’ - which
travelled the world - the Belgian of Moroccan origin has managed to seduce both at home
and abroad. And that’s an understatement, because his songs, mostly sung in French and
Moroccan Arabic with sometimes a touch of English, Dutch or even Spanish, are listened to
by all generations, young and old, all over the world.
DYSTINCT was born in Antwerp, Belgium, son of an artist father who passed on his love of
music. His first single ‘No Ring Ring’ in 2017 was an immediate success. The artist hasn’t
stopped since. His debut album ‘Mon Voyage’, released in 2021, went gold within a week. It
immediately entered the charts in Belgium, Holland and Morocco. The singles ‘Ya lala’, ‘Boussa’
and ‘Habiba’ went on to win gold and platinum certifications.
In parallel with a completely sold-out international tour, DYSTINCT announces its second
album ‘Layali’ (‘My nights’ in Arabic) for June 2023. An album that quickly became his
consecration. In less than 3 months, the hit maker broke all records in France, where he
earned his first 3 SNEP gold certifications: ‘Business ft. Naza’, ‘TekTek ft. MHD’ and ‘Ghazali
ft. Bryan MG’. Breaking records also worldwide, ‘Ghazali’ went straight to number 1 in the
charts in over twenty countries. On YouTube, the video clip has already been viewed over
+100 million times.
That same year, DYSTINCT was nominated for the NRJ Music Awards as ‘Révélation Belge
2023’, and won the title of ‘Best North African Artist 2023’ at the Trace Awards. In December
2023, the ‘Layali’ album track ‘La’ went viral, reaching number 13 in the world’s most popular
videos. Not to mention a number of international chart positions. In 2024, he wins the prize
of ‘Best album’ of the year by FunX, the n°1 radio in the Netherlands.
Thanks to his catchy melodies and the different languages in which he sings, DYSTINCT has
built up a solid fanbase that extends far beyond the Moroccan diaspora from which he
comes himself. Most of his fans are divided between Central Europe - especially France - and
North Africa. He has succeeded in blending the musical influences of his origins with the
sounds that have shaped him from an early age, such as urban music, Arab music in general,
afrobeat, kizomba and pop.
His soulful voice, his extraordinary talent and the fusion of all these influences in his music
have made him the best artist of his generation in his genre to date. DYSTINCT is currently
back in the studio. He is also touring Europe, Canada and the USA this year. 2024 is looking
bright for DYSTINCT with new songs ‘Wala 5,7,10’, ‘Salam’ and the great success of ‘Spider’
featuring GIMS that already got Gold certified in France.
