Saint Levant, whose real name is Marwan Abdelhamid, is set to perform as a headliner in Casablanca later this year. The Jerusalem-born artist, with a French mother of Algerian descent and a Palestinian father, has sparked controversy due to his use of the Palestinian flag during performances.
According to verified reports, the flag display has led to debates among Moroccan audiences, with some expressing support and others criticizing the gesture. The concert is scheduled for late 2026, though the exact date has not been confirmed.
Saint Levant's music blends Arabic, French, and English lyrics, and he has gained international attention for his outspoken views on Palestinian identity. The controversy in Morocco reflects broader regional sensitivities around the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
