The countdown to ‘Foras’ begins
While fans are enjoying “Chouka,” some are already looking ahead to another track.

Responding to fans asking about its release, Manal revealed that “Foras” is expected to arrive in September, giving listeners another release to look forward to in the meantime.
A growing music legacy
Manal has spent years establishing herself as one of Morocco’s most recognizable contemporary artists, with one release after another helping shape her distinctive place in the country’s music scene.
Hits such as “Makhelaw Magalou,” “Kalimat,” “Mahboula,” and “Cabaret” have become staples on Moroccan playlists, while their music videos and performances have continued to generate millions of views.
Her ability to experiment without losing her identity has also allowed her music to travel beyond Morocco, while keeping strong connections to the country’s sounds and culture.
She recently teamed up with Moroccan rapper Stormy for “ Sata 9ttala” and “Katana,” while also featuring on Inkonnu’s “Warda,” with both collaborations gaining millions of views and strong momentum.
With “Chouka,” Manal adds another track to a catalog that continues to grow while keeping fans waiting for what comes next.
And if her September announcement is anything to go by, “Foras” may be the next song to keep them talking.
