His m obra.art/mansour # Mansour Producer Composer Songwriter Artist Singer since 2022 Mansour — Madsultan / Sultan Mansour is a Moroccan musician, songwriter, composer, and multi-instrumentalist whose work moves between tradition and experimentation. His music draws from both the sounds he grew up around and the worlds of music he discovered along the way, creating a personal blend that moves freely between Moroccan musical heritage and contemporary global sounds. Under his solo project Madsultan, Mansour explores electronic music, hip-hop, jazz, deep house, and neo-soul while drawing inspiration from Moroccan music and its diverse rhythmic, melodic, and cultural traditions. Rather than treating these influences as separate worlds, he brings them together through modern production, creating music where electronic textures, grooves, samples, harmonies, and Moroccan musical ideas can coexist naturally. Madsultan is a space for experimentation. It allows Mansour to move beyond the boundaries of a single genre and explore the relationship between rhythm, atmosphere, melody, and sound. Moroccan influences can appear subtly or directly, woven into electronic productions alongside jazz harmony, hip-hop rhythms, deep-house grooves, and neo-soul textures. The result is a sound that is contemporary while remaining connected to where it comes from. Alongside his solo work, Mansour is the lead singer and songwriter of Sultan, a Moroccan band whose sound brings together gypsy rock, blues, Gnawa, and Moroccan musical traditions. The band's music combines raw, guitar-driven energy with hypnotic rhythms and the spirit of North African musical heritage. A defining element of Sultan is its use of Moroccan Arabic through the poetic form of zajal. Mansour's lyrics draw from everyday Moroccan language, poetry, observation, frustration, resilience, contradiction, and the darker sides of human experience. Rather than simply reproducing traditional Moroccan music, Sultan uses zajal as a lyrical foundation and places it within a contemporary fusion of rock, blues, gypsy music, and Gnawa. The contrast between Madsultan and Sultan reflects two different approaches to the same artistic identity. Madsultan is the experimental side — electronic, fluid, and open to influences ranging from hip-hop and jazz to deep house, neo-soul, and Moroccan music. Sultan is the raw, live side — built around voice, guitars, rhythm, poetry, and the musical heritage of Morocco. At the center of both projects is Mansour's desire to create music without strict borders. His work is an ongoing conversation between Moroccan roots and contemporary sound, between traditional forms and modern production, and between the music that shaped him and the music he is still discovering. Rather than choosing between heritage and experimentation, Mansour sees them as part of the same musical language — taking what comes from Morocco, mixing it with everything that inspires him, and transforming it into something personal, modern, and unmistakably his own. ## Has worked with [Explore all credits](https://obra.art/mansour#artistas) 296 Total plays & views Projects4 Since2022 ### Let's work together Projects, collaborations and professional enquiries.
