International/multi-genre protest artist

The international, multi-genre protest artist Abouta (stage name of Abdelhakim Boutachkourt) was born on April 10, 1985, to a Moroccan father and a Romani mother. Even in elementary school, he excelled in language and spelling, which is why he decided to start writing at that early age. Since the 2020s, he has become an indispensable part of the music industry—not only because of the tracks he has released with pioneers of Dutch hip-hop or the attention he has received from Rotjoch, 101Barz (BNNVARA), and Blend (NPO) have given him, but also through his collaborations with, among others, d’Tuniz, Def P, Kaascouse, Logisch, Sondy, Jaap Goud, Yasz Base, Rolly, TR33, Rainey, O-Bat, T.Y.S, Johnny Distortion, Tone Jonez, Ivo Statinski, Jordan River Banks, Lucifer, Chiraqxel, NameOnTheBeat, City Lights, and Boudewijn de Groot (who gave Abouta permission to cover his hit “Welterusten Mijnheer De President”). All of his releases can be found on all streaming services, social media platforms, and online stores (some on Apple Music). Also follow his website: (private link), Facebook, Instagram, Threads, TikTok, YouTube, and X: (private link). Abouta also works as a songwriter and ghostwriter for other artists and clients, in addition to being the founder and owner of the platform AboutaProducts: (private link).
