If only they could replace other things so quickly

The video looks promising... but this isn't Africa. This would be perfect for Africa at DAK, but Morocco at Epcot? Eh, it's a bit of a stretch, no?

The article says their music is Berber-based, which is certainly present in Morocco.

They are from Agadir, Morocco originally. It's a good fit.

And it's not like Morocco is actually in Africa either

 

[doctornick]

It is something that should be expected, but I wanted to give kudos to Disney for filling the vacant entertainment slot so quickly. And it looks like a great fit too.

Hopefully, Disney will be proactive with maintaining the number of entertainment acts in the parks going forward.

Morocco is a North African country - seems like it is a perfect fit.

Ok, ok. But at least i'll admit that i'm an ignorant American when it comes to geography.

Blame it on the Aladdin meet and greet?

Blame it on the Aladdin meet and greet?

That actually may play into it a bit... Aladdin makes me think of an entirely different place than when I picture Africa. It's been a long time since i've taken a history class and i've never been to these places, so much of what I see at Disney influences me subconsciously (unfortunately), being an AP holder/local.

Based on the video clip, this act looks like it will be much more enjoyable than the last act.

This looks like a fun group, cute guys too

.. the lead has some pretty comfy pants going on there.

Good fit. Great sound.
Sorry I'll miss it.

 

[alissafalco]

Definitely a lot more lively than the last act. I like it, I think its a good addition. Now all they need is a belly dancer going around the stage to the music.

As long as it isn't Beiber based.

Seems to be more in the Mo'Rockin style of influenced by the region, while B'net Al Houwariyate seemed to be much more traditional. Hopefully they extend their stay, I'd like to see them live.

Thank you Disney gods! Hated these ladies. They just screeched and were off key all the time. I get henna every trip and am friendly with the henna ladies and they even said they hated that group. I loved Mo'Rockin and was very sad when they left. This new group looks good.

It's a shame I'll miss it, they look like they'd be a fun group to watch live.
