Taoufiq Hazeb (born 8 October 1983) better known by his stage name Don Bigg, Bigg da Don or simply Bigg, is a Moroccan rapper and producer from Casablanca.[1]
Bigg is widely regarded as one of Morocco’s most influential rappers,[2][3] renowned for his sharp lyricism, impeccable flow, and socially conscious themes. His music resonates deeply with urban Moroccan youth, addressing pressing issues such as corruption,[4] social inequality, and everyday struggles with unflinching honesty.[5][6] Combining technical mastery with a direct, confrontational style, Bigg has cemented his reputation as both a rap pioneer and a voice for his generation.
Biography
Fluent in English, Don Bigg began singing in English before Masta Flow, a rapper very close to him, advised him to sing in Darija to be understood by all Moroccans[7] . In 2006 his first album Mgharba Tal mout was released .
At the end of 2015, he collaborated with nine other artists — DJ VAN, Asmaa Lamnawar, Ahmed Soultan, Ahmed Chaouki, Douzi, Nabyla Maan, Khansa Batma, Hamid El Kasri and Rachida Talal, Dizzy DROS — in Kafana Soukout, a piece for road safety subsidized by Renault Maroc[8] .
At the end of 2018, a clash pitted him against "new generation" rappers, notably when he released his title 170 kg and others.[9][10]
In 2025, Bigg, alongside fellow rap star Shobee, took on the role of head judge for JamShow, a nationally televised rap competition aimed at showcasing Morocco's rising hip-hop talent.
