Obito (also written Obito333 or Obito.Triple3) is a rapper from Rabat, Morocco, known for abrasive, rapid-fire delivery over industrial-textured beats and a street-written slang from the Rabat-Salé area.

Background

Obito comes from Rabat and is part of the crew he calls FAKE GANG, according to his Spotify profile. Rolling Stone MENA includes him on its Future Radar 2026 list, describing an abrasive, rapid-fire style and industrial-textured production. Critics at DimaTOP singled him out in their 2025 year-end lists: one called him a possible “new talent of the year” and praised the Rabat-Salé slang and energy in his writing, while another described him as a standout discovery with “his own lane” and sharp wordplay. He names the late Moroccan rapper Nab Fake as a main inspiration, according to one of those critics.

Releases and milestones

His 2025 tracks “Fama Haja”, with Villain, and “Carnage” each placed ninth on individual critics’ lists of the best Moroccan rap songs of 2025 at DimaTOP. He has appeared on “Code 13” with S13 and Deimi, on “SERF” with Ramoon (2026), and on the single “Vaudou”, featuring MADN3SS. “Machi Crips” is the single he pinned on his Spotify profile.
