A descendant of Awlad Jelale tribe in Tata where poetry is deeply instilled in the culture, Jamal Laoudi hails from Mohammedia Morocco where he was born and raised.  He moved to the states in the late eighties where he completed his studies.  He now resides in the Greater Washington DC area. 
Given his background, it was no surprise that he was attracted to poetry at a very early age.  Before he was ten years old, his work was featured at the Al-Andaleeb children’s magazine.
He enjoys writing in North African Moroccan dialect but he does venture in writing in English, MSA, and French.
He explains his technique and approach in writing as transforming emotions to words.  It is a translation from a language that has no rules, no syntax, and no morphology, to a natural language.
He believes that in writing, one should always express an idea, an emotion, or a thought
without consideration to any social or political correctness, because doing so takes away from the work’s authenticity.  After all, that’s a luxury that is not afforded to all writers and one should therefore take advantage.
His writing can be controversial, deviant, and even rebellious of nature at times.
He is currently working with various artists on their future albums including Mourad, GadiRai, among others.
