Cherifa Kersit was born in 1967 in Tazrut Mu Uxbu in the area of Khénifra. Cherifa started training her voice when she was a little girl looking after her herd. At sixteen she started singing at weddings and local festivals and events. The natural talent of her voice has put Cherifa Kersit in the position of a cheikhat - professional singers and dancers who sometimes are part of the chorus of great masters, and other times become soloists continuing an ancient tradition of poetry declamation. <a
