Summary

Merskawi is a Libyan popular-song field with important Benghazi/Barqa and southern connections. The name also covers disputed boundaries: some practitioners distinguish a particular southern repertoire from the wider popular music marketed under the label. [1]

Contemporary and trending

A 2023 account describes changing electronic arrangements and broad social circulation. Composer Masouda al-Qarsh’s 2025 interview confirms continuing discussion among Libyan musicians about the form and its critics. Neither praise for innovation nor nostalgic complaints about decline settle the musical definition by themselves. [2] [3]

History

Murzuq is often invoked in origin accounts. A 2013 practitioner/researcher discussion also identifies living southern practice in Hun, Ghat and Sabha, while explaining Benghazi’s important role in absorption and wider recognition. This supports several connected landscapes rather than either a sole origin pin or an exclusively coastal history. [1]

Musical characteristics

Accounts describe vocal song with locally meaningful poetic and melodic conventions, and combinations of wind instruments and percussion. Mawwal introductions and a faster tabrwila ending figure in some descriptions, but practitioners disagree about whether these are defining components. Modern keyboards and other instruments extend rather than standardize the whole field. [1] [2]

Geography and communities

Benghazi and connected Barqa communities receive a strong eastern field. Southern practice has its own Fezzan field, and western coastal circulation is lower. Libyan cultural documentation places the music in weddings and celebrations nationally; that reach does not mean equal intensity across the desert or every coastal repertoire. [4]

Artists

Ali al-Sha’aliya, Mohamed Sidqi and Shadi al-Jabal belong to the historical popular-song account, with attribution of particular music as Merskawi sometimes contested. Mohamed Marshan is an important practitioner voice in that debate. These names identify a history, not a list of currently active performers. [1]

Malouf/Andalusi traditions, Arabic pop and rap contribute to Libya’s wider musical landscape. Comparative accounts sometimes liken Merskawi’s changing social voice to Raï; that analogy should not substitute for its particular Libyan repertories and institutions. [35]

Hotspot mushrooms

Eastern Libyan popular core, independently documented Fezzan practice and lower western coastal circulation. Retain disputes between narrow repertoire and broad commercial label.

The fields express editorial judgments about relative musical affinity and reach, not measured audience shares. Radius is the zero edge of a linear fade; same-genre overlaps combine by maximum.
