Early life[]

Abderrahmane Kaki was born in Mostaganem in the popular neighborhood of Tidjitt. From his childhood he developed in contact with strong cultural traditions. One of his grandmothers knows from memory a large number of kacidate[1](stories), one of his uncles is a music lover. He participates in popular festivals in which the meddahs[2](storyteller), rubs shoulders with the Bedouin songs master Cheikh Hamada whose children are his playmates.
