Yassine Sekkoumi (Arabic: ياسين سيقوم, romanizedYāsin Sayaqum), known by his stage name Ali, originally Daddy Ali (born 1975) is a French rapper of Moroccan origin.

He started his music career with Booba as rap duo Lunatic and is now a solo rapper artist. For a certain time, he also used the stage name Africain Lié à l'Islam before deciding on using his mononym Ali.

After the split-up of Lunatic, Ali released his album Chaos et Harmonie in 2005,[1] collaborating with 45 Scientific. In 2015, he released the album Que la paix soit sur vous.
