El Bidaouia was born in Ben Mskin Sbata, Casablanca in 1953. She was a pioneer in Aita, an ancestral Moroccan music genre which has a feminist dimension. Khadija took over during her career a male-dominated industry of mostly sheikhs, and became a favorite singer. She was beloved by several Aita sheikhs and became very popular. She released multiple albums and singles, including 'La Yensani', 'Ghzali' and 'Besmlah'.[1]
El Bidaouia died in the military hospital in Rabat from an illness on 15 October 2022, aged 69.[1][2][3]
