French Montana is on top of the world, and it showed as he led a massive Times Square rally to celebrate his homeland of Morocco making World Cup history.

French — who was born and raised in Casablanca, Morocco until his teen years — had pure joy written all over his face after watching his Atlas Lions play the Cinderella role.
Morocco is now the first African, and first Arab-speaking country to advance this far in the World Cup tournament — and they’ve defeated powerhouse teams like Belgium, Spain, and now Portugal, along the way.
