What “afrobeat” means

Wiktionary · Wikipedia

afrobeat

  • nounA fusion of jazz and funk from Nigeria.
Full entry on Wiktionary →

Afrobeat is a West African music genre, fusing influences from Yoruba and Ghanaian music with American funk, jazz, and soul influences. With a focus on chanted vocals, complex intersecting rhythms, and percussion, the style was pioneered in the 1960s by Nigerian multi-instrumentalist and bandleader Fela Kuti, who popularised it both within and outside Nigeria. At the height of his popularity, he was referred to as one of Africa's most "challenging and charismatic music performers."
