Alte

Alte is a genre of music that originated in Nigeria in the late 1990s. It is a fusion of traditional Nigerian music styles such as highlife, juju, and afrobeat with modern hip hop and R&B. The genre is characterized by its heavy use of percussion, melodic hooks, and a focus on storytelling. It is often seen as a more socially conscious form of music, with many of its songs addressing issues such as poverty, corruption, and inequality.
