Afro-Funk

Afro-Funk is a genre of music that combines elements of funk, soul, jazz, and African rhythms. It originated in the late 1960s and early 1970s in West Africa, and has since spread to other parts of the world. It is characterized by its heavy use of percussion, syncopated rhythms, and call-and-response vocals. The genre is often associated with the music of Fela Kuti, a Nigerian musician who popularized the style.
