Afro fusion
Dance genre and musical style / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Afro fusion (also spelled afrofusion or afro-fusion)[1][2] is a dance and musical style that emerged between the 1970s and 2000s.[lower-alpha 1] In the same way as the dance style, the musical style invokes fusions of various regional and inter-continental musical cultures, such as jazz, hip hop, kwaito, reggae, soul, pop, kwela, blues, folk, rock and afrobeat.[lower-alpha 2]
