Afrobeats, not to be confused with Afrobeat or Afroswing, is an umbrella
term to describe popular music from West Africa and the diaspora that
initially developed in Ghana, Nigeria, and the UK in the 2000s and 2010s.
Afrobeats is less of a style per se, and more of a descriptor for the
fusion of sounds flowing out of Ghana and Nigeria. Genres such as hiplife,
jùjú music, highlife, azonto music, and naija beats, among others, were
amalgamated under the "Afrobeats" umbrella.
