The different regions
and
nations of Africa have
distinct musical traditions, given the vastness of the continent. The music of North Africa
for the most
part has a distinct history from sub-Saharan African music traditions.
The music and dance of the African diaspora, formed to varying degrees on African musical traditions, include African-American music and many Caribbean genres, such as soca, calypso and zouk. Latin American music genres such as the flamenco, samba, rumba, salsa, and other clave (rhythm)-based genres, were also founded to varying degrees on the music of enslaved Africans, and have in turn influenced African popular music.
