In recent years, genres such as Afrobeats and reggae have gained popularity, with artists like Eddy Kenzo and Bebe Cool leading the modern music scene. Festivals and events celebrate this rich musical heritage, showcasing both traditional performances and contemporary acts that resonate with audiences locally and internationally.
