Afrobeats emerged in late 1990s Nigeria, blending pop, hip-hop, and dancehall with traditional African music. The genre gained prominence through MTV Base Africa's 2005 launch, featuring melodic hooks, uplifting energy, and the 3-2 clave pattern. Artists perform in English and regional languages, celebrating African identity while addressing life, love, and social issues.
