Hausa music, the traditional music of the Hausa people of northern Nigeria, is an important part of the culture and history of the region. The music is characterized by its deep, soulful vocals and its complex rhythms, which are often performed with traditional instruments like the kalangu (a type of drum) and the molo (a type of fiddle). Hausa music often tells stories about the lives of the people and their struggles, and it is an important way for the Hausa people to connect with their roots and their heritage.
