West Africa's musical heritage includes a wide variety of popular music styles, especially from the countries of Senegal, Ghana, Côte d'Ivoire and Nigeria. In addition griots, wandering musicians and praise singers, are found throughout the region, and some musical instruments (like the kora and some kinds of drums) are found in many West African countries.
