Listening Guide for Yoruba Music (by Ajara Jagne)
Music is very important to Yoruba culture, and in addition to this, Yoruba artists are dominating Global Music currently. This activity is to test listening. Essentially, pick a song below (or a few), listen to the song, refer to the lyrics, write a translation of the lyrics, and write about what you like as well as do not like in the songs in Yoruba. This page works as a music guide and, of course, a lesson. Enjoy!
