Music of Senegal

Senegal's musical heritage is more well-known than most African countries, due to the popularity of mbalax[?], which is a form of Wolof percussive music; it has been popularized by Youssou N'Dour[?]. Sabar[?] drumming is especially popular.

A Senegalese immigrant to France, MC Solaar, has become an international hip hop star.
