History Of The Yoruba Talking Drums
Talking drums are very important in the Yoruba culture. They are used for communication and music. The talking drumming tradition has always been a part of the Yoruba history. It got it's way into Juju music and has since remained a big part of it. I. K Dairo, King Sunny Ade, Commander Ebenezer Obey and many other Juju musicians have all used the talking drums in so many songs.
