    INTRODUCTION

    The simplest definition of culture is the way of life and manner in which societal activities unfold. Sir Tylor Burnett (1871) expanded on this, describing culture as a complex whole encompassing knowledge, belief, art, morals, law, custom, and other capabilities acquired by individuals within a society. Culture profoundly impacts individuals, and its elements are integral and cannot be disregarded.

    Cultural elements, whether direct or indirect productions, are adopted through interactions, conquests, or contact with different cultural levels. To gain a better understanding of Nigerian cultures, it's essential to delve into brief historical events.

    Nigeria, a country with 250 ethnic groups and 500 languages, was amalgamated in 1914 by the British government, leading to struggles for self-rule and advocacy for seven years after the declaration of nordlig and Southern protectorates.

  • Introduction

    1What the Mauritian is going through at the moment is a gradual (and almost imperceptible) dilution of traditional lifestyle and values, so that Asian communities are brought closer to ‘general population’. Certainly in a few generations’ time, everybody will be living a more or less Creole lifestyle (Ngcheong-Lum 2003: 56).1

    2In the Indian Ocean, the meeting between Indian and Creole worlds, through the migration of the indentured labor which followed the abolition of slavery in 1834, gave birth to a style of music called ‘chutney’. This term, which connotes a ‘spicy’ music, is also referred to as chatkar (flavour, explosive) or dhamaka (big sound, explosion). Whereas bhangramusic comes from Punjab, the origin of chutney music lies in the rural folk music of Eastern India, namely in the Bhojpuri-speaking regions of Bihar and Uttar Pradesh.
