Culture is really important in our society, which is why people are usually proud of their culture and do everything possible to cherish it. Culture is the identity of a group of people living in a specific area or place. Culture is what helps to define who we are, where we are from, what we eat, what we know, and the kind of language we speak. While music, on the other hand, is a universal language. It can connect with people all around the world. No matter where you are or what kind of tribe you are from, everyone engages with music and loves music. Music is a very important part of every culture. Image A culture or tribe without music is going to be a boring and dull place.

One of the benefits of music in every culture is to entertain us. Music is a good source of entertainment. Through music, people can enjoy themselves and make themselves happy. Whether it's juju, Fuji, Apala, blues, soukous, traditional folks, or highlife, all music genres are good sources of entertainment and fun for each and everyone of us. I could remember while growing up, in my tribe, we children usually used music to entertain ourselves and shared stories within us on the playing field. Music can entertain us anywhere we go, whether in the parties, wedding ceremony, at home, at work, or in the streets. Music is there in every place to entertain us and make us.

In every culture, music works more than just a good source of entertainment. Music can make us happy and forget our worries and stress. Engaging with music can help to reduce stress, increase productivity, increase confidence, stay motivated, and improve our health. With the power of music, we can have peace of mind and overcome stress and anxiety.

In addition to the benefit of music in our culture. Music can also be used to beautify and promote culture. In African cultures, music is commonly used during festivals to pray for peace, prosperity, and happiness within a community. With the help of music during any festival, people in a society can bring people together and make the festival a success and a lovely one. Music can also be used for celebrations such as marriage, religious ceremonies, naming, and birthday ceremonies. Without music on any of these occasions, the place will be boring, dull, and unsuccessful celebration.

Lastly, music exists in every culture and can be used by people in a community as a tool to educate their young ones about their tradition, culture, and history of some past people who are important to their community. Also, through music, someone can learn how a community sings, dances, communicates, how people come together during social gatherings, and how they show love to one another. Music is also a beautiful way to learn how a community celebrates important occasions like birthdays, naming, and weddings. Through music, we can learn about any community culture and promote it.
