Ceremonial music (rokon fada) is performed as a status symbol, and musicians are generally chosen for political reasons as opposed to musical ones. Ceremonial music can be heard at the weekly sara, a statement of authority by the emir which takes place every Thursday evening.
Courtly praise-singers, like the renowned Narambad, are devoted to singing the virtues of a patron, usually a sultan or emir. Praise songs are accompanied by kettledrums and talking drums, along with the kakakai, a kind of long trumpet, derived from an instrument used by the Songhai cavalry.
Rural folk music includes styles that accompany the young girls' asauwara dance and the bòòríí trance cult. Popular Hausa music includes performers like Muhamman Shata, who sings accompanied by a bevy of drummers, Dan Maraya, who plays a one-stringed lute called a kontigi, Audo Yaron Goje, who plays the goje, and Ibrahim Na Habu, who plays a small fiddle called a kukkuma
