Description of zouk music

Zouk is a musical genre originating in the French Caribbean islands of Guadeloupe and Martinique in the 1970s. It is a blend of various styles, including Haitian kompa, Trinidadian calypso, Brazilian samba, and Cape Verdean morna. Zouk is characterized by its infectious rhythms, prominent use of synthesizers, and smooth, romantic vocals. Over the years, zouk has evolved into several subgenres, including zouk love, zouk ragga, and zouk bass. Zouk has gained popularity around the world, particularly in Africa, Europe, and the French-speaking Caribbean.
