Zule Zoo is a Nigerian music duo that formed in the late 1990s by Michael Aboh and Al-Hassan Ibrahim who were both from Benue State.[1][2] They are known for their fusion of different musical genres such as traditional Nigerian rhythms, hip-hop, and reggae.[3]
They became known after the success of their controversial hit song “Kerewa”, which was banned by the Nigerian Broadcasting Commission (NBC) for obscene content.[4][5] They were one of the top musical groups in Nigeria in the early 2000s, with their unique dance steps.[6] Zule Zoo performed at the 2018 Headies.[7][8]
The duo split up in 2008, after Aboh released a solo album titled “E dey pain me”. Since then, they went silent musically.[9][10]
In 2022, Aboh died after slumping in the bathroom while having his bath.[11][12] Zule Zoo is remembered as one of the pioneers of the Takuraku beat,[13][14] which projected Nigerian culture through creativity in lyrical composition and innovative use of African percussion instruments.[15]
