This book traces Dadakuada's history and artistic vision and discusses its vibrancy
as the most popular traditional Yoruba oral art form in Islamic Africa. Foregrounding
the role of Dadakuada in Ilorin, and of Ilorin in Dadakuada the book covers the history,
cultural identity, performance techniques, language, social life and relationship
with Islam of the oral genre. The author examines Dadakuada's relationship with Islam
and discusses how the Dadakuada singers, through their songs and performances, are
able to accommodate Islam in ways that have ensured their continued survival as a
traditional African genre in a predominantly Muslim community.
