Fújì is a popular Nigerian musical genre that originated among the Yoruba people, evolving from the ajísari tradition of Islamic praise singing during Ramadan.

The music is highly energetic and danceable, typically maintaining a moderate to fast tempo, conveying a celebratory and often spiritual or socially conscious mood. It shares a close lineage with other West African genres like Jùjú and Apala, representing a vibrant part of Nigeria's musical heritage.
