World fusion, also known as "global fusion" or "world beat," is a catchall term for the many cross-cultural musical collaborations that fuse Western pop with indigenous pop and folk traditions from around the world. Often these fusions are the result of collaborations between Western musicians and local stars, such as Paul Simon's acclaimed 1986 album, Graceland, which featured several South African artists, including Zulu choral group Ladysmith Black Mambazo.
