Samba is one of the Brazil's most popular music and dance styles. There are many different types of samba, and these styles differ throughout Brazil. Today, one of the most popular types of samba comes from Bahia, a state in the eastern part of the country. It's called samba reggae. Today in Bahia, 80 percent of the population is black. Samba from this region of Brazil is heavily influenced by African rhythms. Modern samba reggae is a mix of Rio samba, African drumbeats, and Jamaican reggae. It's a bit slower than Rio samba, and is usually performed in large groups. Bahia's most famous drumming group is Olodum. Many people say, the group invented the samba reggae sound. Its members have also created local organizations to help young people and the poor. Every year in the city of Salvador in Bahia, the lively sounds of samba reggae fill the streets during Carnaval - one of the world's greatest parties.
