Sub-Saharan African music is characterised by a "strong rhythmic interest" that exhibits common characteristics in all regions of this vast territory, so that Arthur Morris Jones (1889–1980) has described the many local approaches as constituting one main system. C. K. Ladzekpo also affirms the profound homogeneity of approach. West African rhythmic techniques carried over the Atlantic were fundamental ingredients in various musical styles of the Americas: samba, forró, maracatu and coco in Brazil, Afro-Cuban music and Afro-American musical genres such as blues, jazz, rhythm & blues, funk, soul, reggae, hip hop, and rock and roll were thereby of immense importance in 20th century popular music. The drum is renowned throughout Africa.

Обычно для этого барабана используют плотную породу деревьев, например, красное дерево. Звук извлекаемый на джембе должен быть очень звонким. Кожу натягивают достаточно сильно. Играют на джембе ладонями.Основные удары: Бас (в центр мембраны), Тон (основной удар по краю мембраны), Слэп (шлепок по краю мембраны). Артикуляция (звуки): Бас — Бим, Бам, Бум.Тон — Ту, Ти.Слэп — Та, Па. (ru)
