Fusion techniques like Afrobeats-EDM drops (e.g., Burna Boy x Diplo), K-pop/trap hybrids (BTS), and reggaeton-trap (Bad Bunny) blend global rhythms with Western production. These hybrids subvert genre purity, train listeners to expect fluid boundaries, and redefine “authenticity” as cross-cultural dialogue rather than origin, permanently expanding genre expectations.
