Burru drumming is also known as drums of defiance. This style of drumming was used in many ways over the years. It originated in West Africa and later moved to the Caribbean as a result of the Slave trade. In West Africa it was used as a form of expression. All the villagers grew excited to see a show put on by the men. Burru was often used as a type of, "talking drums" due to the configuration of the drumming. In some songs lyrics were incorporated as well. On beat one drummer would, "call" and one would, "answer" similar to a conversation between two or more people. Burru was typically described as an aggressive form of drumming due to its loud and hard beats. Three types of drums are used in most cases. Such as, funde, repeater, and bass drum. In later years, it was moved to Jamaica and eventually developed into reggae.

This was my main source I used. Douglas Ewart is a Jamaican composer and artist so he is quite trustworthy. He wrote the article about Nyahbingi, which was a movement predominately in the 1900s that used the technique of Burru drumming. Douglass goes in depth of Burru's history and origin.
