Mappila Paattu is a traditional music genre that originates from the Malabar region of Kerala, India, intricately weaving the cultural and religious heritage of the Mappila Muslim community with the region's folklore and musical traditions. Characterized by its unique blend of Arabic, Malayalam, and Tamil influences, the genre often employs poetic lyrics that reflect themes of devotion, love, and social issues. Typically, the music features a harmonious mix of melody and rhythmic beats, often accompanied by traditional instruments like the harmonium and tabla. Artists such as Saam Shameer and Rehna have contributed to the genre's evolution, infusing contemporary elements while preserving its rich cultural essence, thus appealing to both traditionalists and modern listeners alike.
