===Tourism=== Starting in the 1980s, a number of Guinean djembefolas (Epizo Bangoura, Famoudou Konaté, Mamady Keïta) started hosting study tours to Guinea, allowing djembe students to experience Guinean culture first-hand. Many other djembefolas followed suit; as of 2014, a potential visitor can select from tens of djembe tours each year. Djembe tourism created a market for djembefolas in Guinea that previously did not exist. Young djembefolas try to emulate the success of their predecessors and cater to the needs of the tourists, leading to change and commodification of the original djembe culture.<ref name="Flaig" /><ref name="Gaudette">{{cite journal |last=Gaudette |first=Pascal |title=Jembe Hero: West African Drummers, Global Mobility and Cosmopolitanism as Status |journal=Journal of Ethnic and Migration Studies |volume=39 |issue=2 |pages=295–310 |doi=10.1080/1369183X.2013.723259 |date=20 September 2012 |s2cid=145753409 |df=mdy }}</ref>
