Mezwed (Arabic: مزود) is a genre of popular traditional music based on Tunisian scale rhythms. It incorporates traditional North African drums called Darbouka and a kind of bagpipe called a mizwad with a bag made from ewe's leather. Usually, it is sung in Tunisian and Algerian linguistic varieties. Originally the music of the countryside and the working classes; it is often played at weddings and parties.

The themes of Mezwed are social, family, and love. Nowadays new fusions of Mezwed, with Hip-Hop and Rap are becoming popular. Some of the most popular singers include Fatma Boussaha, Samir Loussif, and Hedi Habbouba.
