Beschreibungen
Bachelor Thesis from the year 2017 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Other, Adekunle Ajasin University, language: English, abstract: This work focuses on exploring the concept of Marxism through Nigerian music and by examining how artists have been able to use the institution of music as an instrument of evaluating society. Music is not regarded as entertainment alone but it is seen as an instrument of revolution and a tool through which artistes proffer solutions to various societal problems. Music and society are inseparable entities and the latter is a great reflection of the former. Music, in several ways, depicts the culture of a society; it is a reflection of the total way of life of a certain milieu. It does not exist in a vacuum but within the cyclic continuum of the communal life of the people.
This discourse looks into the songs of two musicians. They are Segun Akinlolu (Beautiful Nubia) and Folarin Falana (Falz). The songs examined are Ominira, Revolution Time, Everybody Knows, We Live Here Too, Matters Arising, Masters of the Earth, Locust Season, The People Are Ready, The Small People’s Anthem, Harvest Time, Higher Steps, Boosit and Wehdone sir.
