Abstract
This study focuses on music and its role in politics. Music is used as a way for people to express how they feel whether it be about love, happiness, sadness, or depression; people are able to get their point across. In this study, I discuss how musicians use their platforms to discuss politics on how they feel about their government within their country. Politics play a significant role on how citizens live their lives and abide by laws placed upon them. The heart of politics is compromise, trying to come to a understanding or an agreement on solutions to fix the problems of society. In vocal music, musicians are often speaking on the problems in society together like politics seek to inspire the people whom they target in order to advance their ideas. This article aims to provide how music has a role within politics.
