 analysis the artists who died at the age of 27 Americans have used songs and music to exercise their rights and freedom of speech as provided for in the constitution. Through music, they have been able to draw attention to critical areas in society and called out on authority for any policies they deem as derogative and in violation of individual rights and privileges. Additionally, Americans have also demonstrated their unwavering nationalism and support of the government and its policies through music. As such, music is instrumental as an avenue of mass mobilization, and the messages conveyed in songs, have within them the ability to provoke feelings and emotions in support or to criticize social, political and economic policies.
