- W2100059765 abstract "This article examines how Bongo Flava artists in Tanzania commented with their songs on the General Elections of the year 2005. The study is mainly based on the lyrics which are presented in full length in the appendix which is accessible online 1 . The artists voiced criticism of politicians as well as voters, in a direct as well as in an indirect, humorous way. Some praised the presidential candidate of the dominating party CCM. The diversity of style as well as the range of positions taken, show, that Bongo Flava is a multifaceted cultural phenomenon which has assumed a role in public political discourse. However, it also becomes evident that some Bongo Flava artists with their support for the ruling party were aiming at enhancing recognition and acceptance by political leaders. This article suggests that their expressed concern for the nation as well as religion was supportive to that endeavour. 1. The electoral campaign 2005 in Tanzania In 2005, general elections took place in Tanzania for the third time since multi-party rule was introduced in 1992. During all those years the once single political party CCM (Chama cha Mapinduzi – ‘Revolutionary Party’) was able to maintain a clear majority in parliament. This was not likely to be changed through the parliamentary and presidential elections of the year 2005, as the party was (and still is) widely accepted in the country, despite partial dissatisfaction with the government, especially concerning persisting poverty and corruption. However, opposition parties have not been able to seriously challenge the CCM, with the exception of Zanzibar, where the Civic United Front (CUF) is a significant rival.
