- W4385739428 abstract "AbstractThe discipline of sociology digs out the empirical reality of societies based on affirmed epistemological frameworks. Sociological theory, methodology and research in Nigeria are deeply encapsulated in dominant Western-oriented epistemes and objectivity designs aimed at value-free assumptions, yet they are non-universally applicable to ascertaining nuanced realities with impacting outcomes. Guided by Justin Labinjoh’s 1982 Metaphor of Change to engage the objectivity versus subjectivity debates in the sociological practice, this paper argues that sociology is a colonising epistemology that requires a decolonising strategy through popular culture-music research to unearth the nuanced and subterranean reality of the subaltern classes in Nigeria’s liberal democratisation process. The paper also uncovers the taken-for-granted nuances of everyday life in the areas of power and governance, poverty and development in Nigeria’s democratisation process. Data were sourced from popular music of Damini Ebunoluwa Ogulu (Burna Boy) and Folarin Falana (Falz), which highlighted power, politics and development contradictions in Nigeria’s liberal democracy.Keywords: Hegemonic universalismdecolonial theorysubjective approachpopular culture-musicmetaphor of changedemocratisation in Nigeria Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationNotes on contributorsAyokunle Olumuyiwa OmobowaleAyokunle Olumuyiwa Omobowale (PhD) is Professor of Sociology at the University of Ibadan.
