MEDIAMUSIC OF POLITICAL PROTEST
Abstract
The review article attempts to reveal the evolution of protest actions of musicians in the new era, to trace the change in musical genres in which political protest has become most pronounced. If at the beginning of the twentieth century we can speak of melodically bright revolutionary songs, then in the first decades of the twenty-first century we can mainly hear recitative raps containing sharp criticism of the actions of governments' officials and civil servants. The author shows how the protest music movement is shifting to the Internet and becoming a network video creation, how repressive actions and online opposition journalism become the reasons for a retaliatory artistic and musical media protest. The main persons involved in the article are Soviet and Russian rock musicians and rappers and their protest songs. Similar examples from the other countries such as United States, Spain, Belarus and Thailand are given.
