THE CONSTRUCTION OF FEMININITY IN THE AKAMBA POPULAR SONGS OF BOSCO MULWA
This study examines how femininity has been constructed in the songs of Bosco Mulwa. The objectives of this study are: Interrogating the aspects of femininity through language that the artist incorporates in the songs to construct femininity in different contexts and exploring the elements of performance and their development in interpreting style within the construction of femininity. The study is guided by three theoretical frameworks: intersectionality theories, performance theories and ethino poetics theories. The study is divided into three chapters. Chapter one forms the background of the study, chapter two interrogates the aspects of femininity through language that the artist incorporates in the songs to construct femininity in different contexts and chapter three explores the elements of performance and their development in interpreting style within the construction of femininity.
