Migration and the cultural commodity of Congolese Forced Migration Online (24276783) Migration, asylum and refugee law FORCED MIGRATION ONLINE ARTS MUSIC CULTURE REFUGEE/LOCAL COMMUNITY RELATIONS The period from 1975 to 1985 is often regarded as one of the classic periods of Tanzanian popular music. It was during this decade that some of the country's most highly regarded and popular artists established their reputations in the country, particularly in Dar es Salaam. A significant reason for the success of popular music in Tanzania during this time is the migration of numerous Congolese artists to Dar es Salaam. This paper argues that Tanzania became an attractive option for many Congolese artists, particularly those from the Katanga and Kivu regions, due to a series of political and economic events that altered the viability of living and performing in other areas of eastern and central Africa. 2026-09-30T11:44:46Z Text Online resource 10.25446/oxford.33353028.v1 https://figshare.com/articles/online_resource/Migration_and_the_cultural_commodity_of_Congolese/33353028 CC BY-NC-ND 4.0
