An essay on the support of decision to award a singer-songwriter the Nobel Prize in Literature.

The Nobel Prize is is a set of annual international awards bestowed in several categories by Swedish and Norwegian institutions in recognition of academic, cultural, or scientific advances. The prize is in accordance with will of the Swedish chemist, engineer and industrialist Alfred Nobel, who established the five Nobel prizes in 1895. The prizes are widely regarded as the most prestigious awards available in their respective fields, awarded to outstanding people who have contributed immensely to these fields in a way that is beneficial to the whole world.  The Nobel Prize in Literature is one of the fields that is awarded the Nobel Prize. It is a Swedish literature prize, awarded annually since 1901, to an author from any country who has, in the words of the will of Alfred Nobel, produced "in the field of literature the most outstanding work in an ideal direction." The award is based on an author's body of work as a whole.

Music as we all know is a form of literature accompanied by melody and beats, it is not a literary exception simply because it isn't  just restricted to spoken words or text. The fact is that, singer-songwriters should be accorded more respect; they embody a vast combination of talents because they don't just have to write, they also have to sing and in some cases, act out their songs in a video cover of their songs. In the words of Alfred Noble, the prize should be awarded to people that have "in the field of literature [produced] the most outstanding work in an ideal direction." It is only logically and morally right for us to admit that some singer-songwriters have blessed us with  songs very rich in content. Singer-songwriters like Micheal Jackson, Elton John and Micheal Bolton among others, all have given us songs powerful enough with so much positive message that  has in most cases reached down deep within us and touched our humanity within.

Some people have argued that some singer-songwriters have tainted the music world as a whole, but we cannot ignore the very outstanding few just because of a whole other lots of skewed singer-songwriters. Conventional literature too isn't without its share of rouge writers, still, the outstanding ones among them are recognized (the same should be done in the music world). Encouraging prestige in song-writing will only encourage singer-songwriters to aim for soul dignifying songs.

Truth be told, we all know that music has been a bigger driver than conventional literature. Most people are able to relate more with good songs than they would say with 'a good poetry'. Music is inherent in the human nature, and if we wish to change or make the world a better place, the message can only be sent through a single language, 'Music'.

The above reasons are just a tiny fraction of a world of reasons why singer-songwriters should be awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature, singer-songwriters don't just make good music most times, they make the world a little better and tolerable with messages of hope and love, and the best among them preach humanity.
