MUSIC AS LITERATURE

I think Music can be identified as literature because literature is the collective works of a culture or imaginative or creative writing of recognized artistic value. Many artists get very creative in their music just like in poems. A  novel is no different authors use their creative thinking to make amazing stories so i do consider  music as literature because its a way people can express themselves a way a culture can express itself and its no different  from  a novel or song lyrics are like a poem when you think about it.
