  Luanda - Angolan musicians and students defended Thursday in Luanda, the need of artists to assess and be more careful with the content of the lyrics of their songs, with attention to the rescue of moral and civic values.

  Singer Dog Murras advised his colleagues as opinion makers to evaluate the content of their lyrics, given the loss of moral values in the society.
  
  Speaking to ANGOP, Dog Murras deplored the fact that these songs are played in children parties or places much visited by children.

  In his turn, Margareth do Rosario suggested that that the Ministry of Culture should be stricter on this.
