I Do Not Sing Politics. I Merely

I Have One Thing In Common With The Emerging Black Nations Of Africa: We Both Have Voices, And We Are Discovering What We Can Do With Them.

I See Other Black Women Imitate My Style, Which Is No Style At All, But Just Letting Our Hair Be Itself. They Call It The Afro Look.

I'm Not A Politician; I Am A Singer. Long Ago, They Said, 'that One, She Sings Politics.' I Don't Sing Politics; I Merely Sing The Truth.

I Kept My Culture. I Kept The Music Of My Roots. Through My Music I Became This Voice And Image Of Africa And The People Without Even Realising.

In New York I Heard A Piece Of Ground, Written By A White South African, Jeremy Taylor. I Modified It A Little And Sang It Myself. That Song Is Very Special To Me Because It Deals With The Land Question In Southern Africa. We Were Dispossessed Of Our Land.
