The White Zulu. One of South Africa's best musican/producer since Anton Fig, Mutt Lange and way before Dave Matthews.

He wasn't even born in South Africa, but became South African and even became fluent in the toune of Zulu

Johnny combined Celtic with Rock with Zulu maskanda music, creating a unique crossover genre. He wrote and sang in isiZulu. He united South Africa's diverse peoples. He also risked his life to battle apartheid. His impact was enormous in many ways both in and beyond music. RIP Skeyi.
