Hugh Masekela
Verve, Johannesburg, South Africa
Hugh Masekela, born near Johannesburg in 1939, grew up immersed in the urban and traditional sounds of South Africa. As the apartheid-era government continued to perform crimes against humanity, Hugh was able to flee South Africa for studies in London and New York. There, he was instrumental in gaining worldwide exposure for the anti-apartheid movement, while studying with folks such as Herbie Hancock, Chick Corea and Donald Byrd. A horn player and liberation song writer like none other, he has stayed adventurous toward music, befriending and recording with artists as diverse as Sly Stone, Fela Kuti, Paul Simon and Bob Marley. For several decades on the African continent, he has kept pushing, working tirelessly to create opportunities for young African musicians and creators.
