Johnny Clegg & Savuka released this song as part of their album "Cruel, Crazy, Beautiful World" in 1989. An interracial music group based in South Africa, Clegg & Savuka challenged apartheid through both the makeup of their group and the protest rhetoric included in their songs. "One Man, One Vote" is a more outspoken example of this, with an introduction that directly calls out other Western countries that had historically ignored South Africa's situation. Even its title itself is a common slogan in countries where voting rights are an issue, aligning itself with protest rhetoric right out of the gate. "One Man, One Vote" is an encapsulation of Johnny Clegg & Savuka's goals, and the rallying cries of their era as pressure mounted on South Africa to finally dispel the system of apartheid for good.
