World Music: Lucky Dube, "The Way it Is"
(South Africa) Lucky Dube is probably the most famous single musician to come out of South Africa. He has recorded over 21 CDs, and is a reggae icon. Early on in his career during the apartheid regime, he was attracted to the platform that reggae afforded for political commentary. "The Way It Is" speaks for itself in its denunciation of lying politicians, and the melody is typical soulful Dube.
