«Dancer, anthropologist, singer, songwriter, academic, activist and french knight. Whilst all of these tags are fitting, none of them can accurately describe the energetic, passionate human being who has become one of South Africa’s greatest musical exports. he has campaigned against the injustice of apartheid South Africa and been instrumental in putting the new South Africa on the map as a cultural ambassador (…) Even when Clegg is addressing very specific african dilemmas, there is a universality that accompanies the message and, of course, the music that propels the message transcends any attempt to fit it into a particular pigeonhole. Clegg is a human making human music. Over the past three decades, few have done that as well as him.»
