Known affectionately in South Africa as a ‘people’s poet,’ Mbuli has been haunted for his political convictions throughout his career. His home village of Sophiatown was razed to build a white settlement. His debut album, Change Is Pain, was banned by the South African government upon its release in 1987. Nine years later, shots were fired into his car while he was driving. The following year while in Pretoria to discuss the attempt on his life, he was arrested, along with two companions. Denied bail, he was held in a cell for a year and a half before his trial was held. It marked the eighth time that he had been detained.
