Yvonne Chaka Chaka's iconic songs such as Umqombothi, I Cry for Freedom and Motherland became more than just musical hits, they were anthems of resilience for black South Africans during some of the darkest days of Apartheid.

Imran Garda visits Chaka Chaka at her home in Johannesburg, where she tells him that in order to effect change, it is necessary to take a stand and raise one's voice. The singer, songwriter and activist was lauded by former President Nelson Mandela and has been an advocate for global health and development issues, particularly malaria prevention and championing children's rights.

Chaka Chaka speaks about the poverty and brutal racism she endured during her early years living under the apartheid regime and discusses how much has changed in South Africa since then in politics and music. She also speaks candidly to The InnerView about how she handles fame and money.
