This complilation album was inspired by the controversial Sun City resort, a luxury complex located in the heart of one of the most repressed regions of Apartheid South Africa. Featured artists include Little Steven, Miles Davis, Bob Dylan, Peter Gabriel, Jimmy Cliff, Bruce Springsteen, Jackson Browne, Run-D.M.C., Lou Reed, Keith Richards, and Bono.

"Sun City" became an anthem of the anti-apartheid movement and its campaign for sanctions, functioning like a soundtrack for the movement. It may have helped people to understand apartheid better than the plethora of news stories and TV reports. Pop stars did what politicians wouldn't and journalists couldn't: They spoke out bravely and clearly. They took a stand. By standing up, they encouraged others to stand up with them and with the people of South Africa against a universally condemned racist system.
