Black Superman" Muhammad Ali. 1974. At the "Rumble In The Jungle" in Zaire, Africa, boxer Muhammad Ali knocks out George Foreman (unbeaten in 40 fights) in the eighth round in a stunning victory that earns him the heavyweight title he was stripped of for refusing induction into the US Army in 1967. The fight is recounted in the 1975 hit " Black Superman " by Johnny Wakelin & the Kinshasa Band.
Johnny Wakelin got the idea of writing a homage to the boxing champion Muhammad Ali who fought on 30 October 1974 in Kinshasa, Zaire, against George Foreman in a matchup known as The Rumble in the Jungle, gaining victory in the eighth round. The song was Wakelin's "Black Superman (Muhammad Ali)" released in late 1974 by Pye Records. In January 1975 the song reached number seven in singles charts of both UK and Australia. It also spent six months in the US Billboard Hot 100 in more than one chart run in 1975, eventually peaking at No. 21 in September of that year.
