The son of an African-American soldier and a German mother, Hartwig was one of the first players who is of African descent in German and Austrian football.
William "Jimmy" Hartwig (born 5 October 1954) is a German former professional footballer who played as a defensive midfielder.
In 1980, the single Mama Calypso was released, with Sometimes on the reverse side, on the RCA label.
Hartwig won the European Cup in 1983 with Hamburger SV, and was three times German league champion in 1979, 1982 und 1983 and three times league runner-up with Hamburger SV.
He also earned two caps for the West Germany national team, making him only the second non-white player (after Erwin Kostedde) to achieve this feat.
After his playing career, Hartwig worked as a coach at FC Augsburg in 1989 and FC Sachsen Leipzig in 1990.
He entered the TV business, where he has been working ever since, whilst also appearing in the theatre as an actor.
In his 1994 autobiography, Hartwig described his tough childhood in the city of Offenbach am Main where he was born.
He recounted a childhood full of poverty and anti-black racism, with only his German mother as support; his biological African father from Senegal never took care of him.
Hartwig is married for the fourth time and has three children.
In 2021, he featured in Schwarze Adler, a documentary detailing the experiences of Black players in German professional football.
Despite his opposition against anti-black racism, he was criticized for using the word "ching chang chong" in his commentary and then bowing, which was perceived as racist against East Asians, on WELT-TV for the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
The WELT management company removed the video from YouTube and Hartwig posted an apology on his Instagram.
