About Me:
InI keeping Lucky Dube's Music and Message alive Iver.
Lucky's Legacy will be as Ambassador to de World.
RASpekt de RastaMan!!!
Reggae will never die!
Lucky brought vibrancy to everything he did. An electrifying performer with an incredible octave range, poignant lyrics, flawless arrangements, and great body moves, Lucky was markedly different off stage. Low key, soft spoken, even shy with those he didn't know, he was compassionate, witty, funny and engaging. It's true, he neither smoked nor drank. "I don't do drugs and I don't do windows."
His mission was to educate, entertain, and unite. His messages of togetherness, consciousness, respect, self-empowerment and peace always found an eager audience at the River. In the only two polls ever taken, Lucky was the people's top choice both times when asked who they wanted to see perform the following year.
My hope is that he did not die in vain, that the final brutality he suffered will compel us all to listen with open hearts to his soul pouring out from his music, and to take action to make this world a better place for our children.
Lucky, may your spirit dance in peace and may all those who loved you find solace, hope, and joy in a life well lived.
Lucky Dube - Peace Perfect Peace
