Hear Him

South African reggae singer, Lucky Dube, was shot and killed in suburban Johannesburg, the apparent victim of a carjacking.

Lucky Dube started off singing in traditional South African style, but turned to the appealing rhythms of reggae, which he thought could better convey his social commentary.

I loved Lucky Dube so much. He made me happy and he also made me think.
I have never in my lifetime meet such a happy, upbeat positive person.
After a Lucky Duibe concert I would leave feeling so "Uplifted". Sometimes with that high
I couldn't sleep for 2 days he was exciting. I have a Myspace Profile that it 100% dedicated to Lucky until the 18th of October. Below is a portion of my dedication:

Luck y Dube was a person who inspired.....that makes him a LEGEND.
Lucky Dube had noble qualities, extreme admiration and devotion to his music, fans, friends and family.....that makes him a HERO.
Lucky Dube was able to convert South Africa's inferiorities into something of higher worth (Awareness) through his music to all that chose to listen.....that makes him an ILLUSTRIOUS WARRIOR.
Lucky Dube was SUBLIME and he will be remembered forever in our hearts.
I really miss him
