Lucky Dube - Prisoner (Official Music Video)

- If 'Slave' changed Lucky Dube's life, 'Prisoner' changed the South African recording industry. In five days, the album sold no less than 100 000 copies and another 120 000 copies in the next three weeks.
Ironically, in the week of its release, eight of South Africa's longest serving political prisoners were released from jail, a major step in South Africa's slow road to democracy. As so may times before, Lucky had unintentionally tapped into the national spirit of freedom-hungry South Africans.

Lyrics:
Somebody told me about it
When I was still a little boy
he said to me, crime does not pay
he said to me, education is the key, yeah
as a little boy I thought I knew
what I was doing, yeah man
but today here I am in jail
Chorus
I'm a prisoner, I am a prisoner, I am a prisoner
I looked all around me
but to see nothing
but four grey walls staring at me
the policeman said to me, son
they won't build no schools anymore x3
all they'll build will be prison, prison
'cos today, yeah
Chorus
I am a prisoner, I am a prisoner, I am a prisoner,
dear Lord
I asked the policeman and said
how much must I pay for my freedom?
he said to me, son
they won't build no schools anymore x2
they won't build no hospitals
all they'll build will be prison, prison (x4)
Chorus
(till fade)
It's 2024, we are listening to lucky Dube.

The best reggae artist in my opinion
Doesn't get much hype cause he's from south Africa and not Jamaica
Yeah up there with true Rastafari
💯 the best !
Shoot.You must not be talking about St. Lucia,cause I grew up hearing his music.I am from there.People love Lucky Dube...
I was born on the Caribbean island 🏝️ call St. Vincent
I first heard of beautiful reggae from Jamaicans, however I fell in love with reggae because of Lucky Dube
🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
2024 and as a 32 year old this music makes me cry every time. I’m so lucky to still have my mother. She would play this music everyday and one day she just stopped. I think it just makes her too sad 😢. RIP KING
Got tears in my eyes as we speak

Oh hey my rwmsi
RIP legend
nothing is gone as long as we remember all and the lessons they tried to teach us
"On 18 October 2007, Lucky Dube was killed by armed robbers in Rosettenville, a Johannesburg suburb, shortly after dropping two of his seven children off at their uncle's house. Dube was driving his Chrysler 300C, which the assailants were after. Police reports suggest he was shot dead by carjackers who did not recognise him and believed that he was Nigerian. Five men were arrested in connection with the murder; three were tried and found guilty on 31 March 2009. Two of the men attempted to escape and were caught. Dube's convicted killers were sentenced to life in prison." - Wikipedia
He was killed by the same people he was advising in this song. What an irony. Lucky Dube lives on.
The king of African reggae music.
Lucky Dube May your soul continue to rest in eternal peace. Rastas never die. Ndi Hanu Uganda
Amo as músicas dele são canções que mexem com nossos corações eterno Lucky dube descanse em paz 🙏
O meu deus o que fizeram com essa lenda do regue Lucky dube foi uma tremenda covardia suas músicas são melodias que mexem com nossos corações que Deus te dê o descanso eterno
Are you Rwanda?
@@uwiringiyimanarucia7093 my originality but am a Ugandan
African people are one people man "Ndi Hanu" means your home in Venda as well
❤😭😭 Here I am in June 2023, listening to this banger ❤️ emotional thinking of how things were back in the day.. The courage and bravery to make music with such message at that time.. Power!! 😭
Do you ever listen to a song and remember exactly how life used to be when first heard it😭🙌🏼
RIP Lucky Dube October 18, 2007. 15 years Lost brother, man of Peace 🤦🏾♂️😭😭😭❤️💚💛 from USA
May rest in peace 🕊️ RIP 😔😔😭😭😭😭😭😟🥺
still one of the best in the world...much love from Kenya🇰🇪R.I.P legend Dube..we still listen to your word
To think he died in the hands of common criminals! A lot of his lyrics talked about helping children grow up well to avoid them having no direction. His life ended in the hands of kids who lost their way! His message will last forever!
South Africa is screwed now sadly I miss it but I won't go back to live. Thank the ANC
He was one of the best reggae musician
Im 23 now and im now realising how legendary Lucky Dube was.
Anyone listening 2024 .... one of Africas best reggae artist
Still listening in 2022. Love it. Who's with me.

Whenever I see what's going on in my country Uganda.. immediately I run to CZcams en watch lucky dubes music.. mostly this song....2023 still we are prisoners in our own country...rip lucky 😢
Likewise here in Nigeria, are you on Instagram?
Mwen renmen Mizik sa ah anpil oui ki yès ki renmen'l pa se'm ❤🇭🇹🇭🇹💯🇭🇹🇭🇹😭😭
Lucky dub is smooth reggae. Why do people think he should be top twenty of reggae artists?
Am just chilling listening to slow reggae music especially from dube
I pray who ever reads this becomes successful in life
He said it loud and clear. Its happening around the world in diferent countries I was born and raised in Puerto Rico and the government systematically shut down many schools neglecting them stealing money, ment for the Education system and many more atrocities...He sang about the future in many songs and about politics, corruption in government. They said armed robbery but they wanted him gone. 🙏🏽 R.I.P❤
Sad reality of entrenched and systematic corruption

The music is still fresh in my brain,I love lucky dubi
Uncle Lucky,he is my favourite, always❤🎺🎸🎤🎶
Lucky dube music is still the best in 2023_ Greetings from West Papua❤
What a music legend this guy was, the lyrics of his song is an educative message on its own
he was a political mouth piece the way i see it ......at large his music was a tool to convince its audiance to understand life in the so desired direction by the authors....so much input from unknown and hidden sources brewed luck's music for political motives
Still in 2023 and listening to this great song from our legend . May he continue resting in peace
Oh my god, grew up on these tunes.. Him, bob marley and many more Idk there names of. When I was a kid I never understood it but now I kinda understand and love it
In memory of m'y family in to Malawi end m'y 2brothers end m'y sister rip.big love for ever
Be fortified bro
May god mercy them bro
Rip 🌹
Big up
I listen to Lucky Dube songs every day. Resst in peace 🇬🇼🇬🇼
This song is a great one especially for those teenagers who seem to be practicing deliquency,but it's only a few of them who find a chance to meet such songs
Biggest lesson about life, Narrated in a Single Song.. Mad love to All our Gone legends.. thank you for setting a path for us through your Music. ❤️this is so inspiring
I have 24 years and I'm still writing my reggae songs I wish god can help me to sing like you just to bring back your soul to your lovely fun 😭😭
Meu pai ouvia muito essas músicas quando eu era criança, acabou me apaixonei pelo reggae ❤
Faz parte da minha infância, hoje escuto com meu pai 🥰
Que linda ! Parabéns ao seu pai também pelo ótimo gosto musical … estamos juntos
Da mesma forma eu 😊
Vc tem o mesmo nome da minha filha😊
Boa música
The best place to be
Now we are into 2024 still rocking proud to be African 🇿🇼🇿🇼🇿🇼🇿🇼🇿🇼.
Noone can compete with Mr Lucky Dube! RIP❣️
Thanks to my late dad for introducing me to Mr Dube music before he passed I'm very grateful dad and I miss you ❤️❤️
is there a chance you could send it across the African Americans in America some how I think they really need it more than ever today to really understand as well as pass it to the young ones so they can survive
@@barbrasmall4127 I don't know but I will try jus like my dad did to me
Same story braa❤️❤️❤️
@@nhlanhlazulu6372 🙌🏼🙌🏼❤️🤍
This is exactly my scenario. My dad introduced me to his songs. Favorite childhood memory.
Always meeting the demand of the time. Lucky Dube lives on.
He will forever and always remembered even the generation to come. May his soul Rest in perfect peace
yes
He deserves a museum, a statue, or a public holiday ..... RIP legend🙏
Lessons about life narrated in a song 🔥
This song has a deep message for the youth
This is exactly what I told my son that crime does not pay but education is the key, he left school, today he is jailed because of his wrong choice then I become a bad parent, when I say we reap what we sow.
Your killers didn’t listen your messages anymore 😢
RIP legend 🕊️
😢😢

I remember how my dad used to love his songs...Now I see why PURE POETRY ❤️
Dube was a real piece of art rest in peace😢😢😊
What can I say about Luck Dube...He was a legend regae musician and proud of Africa.
Personally for me lucky was very underrated ,he was better than bob Marley ,Lucky's songs made more sense than any African Rastafari combined ,what was the fuzz about bob Marley ,lucky should be crowned king of rasta music
Still can't believe how this talent never won a grammy😞
