    To this day I don't think South Africans understands what we had in this man, one of the Greatest musicians to ever walk on this planet.

    So much respect for Lucky Dube. He listened to his inner voice, and decided to do reggae music. He is the first reggae artist in South Africa, and the greatest. If you believe you can, don't hesitate, do it. If it's your time, if it's yours, then it will definitely happen. I pray for each and every artist to be able to express themselves fully. Never be afraid of who you are. STAY POSITIVE AND STAY TRUE ❤❤❤

      My the dear the audience today is more interested in listening to songs that glorify woman's physique/body, partying, drugs, money, infact all about enjoying life, today's music is no more about conscientizing the people, I mean conscious music, Burna Boy said it all that 90% of what they sing lack content, but he meant no disrespect to anybody.

    There's no way you will listen to songs of Lucky Dude deeply and not be connected to the struggle of Africa. Music is a thing of the gods and the only thing that easily connect and communicate with the soul. Sleep well LEGEND

    Bob pioneered reggae but Lucky adds more musical instruments to his reggae and brings out the good flavour and enriched Reggae Music.
    His songs is just so soulful.

    I proposed to my wife in 2003 in Fiji & Lucky Dube had performed in 1994 or so & you couldn’t walk through any crowd or music store /center without hearing Lucky Dube. Fijians I will venture to say are ( haven’t been back since but will ) still hypnotized by him. He was like a Messiah really. Just incredible impact on a people who in their own rights are fascinating.

    Simply put he was gifted but also blessed to be loved by people . It was a combination of his lyrics, persona ,commitment, dedication & he foreshadowed it all before he passed. He must have known it all along.

  • @78audioguy
    @78audioguy Před 4 měsíci +3

    I had the honor of touring with him briefly as a production staff member during the summer of 2002. This video reminded me of a lot of memories I had made that summer, and I learned a bit about his past that I never even knew (b/c he was making music when I was a small child, and I was not aware of South African reggae until I was invited to their tour!).
    I remember when I heard about his passing, but I hadn't spoken to anybody in the group for a few years by then and didn't have direct contact info; but while moving some pics / videos to a new server I came across my pics from that summer and started watching some videos to reminisce. I see Thuthukani has stepped up as the frontman. He isn't Lucky and has his own sound, but as he grows into the shoes he's starting to sound a little closer to how Lucky did it (in watched a few videos online)
    One of these days I will need to reconnect, me and Thuthu got along well during our time together and a reconnection is long overdue!
    Sorry for rambling on what's in my head but after watching this I gotta get it out!
    PS... My time with him taught me that he was a genuine saint of a person, very caring and one of the most level headed people I ever met! He did not have an ounce of any negativity in his personality!
    This is rare for humans, and especially in the music business! Like another commenter mentioned, he will live on forever with the art he put on his canvas.

  • @capitalshelvesinternationa3008

    South Africa didn't know and don't know what legacy Lucky Dube had. The whole world accords Maximum Respect for his good message to the world. We lost a pan Africanist , a Friend and a global icon. I hope we could name different places after Him

      I cried when I watched this documentary. He may have been not robbed financially by recording companies but he was robbed credit and respect in SA. I agree. It is a pity that reggae music is no longer played

      @tsatsimafokoane1719 Před 4 měsíci

      I'm sorry i know your comment is more than a year old,but im curious why do you think he was assassinated by his people.. can you elaborate?

    • @78audioguy
      @78audioguy Před 4 měsíci

      ​​@@tsatsimafokoane1719I can explain for him... He was shot during a carjacking in front of his brother's home in his home town, just after dropping off his kids. He tried to drive off but ended up hitting a tree and I believe he was pronounced dead on the scene.
      I might have some of these details slightly off, but for the most part, that's how he was killed by his own people (somebody from his home town/country; not by his government, if that's how you read into the comment above)
      South Africa has always been a hot place for crime, from what I understand; It is possible that the assailants might not have even known who they killed until they saw it on the news!
      I'm not sure if they were ever caught in all the years since, but when it happened it was unknown who was responsible for his murder.
