Remembering Reggae Star Lucky Dube

South African Reggae artist, Lucky Dube was murdered in his homeland last night, October 19th. The world has lost a great entertainer who embraced Jamaican music and was an ambassador for the music. The tragedy reflects similar social issues facing both South Africa and Jamaica where crime has become apart of the daily lives of ordinary citizens.

Lucky Dube at 43 years old, often expresses his love for Jamaica. His song “I Wanna Take You To Jamaica” demonstrates his love and appreciation for the Jamaican culture which he adopted as his own. The world will surely miss this talented and gifted artist

Our hearts go out to his family especially his wife and seven kids.
