Lucky Dube has been hailed as ‘The shining star of African reggae (afropop.com) and ‘South Africa’s biggest-selling contemporary artist’ (Mail & Guardian).
He was a modern-day hero with a message that touched millions of people’s hearts around the world. With an incredible 22 albums under his musical belt, he proved himself one of not only South Africa’s, but also the world’s greatest reggae superstars.
His songs were based on three main things - political issues, social issues and personal issues - things that play an important role in everyone’s lives.
From the release of his first reggae album in 1985 to his present superstar status today, Lucky maintained the humble nature that brought him closer to the people that so inspired his music. He toured the world more times over than anyone could dream of and shared stages with names such as Maxi Priest, Sinead O-Connor, Peter Gabriel, Michael Jackson, Seal, Ziggy Marley, Celine Dion, Sting and many, many others.
