Prophecy To Release Lucky Dube Tribute, Dube's Son In Documentary

Jamaican artist, Prophecy, created a beautiful tribute to Lucky Dube, the beloved reggae artist who was gunned down in South Africa in October. The tribute song "Chance - A Tribute To Lucky Dube" and accompanying music video will be available for a limited time from the combined efforts of Jah Birth (the Kingston label that Prophecy is on) and the South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC). The single and music video were written and recorded/filmed in Jamaica. It's already receiving airplay on 18 SABC stations and getting a super positive response (naturally).The SABC is also producing a documentary that follows Lucky Dube's oldest son, Thokozani, as he "retraces his father’s steps through reggae music". Thokozani travels to Jamaica to find the roots of his father's music and meets up with Prophecy who travels back to South Africa to pay tribute to the reggae hero and humanitarian.Sources for this article:Reggae FilmsBlogMusicChartPon Di Wire in XLR8RLucky Dube - "Rastas Never Die" They played this song at his funeral; it is Dube describing his own death during life...
