Re: Lucky Dube shot dead
Hey I found these fun facts about Lucky. Kinda neat.
He was actually christened Lucky. His real name is Lucky Philip Dube.
His musical interest began whilst singing in the choir at school.
Lucky does not drink or smoke cigarettes or marijuana despite the reputation most Rastafarians bear.
He loathes dogs due to being attacked by one as a child.
He once featured in a movie which was aptly titled ‘Getting Lucky’ and starred in the feature film 'Voice In The Dark' alongside actor John Savage.
His touring band was called The Slaves.
He holds the record for having the longest product endorsement for a musician ever in South Africa - The product was Ace Maize Meal.
He is the only South African artist to have a record signed to Motown Records.
Lucky recorded a duet with Sinead O'Connor over the internet.
His favourite bands are Toto, Bruce Hornsby and Aerosmith.
He has won over 20 awards for his musical contribution - both in South Africa and internationally.
He has been using the same sound engineer since he started recording music, Dave Segal, the same man who also accompanies him on every tour.
He is a big fan of horses, owning several of his own on his farm in Kwa-Zulu Natal.
He has a room in his house which holds nothing but his piano - it is here he writes his music.
His favourite movies are horror and mafia movies.
He was the first South African to have an enhanced CD released.
Lucky Dube is survived by his wife Zanele and his 7 children Bongi, Nonkululeko, Thokozani, Laura, Siyanda, Philani and his brand new three-month old baby Melokuhle.

Ok, I thought I'll cheat and look up all the reggae websites that have the lyrics that have possible back up stories to the origins of this song....no dice!

Re: Lucky Dube shot dead
Hmmmmm I really wanna know. My only theory is that the kid is illegitimate and the mother didn't want anyone to know. And that the mother kicked the dad to the curb and won't let him see the boy anymore.
