The Lucky Dube Legacy Company has launched a global initiative to collect fan stories about the iconic reggae artiste’s impact, coinciding with what would have been his 60th birthday this year.
Lucky Dube, one of Africa’s most celebrated musicians, continues to resonate with audiences worldwide years after his passing. With over 22 albums and 20 international awards to his name, Dube’s music remains widely streamed across the continent and beyond.
The Legacy Company, according to an APO statement, is now calling on fans to share personal anecdotes of how Dube’s music touched their lives. These stories could range from live concert experiences to chance encounters with fellow fans, or even meetings with the artiste himself.
“We know that Lucky’s music has had a deep and lasting personal impact on many,” a spokesperson for the Legacy Company stated. “His music inspired hope, political and social activism in many places around the world – often the common unifier amongst those who heard and loved his music.”
Selected stories will feature in a commemorative anthology of Dube’s musical career, to be distributed worldwide. The Legacy Company may also use submissions in social media posts and future projects.
Dube, known for his message of equality, peace and love, often credited his success to his devoted fan base. This initiative aims to honour that relationship and further preserve his legacy.
Fans can submit their stories via direct message on Dube’s official social media platforms or by emailing stories@luckydubelegacy.com.
The Lucky Dube Legacy Company, established by the artiste’s estate after his death, continues to manage Dube’s musical legacy and spread his message globally. They welcome contact from anyone who worked with Dube during his career or has relevant information to share.
