Lucky Dube - Victims
Although my memory is betraying me as to my age when I first discovered Lucky Dube. I do remember though it was in my dad's office where I was put to count various forms of currency from that day's operation. All I knew his voice resonated very much like that of Bob Marley and Garnet Silk.
Throughout the years The House of Exile and Victims have become centerpieces in my collection of albums. So sad that Lucky Dube's life came to such a tragic end. Victims was released in 1993, after 17 years although we've made some strides we still have a long way to go in terms of equality and human rights. Sometimes it truly feels like for every step we take forward, we are truly taking two steps back.
"Still licking wounds from brutality,
Still licking wounds from humiliation,
She said all these words and the wrinkles on her face became perfect trails for the tears" - Lucky Dube
