Lucky Dube (August 3, 1964 – October 18, 2007)

I just read that the great Lucky Dube was shot dead in South Africa last Thursday. What a tremendous loss after a 25-year career recording 22 albums in Zulu, English and Afrikaans.

Listen to a few of his memorable tracks here:

Poet's Nook: "You Don't Have to Act Crazy Anymore" by Hafiz

You Don't Have to Act Crazy Anymore
We all know you were good at that.

Now retire, my dear,
From all that hard work you do
Of bringing pain to your sweet eyes and heart.

Look in a clear mountain mirror -
See the Beautiful Ancient Warrior
And the Divine elements
You always carry inside

That infused this Universe with sacred Life
So long ago
And join you Eternally
With all Existence

- with God!

-Hafiz

Love him or hate him--one thing is undeniably clear: Cornel West is a rare genius who elucidates with impressive style the underpinnings of our complex, interwoven reality. His latest CD, "Never Forget" features some of the brightest lights in R&B and Hip Hop such as Prince, Andre 3000, Jill Scott, Talib Kweli and KRS-1.

Fame is vapor
Popularity an accident
Riches take wings.
Only one thing
