I FINALLY FOUND THIS SONG!!!!! I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THE NAME OF THIS ARTIST AND SONG TITLE SINCE I HEARD IT BACK IN 2001! All I ever got were Billie Holidae Version (No disrespect to her). Glad I finally found it!!!
I heard this song when I was in the military right around 9/11 and it was 2001. It's 2022 and it's still relevant, and it will be another 20 years when I'm 60 and I can bet it will still be relevant then. So sad I'm still not equal even after fighting for this country.
This man is so talented this record was genius it's a rendetion of Billie holidays song strange fruit . It's very real it shows that my people still go through the same struggles today as we did back then people need to wake up and recognise the truth!!!
Very powerfull song and music video he is great , racism still going on today its a sickness of the mind we are all people different colors. But weall have emotions, and gods children, love and blessings to all. MR DWAYNE, CONTINUE YOUR MUSIC LOVE PEACE , PROSPERITY AND MANY OF GODS BLESSSINGS, ALWAYS.😇😇😇😇😇😇❤❤❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💯💯💯💯💯💯
I really googled bits and pieces of this song and had the lyrics all wrong but I found it !!! With all that’s going on right now I no wonder this song randomly came to mind.
Hey Dwayne it's Rainey I love this song strange fruit..problem is a lot of people don't know what it is not trying to bother you but you been on my mind..now a days people don't know it's about black people being hung from trees...it's a great song anyway I just needed to say hey..
Most don't know about the Devil's Punch Bowl. Natchez, MS, internment camps post slavery its the epitome of the song "Strange Fruit" Billie Holiday and but this version by Dwayne Wiggins makes me think of the craziness we are dealing with right now, its been going on centuries and seems more frequent because of video and social media.
This Song Here And The Whole Album Was Slept On In 2000, I Guess They Didn't Dwayne Serious As A Solo Artist... How Sad! :( Just Keep Doin Ur Thing Man!!

Southern trees bear strange fruit. Blood on the leaves, blood on the roots. Society, there's no truth. Tell me what's really going on.
I love this song use to hear my parents play this as a child now I’m 32 and understand it so clearly
Reality still the same ....this is so sad!
I remember jamming to this through the Motown website back in college.

@636lover LOL Same Here It Took Me Like 5-7 Years to Find This Damn Song!
This video is very important and evident to the Trayvon Martin case..also take you back to Emmit Till
In addition to this song being a (near) cover of the old jazz classic, it also might sound like Boz Scaggs' 1980 hit "Jojo."
i remember when it came out....it was 7.99 at camelot.....when all the other cds were 15.99 and up....
Only 7000 views????? WTF???
1:31. Lol. .......but seriously BLM
@taytaboo75 agree!!
@636lover same here lol
A
Not bad, but its got nothing on Billie.
DAM ITS NOW 2022! We must fight for our brothers and sisters of a darker Complexion!
